Looks interesting but crashes consistently. I also don't like the pressure tactics. - buy it within 3 minutes or we'll double the price!!!!

Cant use the keyboard without paying. Thats quite literally all i want in an app. Unfortunately Google play doesnt have an app for this so i cant make my conlang.

Can you add audios for co-articulated consonants and also include the auxillary symbols and tones. For the demonstration of tones, you can use av phonetics for reference.
