### 5/5 — Nothing comes close to this

*2026-06-08, version 1.7*

The fact that I can use latin alphabet to type in Amharic is a game changer and time saver.

### 5/5 — Geez

### 3/5 — Good but lack some features

*2025-05-10, version 1.7*

I have been using this keyboard for 5+ years and loved it. But I am always struggling to type punctuations that are crucial to write Amharic. It will be perfect if you can add them somewhere somehow.

### 5/5 — By far the best Amharic keyboard

*2025-04-17, version 1.7*

I’ve been using Agerigna keyboard for about 7 years now and thought this time my friends are always amazed by how fast I can type Amharic on my phone. But it was not until Agerigna went offline for some time in March (?)  2025 and I had to explore other keyboards that I realized how well set up and intuitive this keyboard really is. In my experience, Agerigna is the easiest and quickest way to type Amharic mainly owing to the way the 6 variations of each main (ግዕዝ) letter appear at the top for easy access at a click of the letter. I’m surprised many others have not imitated this simple and effective model. In any case, I’m super glad Agerigna is back now;  hope it stays for good, and kudos to whoever produced it! በርቱ :)

### 4/5 — Great job

*2025-04-07, version 1.7*

Keep helping people

### 5/5 — Nice

*2024-12-22, version 1.7*

Minor

### 5/5 — ምርጥ አፕሊኬሽን ነው

*2024-12-20, version 1.7*

አንደኛ ነው! ወድጄዋለሁ!

### 2/5 — Include all the necessary punctuation marks

*2024-11-08, version 1.7*

I do use this app daily more than I do other apps in my mobile phone and I like it. However; as an Amharic user, I would like to use all the punctuation marks but this apps couldn’t include all of them. For example Amharic comma (ነጠላ ሰረዝ, ድርብ ሰረዝ, ቃላ አጋኖ- exclamation marks) and others. The developers of this application need to include these missing functionalities and update it for users. 
Updated on 11/07/2024
====================
I gave 5 stars to this application four or five years ago and I recommend its developers include some missing Amharic punctuation marks. They haven’t improved anything yet. Now I downgraded the stars to 2. Hopefully, will make it back 5 if they fix the problem sooner than later. 
With Best Wishes!
