### 1/5 — Not Compatible With Hardware Keyboard

*2024-02-08*

For some reason on ipad, Apple does not let you switch between this keyboard and your other keyboards by using the magic keyboard shortcuts. So, control+space does not switch they keyboard. The only way to switch the keyboard is to actually pull it up on screen (which slows you down significantly) and then hit the button on the screen. Then it is impossible, from that menu, to remove the onscreen keyboard until you switch back to your primary keyboard. This is just very frustrating when you are used to the seamless transition between Apple’s own keyboards. You can also switch the keyboard by going into the keyboard settings but this takes even longer than the above approach. All in all, this keyboard does work, but, for me, did nothing to help me, despite spending 5 bucks on it.

### 1/5 — Help

*2023-10-24*

The rough breathings only seem to work within the app itself: when I try and out a rough breathing over a vowel in notes, reminders or on my revision cards app it just becomes an apostrophe! Can someone help me please?

### 3/5 — Help please!!!

*2023-04-03*

I've had this AGK for some years on my iPhones (8 then SE) and it's been great definitely 4/5* until just recently (and possibly since iOS 16.4 software update during week ended 31 March 2023). Now it's too big in Messages and WhatsApp for me to see what I'm tapping out. And every time I access it, it is bigger til it fills the screen. I emailed developers for assistance but maybe this'll get attention too. Thanks.

### 4/5 — Almost Perfect

*2020-10-18, version 1.4.0*

Of all the Polytonic Greek apps I’ve tried, this is the best. Hoplite sometimes doesn’t register keys, ipolytonic glitches out on certain apps. There is another paid app that I’ve not yet tried, and don’t think I will, because I am happy with this one.

The only thing I could think of that would improve it would be adding the ability to slide the cursor with the spacebar or equivalent. Sometimes I mistype an accent, and going back is trickier without that feature.

### 5/5 — Perfect for writing Koine Greek

*2020-05-17, version 1.4.0*

I cannot believe how amazing this app has been.  The iOS Greek keyboard is nearly useless for my studies.  I need the breathing marks and accents and this app supplies them all.  I love how I can customize (though limited) my keyboard to have a different look, instead of displaying the keyboard with the system font (which is ugly and boring).  I want to thank the developer for this very awesome keyboard.

### 5/5 — Absolutely great Polytonic Greek keyboard.

*2019-10-25*

I would give this app 10 stars if I could!  If you’re looking to input ancient greek into your iPad this is the app for you.  I don’t agree with the other reviewers: I’ve experienced no bugs in using this keyboard and as for predictive text?  For a free app that does exactly what it says on the tin I’ll do my own typing thank you.  My only issue is that it can be a slight nuisance using macrons on iota and upsilon but it shouldn’t be too hard to tweak this... please Mr Yichi Zhang...

### 4/5 — good, but...

*2019-06-16, version 1.4.0*

I‘m transitioning to an iPad Pro + smart keyboard, and this app has generally been working well. Three improvements would earn it five stars from me: 1) addition of a semicolon (for punctuating questions) 2) addition of a raised dot (for punctuating statements)  3) synchronize the app keyboard with the folio keyboard (currently I type the letters on my smart keyboard folio and tap the accents from the onscreen keyboard; but they do not match up as far as punctuation is concerned).

Apologies if these features are there and I am missing something - please respond, if so!

### 2/5 — Everything is manual

*2018-12-12, version 1.4.0*

Doesn’t predict words, and doesn’t auto correct anything. Even punctuation. Don’t we have this technology nowadays? I guess if you really want to type with the old formal way with the accent marks (psili, Dasia, perispomeni), this app is good. But you have to really know that old school method of formal Greek so that you know exactly which accent marks to (manually) use.

### 5/5 — The best

*2018-09-22, version 1.4.0*

This is the best Ancient Greek keyboard!!

### 5/5 — Great

*2018-05-18, version 1.4.0*

I’m starting to learn Koine Greek and this app is perfect for typing flashcards or typing notes to myself for study or for fun. Please continue to keep it running well!
