Koreksi Letak Sandangan

Saat menggunakan taling tarung & sandangan lain yg posisinya di atas (misal: wulu, cecak, layar), posisinya kurang tepat bukan di atas aksaranya, tetapi di atas tanda tarung. Mohon bisa dikoreksi.

Layout

Sudah terbiasa dengan layout keyboard aksara jawa di macbook yang menggunakan abjad aksara sesuai dengan abjad yang ada di keyboard qwerty. Jadi lebih gampang dihafalkan.

Kalau boleh saran jangan diurutkan hanacaraka tapi disesuaikan layout qwerty saja lebih mudah.

The Dev. Response is great!

My previous review was a mistake. I’ve mistakenly using “Pasangan NYA”. It does can write Om Swastyastu “ ꦎꦴꦀꦱ꧀ꦮꦱ꧀ꦠꦾꦱ꧀ꦏꦸ “

The developer really keeping us in touch with them. Letting them know if their customers have any problems using it ( whether it’s a mistake by customer itself or a confused customer) and show customers how to do. If anything is lacking the developer immediately responded and corrected it.

AWESOME! Thank you for letting Balinese and Javanese Scripts alive ♥️

This App has made my home by-self Lerning Experience better!

With many languages I toy with (mainly languages like Arabic, Persian, Armenian, Hebrew etc.) use characters. It is always interesting to learn stuff. Using a website to teach me half of what I made in FlipaClip and Notes. There were Vowels I couldn’t find. (For EX ꦷ ꦹ ꦻ ꦴ ꦵ ꦳ ꦀ) when I found this app as my last resort, When I got it. IT HAD THEse DIACRITICS/VOWELS. Kk another thing is about the combos. With the online keyboard I had to mash characters now I have a preset setting! No problems. The third party keyboard is AWESOME. The ONLY complaint I have is that the keyboard is a little unnatural in layout. the space bar is missing in the 3rd format I think that is what it called, and that you can make the keys smaller. But anyway, your app has helped me with learning a lot of Javanese script!
ꦩꦠꦸꦂ ꦤꦸꦮꦸꦮ꧀‌! (: hopefully I did that correct (btw that means thank you. Wrote it with the keyboard (:

Edit: hello again! Thanks for the response, thanks for that tip on the Javanese script not using spaces. But that does make me wonder how the can differentiate on what word it is. Or maybe it is like Japanese. And your right! I do have a large IPad. And to be honest the key’s size does no bother any more. (: ꦩꦠꦸꦂꦤꦸꦮꦸꦮ꧀‌!

Response from developer

Thank you for your review! Javanese is traditionally written without spaces, so it doesn’t seem necessary to have space bars on every layer. If the keys feel big, you’re probably using a large iPad?

Good

Good app, easy to use. Maturnuwun
