### 5/5 — It was great until stopped working!

*2024-09-21*

It was great until stopped working!

### 3/5 — Can’t use

*2024-09-15, version 1.1.6*

I have bo Idea how I ended up like this but, I can’t write on the ascii section on the application, I tried to UnInstall and ReInstall countless times but It didn’t work, I would really appreciate further fix as this application really helped and assisted the passion I had for my heritage.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with my Iphone

*2024-07-29, version 1.1.6*

Iphone 15 pro IOS 17.5.1. The keyboard does not appear. There is no input field to the left of “Ascii:”

### 5/5 — Başarılı

*2021-12-28, version 1.0*

Göktürkçe bilen biri olarak şunu söylemek yakışır: Harflerin kullanımı doğru ve gayet başarılı bir uygulama.
Uygulamanın kullanımını öğrenmenizin büyük faydası olacaktır.
Örnek olarak 'Türk' sözcüğü verilecek olursa:
turk__(sözcük ve 2 alt çizgi)
Sözcüğün küçük harf ile başlamasına özen gösteriniz.
2 alt çizgi koymanızın sebebi ise, bir cümle oluşturmaktır.
'Ayşe tatile çıksın.' cümlesini şu şekilde yazabilirsiniz:
ayse__tatile__ciksin
Bu iki çizgiyi koymadığınız takdirde Göktürk alfabesinde anlamsız bir uzun sözcük oluşacaktır.
Süper bir uygulama! Tavsiye ederim!
