## What is Baybayin Plus?

The first version of this app was released around 2012 with hope of extending the reach of the Baybayin Script beyond the corners of museum and classroom. The success of this app and the reviews from different corners of world has prompted me to improve this further. 
In this version more translation features are added, which includes live translation, snap and translate (from a photo), and text translations with multiple language support. The keyboard layout are also improved in relation to the screen fit.

And finally, I hope to continue to build a community of Baybayin advocates and curious folks by giving this app the capability to post images which can be commented or brought for community discussion. Search BaybayinPlus in Facebook, for the support of this app.
I hope this can help stir the interest in Baybayin and reach more script enthusiasts. - Marlon

### 4/5 — Needs update

*2016-08-16*

It's quite different and it's good don't get me wrong but needs lots of update from the fonts up to how to write it properly. Fonts should be clear not too bold.

You can search words that you want to translate! You can write the letters and there's a guide for each letters! The only think that i want to ask is how to delete my writings, is there an erase button?
