User reviews

非常好用嘅粵拼keyboard

總體嚟講呢一隻係非常之好用嘅粵語拼音鍵盤。

我希望在未來可以增加嘅功能:emoji可以出現喺預選詞語提供給使用者選擇,呢個功能對於聊天嚟講係比較高頻使用嘅

同音字

非常好用的輸入法。因為不是經常打字,有時會執筆忘字。如果可以有選同音字功能就完美了。

挺好,不過

幾好用嘅一款鍵盤,但係可唔可以支持模糊拼音?

如今懶音已是普遍,支持包容懶音嘅輸入對於大部份人都會更加方便。

比如話而家想輸「你」同「來」嘅時候,就一定要輸「nei5」同「loi4」其實亦都可以支持拼爲「lei5」同「lei4」。

有或者「愛」哩個字,絕大部份人都會讀成「ngoi3」而唔係「oi3」,更加可以支持「ngoi3」哩個拼法。

Great app!

I love this app, it makes it so much easier to communicate in cantonese! I love that you can also type in Hanyu Pinyin, Changjie, Sucheng, and even stroke order! I also love the ability to switch between simplified and traditional characters seamlessly! 多謝晒!

Update: the newest update is even better! Chinese oral language support as well as a facelift and a restructure of the yale layout! Absolute 10/10!

可唔可以加耶魯拼音?

都ok,不過本人覺得耶魯拼音對用廣東話做母語嘅人準啲
