## What is CatKey?

CatKey is the only iOS keyboard dedicated to Catalan language support. When Apple removed Catalan spell checking in iOS 17.4, millions of Catalan speakers lost a basic tool. CatKey brings it back - and makes it better.

BUILT FOR CATALAN SPEAKERS
CatKey (teclat catala) was created because no existing keyboard treats Catalan as a first-class language. Gboard and SwiftKey support 75+ languages but none offer dedicated Catalan spell checking. CatKey is Catalan-first, not an afterthought.

CORE FEATURES (FREE FOREVER)
- Catalan spell checking (corrector ortografic) with a dedicated dictionary
- Autocorrect that understands Catalan word structure
- Word prediction with smart suggestions
- Seamless Catalan-Spanish bilingual switching with automatic language detection
- Full QWERTY layout with all Catalan characters via long-press (accents on a, e, i, o, u, cedilla c, interpunct)
- Number and symbol keyboards
- Haptic feedback with adjustable intensity
- Sound feedback on key presses
- Adjustable keyboard height: compact, standard, or tall
- Space bar shows detected language (Catala, Espanol, English)
- Step-by-step onboarding guide for first-time setup
