## What is Cats InputPad Pro?

Writing Chinese is a breeze if you use the Chinese Alphabet Teaching System. You can also input the same way as you write Chinese. It is the fastest way of inputting Chinese, and even better, by using it, you also learn how to write Chinese characters better. It is the ideal way of implementing the EasyChinese method of learning Chinese.

Version 2.0 is fully modernized for today's iPhones and iPads: full-screen support on every device, a native keyboard look in light and dark mode, and improved stability throughout. Compose your text in the app, then copy it for use anywhere.

This is the complete Pro version — no ads, long-press reverse lookup showing the stroke code of any character, and the IICore characters database for input of more than 12,000 Chinese characters.
