## What is Cordia?

Cordia is a keyboard that teaches you a language while you text.

Type your message in English in any app (iMessage, WhatsApp, Snapchat, Instagram) and the translation appears live above the keys, word by word, as you type. Your message still sends in English, so you learn without changing how you talk to people. When you want to send the translation instead, tap it once and it swaps in.

WHY CORDIA IS DIFFERENT
• Live, inline translation. No separate translate mode, no waiting, no copy-paste.
• Word meanings as you type. See what each English word became in the sentence and tap any word to hear it pronounced.
• Pinyin, romaji and romanization. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Hindi, Thai, Arabic and Ukrainian show a reading line so you can say what you see.
• Translate what they sent you. Copy a message you received and tap the clipboard button to read it in English.
• Autocorrect that works. Typos get fixed when you hit space, so "dsy" translates as "day". Backspace undoes.
• Fully on-device. Cordia uses Apple's built-in translation engine. It works offline and contains no networking code. Nothing you type is ever sent anywhere.
• Streaks and progress. Turn on history (off by default, stored only on your phone) to see your streak, words learned, and sentences practiced.

LANGUAGES
Italian, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Arabic, Dutch, Hindi, Indonesian, Polish, Russian, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese.

FREE AND PAID OPTIONS
One language is free forever — you choose which one — with unlimited translations. Cordia Plus adds two more language slots you can swap any time. All Languages is a one-time purchase that unlocks the full set permanently. Paid plans let you switch languages right on the keyboard.

PRIVACY
No account. No analytics. No servers. The keyboard asks for Full Access only so it can read the settings you choose in the app. It never connects to the internet.

Cordia Plus is a monthly auto-renewing subscription billed to your Apple ID. It renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in Settings → your name → Subscriptions. All Languages is billed once to your Apple ID and does not expire.
