I'm glad it works not just within the app, but also on notes BUT NOT on google docs. Oddly "ĝ,j,ḫ" do not work with vowels, I can't type "ĝu" in cuneiform. It's very frustrating and needs to be fixed! On a minor note I'm not a massive fan of the keyboard's aesthetic; it deserves an update so it can match all the other apple keyboards. Also, there aren't multiple ways of getting to a cuneiform symbol. I can type "an" and "𒀭" will come up but if I try and type "diĝir" nothing appears. I like the subscript function it has when transcribing characters; I don't have to type "e2" or "a4". That's a nice touch :) ### 5/5 — Very cool. *2017-07-21* Using this to get more familiar with the Code of Ur-Namma and the Code of Hammurabi. Taken together with the Pennsylvania Sumerian Dictionary, it really speeds the recognition process. ### 5/5 — 素晴らしい！！！ *2016-05-05* 神だと思う ### 5/5 — Amazing and professional! *2016-04-26* Thanks a lot for this App, indeed thank you. Great job. I've got wish: what about the same App with the neo-Assyrian, the Hittite, and the hieroglyphic Luwian writings? ### 5/5 — 超絶神アプリ *2015-05-30* アッカド語を勉強しているので、とても助かります！！今までアッカド語、楔形文字のアプリはなかったのですごく重宝してます(*^◯^*) ### 5/5 — 感謝 *2015-05-11* こんなアプリがあるとは驚きです。ありがとうございます ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — does Not work *2020-04-30, version 1.36* Whats with iOS 13 Support? Looking forward to it ### 2/5 — Review *2018-05-03* Doesn’t work ### 3/5 — Ashur *2025-05-14, version 2.0.4* Irtam 𒅕𒀅𒀴𒀵𒀀𒆕𒈜𒂵 ### 3/5 — Keyboard *2024-08-12, version 2.0.2* I’m trying to use this app on my iphone. It types the first letter in cuneiform and the rest in english. Can’t find any instructions anywhere. ### 4/5 — does what it says on the tin spectacularly *2021-10-09, version 1.40* my only issue is that it isn't graphically unified with the rest of the rest of the ios keyboard but that's a non-issue and me being annoying ### 4/5 — Super helpful with some hitches *2021-09-25* This app was a lifesaver when it came to creating vocab flash cards. I have had problems finding a few signs, specifically geš, which (tree, wood, or determinative sign for things made of wood) ### 4/5 — This App is of Fine Quality *2021-03-10* The app is far better in quality than the copper ingots sold by that rascal Ea-Nasir. I am certain that the programmer would never send my messengers empty-handed into enemy territory. ### 4/5 — It’s really good except... *2018-01-22* I really like this app and that you can copy and paste the cuneiform into regular text documents and other things. The only problem I have had is with the “ng” character or the “g” with the squiggle which doesn’t see to bring up any cuneiform. ### 4/5 — Good app, but confusing *2017-05-18* Right now I mostly can't figure out how to type𒀹 or 𒀺. Signs with straightforward names are easier. The numbers really don't do anything and I haven't figured out how to do certain accented vowels. ### 4/5 — 面白い *2016-01-09* くさび形文字好きにとってとても面白いアプリだと思います。文字の一覧があるとより使いやすくてありがたいです。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-05-25, version 2.0.5* Now i can spam my friend with the epic of gilgamesh ### 5/5 — thanks *2026-01-24, version 2.0.5* 𒁹 happy to see human first writing developed by Sumerian to be live and digital, thank you ### 5/5 — It’s great but *2026-01-22* The sign that is used for the number 6 𒀾 is wrong. The actual representation of the 6 sign is 𒁹𒁹𒁹 𒁹𒁹𒁹 but much closer together than that. The app overall is great but that is the only mistake that I have found. The sign that you need is called ash3 or 𒐋. ### 5/5 — Works very well on iPhone *2025-11-12, version 2.0.4* Contrary to an earlier review, this app works brilliantly on the iPhone. I was unable to get it to work on the iPad, perhaps because you are supposed to type in a small iPhone-sized box that appears on the side. I had been trying to write straight into Word, which didn’t work. ### 5/5 — Extremely handy, even works with whatsapp *2023-10-21, version 1.43* Does what it promises, and is the best option for writing cuneiform that i know of ### 5/5 — Just what I needed! *2023-03-11* Thank you for constructing this and making it free to use for all of us trying to learn the tongue that governed the world before the languages were scattered abroad. ### 5/5 — Extremely Convenient *2021-11-05* This is SUCH an improvement from wrestling with unicode, thank you very much to the developers for making this! My only hope is that eventually a version that works on macbooks comes out. ### 5/5 — Very good! *2020-05-12* Only comment is that sometimes you go to type something and it doesn’t show up, but usually it can be found under another name. For some nouns containing ĝ, you have to type a g or n or m instead... which is fine. Very few signs are actually missing-missing (however a noticeable one is 𒊊 Sumerian: piriĝ | Akkadian: Lāmu) but like I said, rare occurrence. No other comparable app, and considering the probably low demand, a very good one and an appreciated service. ### 5/5 — 最初は... *2019-04-02* 最初は、ん？どうやって使うんだ？？ って感じだったけどアプリの説明を見て あ！アッカド語のキーボードが追加されるアプリなんだーって分かりました（笑）興味深いです！ ### 5/5 — 面白い *2018-10-15* シンプルに面白い。 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
