Step into the Galactic Universe with Datapad | Aurebesh Translator! Discover the galaxy's secrets with Datapad, your ultimate tool for exploring the rich languages and alphabets of a vast galaxy. Whether you're deciphering ancient scripts, decoding glyphs with your camera, or crafting your own messages, Datapad empowers you to translate, learn, and share with ease, inside a sleek, immersive galactic-themed interface. Powerful Translation Tools: A robust two-way translator converts text between English and a wide range of galactic scripts: six Aurebesh fonts (Standard, Core, Cantina, Nexus, Droid, Pixel), two versions of Mando'a (Old and New), and six Outer Rim scripts. Digraph rendering is supported across all Aurebesh fonts for accurate combinations like "ch," "ae," and "th." Optical Scanner, Decode with Your Camera: Point your camera at Aurebesh, Mando'a, or Outer Rim glyphs and Datapad reads them back to English, fully on-device and completely offline. The script and font are detected automatically, so there's nothing to configure. Scan live from the camera, or upload a holo from your photo library or the Files app, so screenshots and saved images decode too. No servers, no uploads. (Beta: most accurate on clean text and screenshots.) Alphabet Viewer: Master the galaxy's scripts with a detailed viewer. Explore each letter's name, its English equivalent, and more, from Aurebesh to the warrior-like Mando'a and versatile Outer Rim alphabets. Aurebesh Keyboard: A visual-only Aurebesh keyboard for stylistic use within the app. Due to iOS restrictions, it does not output Aurebesh outside the app. Share Your Galactic Discoveries: Turn any translation into a beautiful, shareable galactic image and send it to friends, fellow enthusiasts, or across social media. Archives & Trials: The Archives module automatically saves your history as Holo Records and stores your own notes as Holo Entries. The Trials module helps you master galactic scripts through quizzes and challenges. Kyber Crystals & Hidden Secrets: Attune your Datapad to a kyber crystal to reshape the entire app's color. Choose from a spectrum of accents and named crystals, or design your own with a gradient and name. Then go hunting: hidden crystals are concealed within the app, including an unstable Black Crystal and a spectrum-shifting RGB Crystal, each with its own living animation and dramatic activation burst. Immersive Galactic Interface: A dynamic animated starfield, a jump-to-lightspeed hyperspace launch, and a holographic navigation menu with a live galactic clock bring the interface to life. Full Script Immersion Mode replaces nearly every label with your chosen script, perfect for immersive learning and in-universe use. Everything is customizable in the System module, or turn effects off for a distraction-free experience. Customize Your Experience: Personalize Datapad with crystal themes, accent colors, font choices, animation controls, starfield styles, and layout preferences. Apple Watch Integration: Translate and view scripts on the go with the Datapad Apple Watch app. Includes widgets and complications for quick access from your wrist, lock screen, or home screen, including the Galactic Chrono, which tells time in your chosen script. Offline & Private: Datapad works fully offline, including the camera Scanner. It's ad-free, subscription-free, and collects no personal data. All activity stays on your device. Why Choose Datapad?

But apart from that this app is great **Developer response:** Hello there! Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm really glad you're enjoying the app. Those are great suggestions. Features like swipe typing, word predictions, and the space bar cursor control are more challenging to implement with custom keyboards, but thanks to your feedback I'll definitely take a closer look at what's possible in a future update. Have a great day! Warm regards, Abubakr Elmallah ### 5/5 — Fire translator *2026-04-09* I love this app - been using it for years, also there’s a bug where it won’t let me open the app on iOS 26 iPhone 16e plz fix it love this app. **Developer response:** I’m glad you’re enjoying the app! People like you are the reason why I made this app! If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to email me at ammelmallah@icloud.com! Have a great day! ### 4/5 — Awesome app, one idea that would make it 5 stars *2026-02-16* When you are in the data pad looking at the letters and names for the letters, you can click on them to enlarge them. I think you should be able to scroll through the letters while the letters are enlarged. **Developer response:** Edit: Update is live on 3.6.7 with your suggestion added! Thanks so much for the suggestion! I’m really glad you explored the Datapad letter view and took the time to share this idea. You’re absolutely right, being able to scroll through the letters while they’re enlarged would make browsing much smoother. I’m happy to say that because of you, this suggestion will be added in an upcoming update by next week, so keep an eye out for it! As always, feel free to reach out if you have any other ideas or feedback at ammelmallah@icloud.com. Thanks again, have a great day! Warm regards, Abubakr Elmallah ### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS APP!! *2025-10-03* I LOVE THIS APP!!! **Developer response:** I’m glad you’re enjoying the app! People like you are the reason why I made this app! If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to email me at ammelmallah@icloud.com! Have a great day! ### 4/5 — Perfect to help with my friends for our sessions *2025-08-31* This has been an amazing app to help learn the languages and characters used in the Star Wars Galaxy. The only thing that’s kept me from giving a full 5 is that there isn’t an option to learn the Sith language and script. Besides that this is the perfect app for fans of the Star Wars franchise. **Developer response:** Hello there Incydious (W name), Edit: It is now back out! I’m glad you’re enjoying this app! That really warms my heart! As for your suggestion, I did have a legends version of Sith Script which I unfortunately removed from the app because it is legends and not canon, and instead replaced it with the canon Old Tongue which is the script of the Sith! However, because of your review, I have decided to add back Legends Sith Script!! It is being updated and published to the App Store, though you may have to wait a couple of days to see the update (3.6.4). I hope that fixes your issue with this app and it becomes perfect for you! However, if it doesn’t, you can always, ALWAYS reach out to me at ammelmallah@icloud.com for any questions, feedback, or suggestions! Have a great day! Warm regards, Abubakr Elmallah ### 5/5 — For the republic 🔥🔥🔥 *2025-08-06* My boy count dooku told me to download this app before he got beheaded and it’s so good **Developer response:** Nah bruh watch out for your “friend dooku,” he part of the CIS clankers, we ain’t for that big dawg. FOR THE REPUBLIC. “He was too dangerous to be left alive.” Though he deserved to be slimed, he lowkey was gangster though: “Your swords please. We don’t want to make a mess of things in front of the chancellor.” Anyway I’m glad you’re enjoying this app fellow clone brother, let me know if you have any questions, feedback or suggestions at ammelmallah@icloud.com! Warm regards, Abubakr Elmallah ### 5/5 — I was here first, and we’ve come so far *2025-07-25* My story begins on reddit (jumpscare) and I had made all sorts of posts on the r/Aurebesh Reddit, making a series of posts between me and a different user where the story was of me being this other user’s commander and leading them to try Dr. pepper strawberries and cream, and eventually they got lost, ending the story on a terrible note. I was sad, having lost motivation I stopped doing aurebesh posts for a long time. Then I came across a post made by a Redditor (I forgot what it was) and we ended up chatting, he told me about the app he was making, and it was this app. I HAD MET TEH CREATOR OF THIS APP. I was star struck for someone who hadn’t become a celebrity yet. I tried this app in its early days and it’s been an amazing journey seeing how it’s improved since.. This app is so cool and it’s so awesome how professional it looks now!! **Developer response:** Hello there Mr. Botmim, Thank you so much for the kind words and the awesome review. I genuinely loved reading it; it warmed my heart! It means the world to me to hear from someone who's been around since the early days of the app back in June 2023! It’s amazing to know you’ve stuck with the app through its growth. Your support and feedback have helped shape what it is today. As Master Yoda might say, “Truly wonderful, the mind of a Star Wars fan is.” If you ever have suggestions, questions, or just want to talk about Star Wars or Aurebesh again, feel free to reach out anytime at ammelmallah@icloud.com. Warm regards, Abubakr Elmallah ### 5/5 — Since last update can use datapad keyboard on other apps. *2025-07-22* The add keyboard datapad option in ios is gone. **Developer response:** Edit: I figured it out! I got rid of some useless functions and it now works properly! I'm using it right now! Be on the lookout for Datapad 3.2.3 in the next coming days! Hey Deathfury93, I’m glade you like my app and keyboard! I made it for awesome people like you who love Star Wars and Aurebesh as much if not even more than I do! As for keyboard, it took me days and countless hours to figure out how to make it work and make it work well. The final iteration right now is almost like a makeshift solution and because of that, it does have a lot of problems, including everything you mentioned. Because of these problems, the keyboard’s main reason for existing is so people can use it in the app or use it every once in a while, rather than it being a full fledged daily keyboard. However because of your review, I’m going to look into it and try my best to fix the keyboard, just because of you! Thank you for your review, if you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions, feel free to email me at ammelmallah@icloud.com! Have a good day! ### 5/5 — Great Star Wars App for translating Aurebesh, Mando’a, and others! *2025-07-11* Very good app, use it a lot, especially in Galaxy’s Edge! ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2025-06-02* This app is so cool! As soon as I figured out what aurebesh is, and how to read it, this was the tool. I also use this to find the layout of the aurebesh keyboard, since it isn’t the same as the normal ones. **Developer response:** Hello there, KingPfTheNerds66, Thank you so much for the kind words, I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such an awesome review! I’m so glad the app helped you out as you were figuring out Aurebesh. It’s always amazing to hear from users who are exploring the language and using the tool in creative ways! Your review warmed my heart and made my day, thank you so much! You clearly dove right into the galaxy far, far away, and it means a lot to me knowing this app played even a small part in your learning journey. That’s exactly what I hoped it would do for amazing Star Wars fans like you. If you ever have ideas, suggestions, or questions, feel free to reach out at ammelmallah@icloud.com, I’d love to hear from you! Have a great day!
