## What is Rune Writer?

Turn everyday words into ancient runes. Type a name, message, or phrase and watch Rune Writer convert your text into runic characters instantly. Rune Writer makes it easy to convert English text into runes, explore their meanings, and share your creations.

Start writing in Elder Futhark for free.

WRITE IN THREE RUNE ALPHABETS

Watch your words become runes instantly. Explore three historical writing systems:

• Elder Futhark — the classic 24-rune alphabet
• Younger Futhark — the Viking Age alphabet
• Anglo-Saxon Futhorc — an expanded runic alphabet

Switch between alphabets and discover different ways to represent your words.

TYPE RUNES ANYWHERE

Use the built-in rune keyboard to type directly in Messages, Notes, and other compatible apps. Insert real Unicode runes, not images.

No Internet access required, everything stays offline and local.

CREATE & SHARE RUNIC IMAGES

Turn names, quotes, and messages into beautiful, shareable images. Include your original text or showcase the runes alone. No watermarks.

EXPLORE THE RUNIC ALPHABET

Browse individual runes, discover their names, and learn their Latin letter equivalents. Inspect your converted text rune by rune.

SAVE YOUR WRITING

Keep a local history of your runes. With Pro, revisit previous entries and restore them whenever inspiration strikes.

COPY & SHARE INSTANTLY

Copy runes as Unicode text or share them with your favorite apps. Spaces and punctuation are preserved.

UNLOCK RUNE WRITER PRO

Enjoy Elder Futhark translation, its keyboard, copying, sharing, and basic rune exploration for free.

Unlock additional alphabets, their keyboard layouts, image export, and history access with one simple purchase.

No subscriptions.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Everything is processed on your iPhone, even without an internet connection. No account or tracking. The keyboard never collects what you type.

Start with a word. Make it runic.

Note: Rune Writer is a runic transliteration tool, not a historical language translator. Results represent modern text using runic characters and may differ from historical spellings.
