### 1/5 — 更新后不好用

*2026-05-05*

根本找不到开发者，我把第一页打完了，但是到了第二页的时候我手动划上去，打完一个字，他又跳到第一页来了这个版本不好用

**Developer response:** 你好，我们的反馈邮件一直都在，你反馈的问题已经修复在2.5.3上请升级，谢谢

### 5/5 — 键盘皮肤

*2026-04-04*

希望出一个键盘皮肤，哪个输入法都可以，让我们这些还不熟悉双拼输入法的人可以日常中使用双拼键盘🙏

### 3/5 — iPad无法通过妙控键盘进行学习输入

*2026-03-10*

已经开启了实体键盘输入，但按键无反应，后面发现需要按tab键选择到中间部分才行。若切换为虚拟键盘，横屏情况下，无法完整显示。

**Developer response:** 你好，问题已修复，请更新到2.5.0

### 5/5 — 感谢作者，非常喜欢！

*2026-01-19*

我是虎码使用者，请作者有时间可以加入一下虎码，非常感谢！

### 1/5 — 垃圾

*2026-01-03*

国区收1块，外区免费

### 3/5 — 希望能推出Mac端

*2025-01-27*

体验还算可以，唯一可惜没有Mac端，即使是Mac上直接安装软件也容易崩溃。已经入了会员，希望能改进

### 5/5 — 希望增加小鹤音形的支持

*2024-10-28*

通过App的帮助已经熟练掌握了双拼，现在想进一步学习音形，希望能增加这一部分的学习，谢谢！

### 5/5 — 学双拼的神器

*2024-09-08*

不到一个小时就让我记住了小鹤输入法的键位，牛啊！！！（现在用的就是双拼输入法打字
基础练习走了完整的一遍，还试了文章练习的爱莲说，感觉基本掌握了，就是需要一点点反应时间，不过这个学习速度我已经很满意了，谢谢作者开发出这么好用的app

**Developer response:** 🥰

### 5/5 — 好用，不过有点贵

*2024-06-19*

实话实说，练习双拼，电脑上挺多免费的软件的，如果“只是在ipad上练习”这种极致限定的场景下，这个app真的不错。

### 5/5 — 希望可以换 icon

*2024-05-26*

充值支持了，真的很不错，满满打字的幸福感。不过希望加入可以换 icon 的新功能
