User reviews

WOW!!!

Where has this been all my life??? This makes learning Cantonese as cool as learning Mandarin these days. This is an amazing tool for typing in Cantonese without knowing the Mandarin pronunciation for a particular character, as I would use Hanyu Pinyin for typing in Chinese and I would have to hand write those characters exclusive to Cantonese. Great work!!!

Native english speaker, slowly learning cantonese to speak to grandparents and this has been amazing

真的太强大了,感动哭了,我记忆中很少甚至没有主动评论过好评,谢谢作者

要是多一个支持普拼更好了,不过已经很优秀了,一定要活下去

Please add Yale romanization

I downloaded this because the app Cantoboard got removed from the App Store, and I only use Yale, not jyutping

Trad/Simp Switch

The toggle for switching tradition/simplified characters are now missing in v1.1.2
