Kept crashing but I remember it was like an older version of Unicode Pad PRO, I like it

:)

Keyboard usable in other apps?

I understand that for keyboards usable in other apps, there is Unicode Pro (which I’ve been using for a long time already). However, it only gives access to five additional keyboards, which are all in use already. So if Unicode Pad gave access to usable keyboards, you could have ten in total. An even better solution would obviously be to have infinite keyboards or at least a lot more in Unicode Pro, but if we simply had usable ones with this app, it would be a good start. Otherwise the keyboards are rather pointless.
Thank you for considering.

A Rarely Used Delight

Unicode Pad is the kinda app that you don’t need very often but is invaluable when you do. Moreover, every time I run it I’m delighted at what a pleasant experience it is. Highly recommended.
