ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Japanese Keyboard 速い holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cat Keyboard has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of Japanese Keyboard 速い's written reviews are positive against 83% of Cat Keyboard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Japanese Keyboard 速い ships an update monthly, Cat Keyboard fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
