Persian Keyboard lets you type Persian (Farsi) the way you think, even in Latin letters. FINGLISH TO PERSIAN Type salam khoobi and get سلام خوبی, with suggestions as you type. TRANSLATE BOTH WAYS On the Persian keyboard, tap «ترجمه» and get an exact or a casual English version of your message, ready to send. On the English keyboard, tap Translate and get your English message in formal or everyday Persian. GRAMMAR CHECK Tap «گرامر» to fix just the mistakes in a Persian or English message, or get the whole sentence written well. HALF-SPACES FIX THEMSELVES می شود becomes می‌شود and کتاب ها becomes کتاب‌ها by themselves. There is a half-space key too. ARABIC LETTERS FIXED Arabic ي and ك are changed to Persian ی and ک as you type, so search and sorting work. PERSIAN AND WESTERN DIGITS Switch between ۱۲۳ and 123 with one tap. « » ، ؛ ؟ ٪ are right there. AND MORE • Today's date in one tap: Solar Hijri on the Persian keyboard, Gregorian on the English one • Shortcuts: type /adr and get your full address • 12 colour themes, light and dark, in a dark frame with rounded corners • The full Persian keyboard: all 32 letters on the keys • A wide space bar: hold it and slide to move the cursor • Sign in with Apple, Google or your email • Works in every app INVITE FRIENDS Share your code from the app. When a friend who signs up with it subscribes to Premium, you get a month of Premium free (up to 12 months a year). WHAT YOU TYPE STAYS YOURS Finglish, suggestions and corrections all run on your phone. Your keystrokes are never stored or sent to us. The only exception is a message you choose to translate or check: when you tap «ترجمه» or «گرامر», that one message is sent once and is not stored. No ads and no tracking. FREE AND PREMIUM Basic Persian typing is free forever, and you can try Premium free every day: Finglish for 20 words, and with an account, translation and the grammar check 3 times each. Premium (Finglish, Persian to English translation, grammar check, automatic half-space, smart suggestions, Nastaliq cards, all themes and shortcuts) is an auto-renewing subscription, monthly or yearly, with a 3-day free trial for new subscribers.
