Panda Zhuyin — steady Zhuyin (Bopomofo) and Taiwanese typing. Mandarin and Taiwanese are both written in Zhuyin. Panda Zhuyin packs the symbols into a few large keys you won't miss: tap for the center symbol, flick for the ones around it, and every tap or flick gives one definite result. Impossible combinations are grayed out. Two keyboard layouts, switch any time · Rime Bars: flick for initials; rimes sit in three bars, one per cell, following the Bopomofo chart · Flick Keys: every key flicks, like Japanese and Korean 10-key keyboards; tone key upper right, as on Rime Bars · 10-Key (experimental): several symbols per key; just tap, or flick to lock one in Two typing styles, your habit · Continuous: keep typing, tones optional, even initials only; the keyboard works out where each character ends · Auto-Add Medials: find words even when you skip a medial · Tone Ends the Syllable: a character ends when you type its tone; keys that cannot follow turn gray Taiwanese (Taigi) keyboard · Bopomofo Extended with all seven tones, checked tones, and nasal rimes; a Checked-Tone key, and a Transform Key for voiced and nasal variants · Lexicon cross-checked from four public sources, including the Ministry of Education dictionary · Romanization lookup between Bopomofo Extended, Tai-lo, and POJ; key labels can show the romanization as you type Editing and the toolbar · Hold Space and the whole keyboard becomes a trackpad, moving left, right, and between lines · Edit Tools: move the cursor and select one step at a time, then cut, copy, or paste; a Paste button sits on the toolbar · Pull the candidate bar down for more candidates and the toolbar English, numbers, symbols, and emoji · Emoji key: a full panel with categories, Recents, color filters, and skin tones · Selecting a symbol shows its Unicode code point · English: QWERTY on Rime Bars; two letters per key on Flick Keys, or a Japanese-style Phone Keypad · Calculator panel; press = for the result · Full-width symbols with halfwidth too; brackets open and close on one key Help and Setup Assistant · Every feature shown on a real keyboard, plus Find a Symbol, a setup checklist, and quick start; the FAQ and full manual are on the website · Setup Assistant in Settings picks your layout, typing style, and languages from a few questions Make the keyboard yours · Theme editor: colors, corners, borders, and backgrounds (solid, gradient, or photo); basic editing is always free · Text size for keys and candidates is set once in Settings and applies to every theme · Five built-in fonts; glass finish tuned for light and dark Features · Open-source Homa composer that takes the previous word into account · Custom Vocabulary and learning from what you pick; hold a candidate to forget it · Separate learning data for Mandarin and Taiwanese; opt-in iCloud Sync to your own iCloud only · Candidate tabs, emoji suggestions, Chinese numerals and dates, one-handed mode, landscape, and VoiceOver Privacy · The keyboard never connects to the internet; your input and learning data stay on your device · "Allow Full Access" is used for haptics and sounds, the clipboard (paste, cut, copy), and opening the app (an Apple requirement); all of it stays on your device · Anonymous Product Survey: opt-in, off by default, with nothing you type and no identifiers About the subscription (Panda Supporter) Core typing is free forever, with three featured themes.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 長信吉 at none against Panda Zhuyin's 5. Panda Zhuyin's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 8 days). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
