Provides great balance of features and ease of use. Allows switching between English and 23 Indian languages using an intuitive roman-phonetic keyboard mapping that takes just a day or two to learn. Best of all, the mapping is deterministic and not based on AI guesswork like other phonetic keyboards. So once you get used to the mapping there are no surprises and trial and error needed while typing. I use it for Sanskrit on Windows and Android. Available in browser too. I wish you add ios too.

It is the best phonetic keyboard for Indic scripts, except for Bengali as Ridmik provides a much better experience. But, it turns out to be my saviour of typing Sanskrit. Just one thing, can someone help me with the instructions to open the settings inside the app, couldn’t find it.
