## Cantonese Keyboard Description
Jyutping is a Cantonese input method that is intuitive and efficient—making typing fast, accurate, and effortless.
Type Cantonese just as you speak it — naturally and fluently.
Every input reinforces your pronunciation. The more you use Jyutping, the more familiar you become with Cantonese.

Ready to use right out of the box, with virtually no complicated setup.
Open source, ad-free, and fully offline — no privacy concerns.

Based on the Jyutping romanization scheme developed by the Linguistic Society of Hong Kong (LSHK), and compatible with various spelling habits.
You can perform reverse lookup of Jyutping using Mandarin Pinyin, Cangjie, Quick (Sucheng), Stroke input, and character decomposition. Detailed explanations are available within the app.

Keyboard feature highlights:
• Standard Jyutping input, e.g. neihou → 你好
• Abbreviated Jyutping input, e.g. nh / nhou / neih → 你好
• Tone input support for greater accuracy, helping learners master Cantonese tones and pronunciation
• Candidate words display corresponding Jyutping syllables, making typing easier while reinforcing correct pronunciation
• Supports both Traditional and Simplified Chinese characters, with Traditional characters distinguishing between Hong Kong and Taiwan standards
• Reverse lookup via Mandarin Pinyin: prefix with R (e.g. rlin → 林)
• Reverse lookup via Cangjie or Quick (Sucheng): prefix with V (e.g. vdd → 林)
• Reverse lookup via stroke input: prefix with X (e.g. xwsad → 木)
• Reverse lookup via character decomposition: prefix with Q (e.g. qmukmuk → 林)
• Emoji suggestions that match Cantonese expressions, e.g. daai cung (大蟲) suggests the tiger emoji
• A rich vocabulary tailored to Cantonese usage and grammar for smooth, natural typing
• Includes common English vocabulary for seamless bilingual input
• Multiple keyboard layouts available: 26-key QWERTY, 26-key triple-spell, 10-key (T9), 14-key, 18-key, etc.
• Fully supports light and dark modes, with adjustable keyboard height
• Convenient editing tools: copy, cut, paste, and cursor movement
• Optional sound and haptic feedback, with adjustable vibration intensity

The main app provides extensive Cantonese resources for convenient learning and reference:
• Detailed guides for using all Jyutping keyboard functions
• Jyutping scheme tables of initials, finals, and tones
• Common Cantonese phrases and expressions
• Pronunciations of commonly used Cantonese words
• Cantonese pronunciation lookup and dictionary search
• Text-to-Jyutping conversion

## Cantonese Keyboard Reviews in United States

### ***** "九鍵有啲困難噃"
我自己習慣用九鍵單手輸入，而家支持九鍵好開心，但係發現有啲困難，首先無法用r拼音功能打出不會粵拼嘅字，第二，九鍵差唔多無模糊拼音，必須要我打出全啱嘅粵拼才出對應字，仲有y同j喺26鍵可以混用，比如*一*可以係jat，但你輸入yat也ok，但係喺9鍵輸入下yat就搵唔到，聯想功能也係26叻啲，出嚟嘅*出*字唔係coet咩，9鍵打唔出來喂，開發大佬可否等陣優化下咧😄

### ***** "Excellent Cantonese Keyboard"
A very great app for Cantonese learners! Especially the Jyutping hints and the Reverse Lookup. Highly recommended for anyone looking to improve their Cantonese!
-- Captain MAGA, 2024-12-21

### ***** "Deserves 10 stars"
Wow, wow, wow! It’s comprehensive, with very useful tips on certain Cantonese words and phrases. But most important of all is the keyboard of course. Amazing! Finally a Cantonese keyboard that actually works!! I love the dictation mode, it’s super super accurate and for someone who can speak but learning to write Cantonese, it’s unbelievably useful. There are two things on my wish list. 1) Enable Cantonese dictation on iPad 2) Have the option to simplified Cantonese for translating dictation (currently only Hong Kong traditional Cantonese). Other than this, this is awesome!
-- Christopher Yip, 2024-11-30

### ***** "真係好好用嘅粵語學習軟件"
真係好好用嘅粵語學習軟件
-- 南越人, 2023-01-27

### ****- "Absolutely the best Cantonese keyboard ever"
Love how easy it is and can type multiple words at once and preview before selecting and has the tones. Hopefully will become built in iOS so more people can be aware and use it. Should be taught in schools also!
-- positionkiller, 2022-02-18

### ***** "pretty good ! perfect!"
this is exactly what i am looking for, i recommand it to every one 😊
-- NewYorker$loveGod, 2021-03-04

### ***** "頂！好撚正啊！"
幫我糾正咗好多懶音，功能簡潔好用，期待後續 update
-- Nefi Hwang, 2021-03-01

### ***** "Great, but..."
This has been better than other Cantonese keyboards on the App Store! I like how this has simplified and traditional support! 

I do have some suggestions, however: 
- make an option to disable jyutping display under each character for those who want it 
- make the keys a bit smaller to match the default iPhone keyboard
