Kouri-Vini

Type in Kouri-Vini! This iOS keyboard is specifically designed and tested for the Kouri-Vini community.

This app was and will continue to be built on community feedback. If you are a Kouri-Vini speaker, please send feedback about how the app has worked for you.

The keyboard is designed to have the accented vowels on their own keyboard page. With the normal iOS keyboard, one has to go from tapping keys to holding down keys for accents... while this method may work when languages use only a few accents, this does not work well for Kouri-Vini and it is not necessarily intuitive. For this keyboard, it should become natural for the user to switch between pages with taps and type without pausing. Additionally, if you hold the "Globe Key" you can change some settings for the app such as "Quick Switch" which will change they keyboard from the second page, back to the first page automatically after an accented letter is selected.

The keyboard also has relatively simple "predictive text bar". Since a Kouri-Vini dictionary for iOS has yet to be included, the predictive text bar keeps track of words you type on your device and as it learns will it will be able to recommend to you words that you have used. This information is saved on your device and never transmitted.
