Stroke Input Method (筆畫輸入法) Emojis and Keyboards app for Android description
This keyboard app lets you input Chinese characters by typing stroke sequences (e.g. 天 is ㇐㇐㇒㇔).
It is a minimalist implementation with the following features:
- Good character support (over 28k characters) including vernacular Cantonese
- User preference for traditional or simplified characters
- No ads
- No permissions
- No tracking or telemetry
- Deterministic candidate generation which doesn't learn user input
After installing the app, launch and follow the prompts to enable Stroke Input Method in your system settings. There will be a default warning shown — this is normal.
This app is free and open-source software, licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 (GPL-3.0-only).
