Store listing

Full description
OmuType is an Android keyboard for Hong Kong that mixes Cantonese and English: speak or type both in one sentence without switching keyboards. Cantonese voice typing (speech to text), Quick, Cangjie, Jyutping, Stroke and handwriting, all in Hong Kong Traditional Chinese. CANTONESE + ENGLISH, SPOKEN Hold the mic, speak, let go. "我 send 咗個 Figma link 畀你,你 check 下先" comes out exactly like that: English stays English, Cantonese stays Cantonese, never Mandarin written forms or Simplified. Then OmuType hears the sentence again and swaps only the misheard words in place. One tap undoes it. CANTONESE + ENGLISH, TYPED • English candidates sit in the same row as Quick, Cangjie and Jyutping: type nei for 你, type send for send, no 中/英 switch • Write on the keys: draw a Chinese character right on the letter keys. Tap for English letters, write for Chinese, mix them freely • Auto spaces between Chinese and English, and English autocorrect (mucgbitter → much better) ✦ A SECOND READ BY AI Tap ✦ and AI reads your message the way the recipient will: 倉蠅同速成 becomes 倉頡同速成; names and punctuation are tidied. WhatsApp keeps your shorthand, email gets tidied. Your tone and words stay. SAID IT WRONG? SAY THE FIX Say "not Mandy, Wendy" (唔係 Mandy,係 Wendy) and only that word changes. Or say "shorter" (短啲), "in English" (用英文), "more polite" (客氣啲) or "send it" (send 出去, asks first). One tap undoes any change. QUICK, CANGJIE, JYUTPING, STROKE AND HANDWRITING • Quick (速成) types whole phrases: ofvdrf gives 你好嗎. Pick the "跟 Windows" order and 竹戈 7 = 我, just like on a PC • Cangjie (倉頡): every 3rd- and 5th-generation code works, radicals shown on the keys • Two at once: Quick + Cangjie, or Cangjie + Jyutping • Lazy Jyutping (粵拼): no tones needed, tinlau gives 填漏 • Stroke (筆劃): five stroke keys • Handwriting (手寫): write in two boxes in turn, no stopping to pick; recognised on your phone • Next-word suggestions that know Hong Kong words: 綜援, 港鐵, 唔該 • Hong Kong Traditional, never Simplified, in Hong Kong glyphs: 裏, 着, 為 GESTURES • Swipe left to delete word by word; nothing goes until you let go, and a swipe right brings it back • Or choose swipe typing: glide over the letters to type English words KEYWORDS: THE MORE YOU ADD, THE BETTER IT HEARS Add the names and brands you say, and voice matches them by sound: 卡神 comes out as Kason. Add a word from any app's text menu, or paste a list from ChatGPT or Gemini. ALSO • Clipboard: paste what you copied in one tap; pin up to 50 clips, kept only on your phone • Emoji page with recents and search, plus suggestions for the sentence you're writing that learn your habit • Adjustable height, a number row, and side margins for thick phone cases • Foldables and tablets: split, floating or full-width keyboard • Light and dark mode; full- or half-width punctuation PRIVACY • Typing is processed on your phone, works offline and is never sent anywhere • Only voice, ✦ and emoji suggestions send the recording or nearby text to speech and AI providers; our servers keep no recordings or content • Passwords, usernames, numbers, phone numbers and incognito: no mic, no AI, nothing leaves your phone • Names, emails and banking apps: voice works, AI stays off • No account, no ads, no tracking • Delete your data any time at omutype.co/en/delete-data Android warns that any third-party keyboard may collect what you type. Our privacy policy, item by item: https://omutype.co/en/privacy PRICING Typing and handwriting are free with no limits. Voice includes 10 free minutes per phone per week, reset every Monday, then 1 minute every hour after that. ✦ is free 50 times a week. To remove the limits, subscribe to OmuType VIP in the app's settings (fair use: 3 hours of voice a week), billed by Google Play, cancel any time. GET STARTED Open OmuType, follow the three setup steps, then hold the mic in any app and speak. Requires Android 10 or later. For ages 18 and over. By Alano Tech Pte. Ltd., makers of Omucloud. https://omutype.co
