Best app for an authentic hieroglyph keyboard!

It was super easy to install and use right away! Select from basic alphabet 𓃀𓂋𓇋𓃭𓇋𓄿𓈖𓏏 or the full Gardiner list! 𓄫𓄣𓏇𓇳𓆓𓏏𓎛𓐍𓎛 💖𓏞 Yes, really!!! Translation too! There is more I haven’t even played with yet. Well worth the price, great 𓎿𓎿𓎿𓁨 I have an old iPhone 7.

Great keyboard!

It took me a while to actually understand the instructions, but that’s my fault on my end ^^” Ive been working on a mini side project with appearances of Egyptian gods, and when I was writing some scripts, I was trying to find an efficient keyboard to type out hieroglyphics and Coptic, and this is the best one so far!

The best

Best hieroglyph keyboard I’ve tried. It has them well organized with the uniliterals first and the rest by category. It even includes the keys for transliteration, which is very convenient.

Great Keyboard

Thanks for the efforts of producing such a great keyboard. I noticed you have missed the symbol L1. It would be great if you add romanization to help find the symbol easily, similar to Japanese keyboards.

Best Hieroglyph App

If you have a casual interest in hieroglyphs, want to add them to texts or comments, or more scholarly interests, this app allows you to easily access and type. Great work!

Please Update

I am giving this application a 1 star rating due to the keyboards not popping up when I go to set them up. Please correct this issue and I will correct the review.

2 stars because it’s stupid

That’s too far back. An old Latin keyboard would be better

Non-uniliterals can’t be previewed

The uniliteral signs work great (although there’s no way to vertically group the signs). However, the glyphs don’t appear in the Gardiner list as shown in the previews. Every sign appears in the MAN/WOMAN & OCCUPATIONS section but can only be seen as three vertical lines. Tapping any set of lines produces a glyph, and they are clearly in order, but it is not possible to see which glyph it is in advance. Additionally, none of the symbols appear in the other Gardiner groups like MAMMALS, BIRDS & P
