Guileless Bopomofo Keyboard
* Re-added the single-character filter in the User Phrase Manager, so the list only shows phrases you intentionally created.
* Hid the app header in landscape to give settings more vertical room.
* Fixed the bottom navigation bar in dark theme: the selected icon and its backdrop now look right.
* Fixed the backup / restore / reset buttons so their labels stay readable in dark theme.
Thanks for using Guileless Bopomofo!
I have implemented most features of libchewing (https://chewing.im/), to provide you a choice of Bopomofo software keyboard (aka input method editor).
* Unlike other similar products, though I don't have fuzzy, error-tolerance design, I do still have ability to predict possible phrases by context, and I do remember phrases from your typing history automatically.
* Besides the most common "DaChen", I also provide you "Hsu", "E-Ten 26 keys", and "DaChen CP26" Bopomofo keyboard layouts.
* I also support physical keyboard input with the same layout options, so you can use a consistent Bopomofo experience across virtual and hardware keyboards.
