Stroke Input Method (筆畫輸入法)
* Implemented keyboard edge-to-edge padding (bottom spacer)
* Opted out of Main Activity edge-to-edge (screw you Google)
* Fixed buggy key preview initialisation in landscape mode
* Changed Help/About link colour to blue
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.
