Keyboard dedicated for Indian users
Google Indic Keyboard is a utility tool developed by Google, a company that pioneers in providing Internet-related services and products. This particular keyboard application is specifically dedicated to people who reside in the Indian subcontinent. It enables these users to type messages, update on social networks, or compose emails in their native language or dialects. It supports keyboards for various Indian dialects such as Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, to mention a few.
This lightweight keyboard application is available to download for free from the Google Play Store. Although, once you have it installed, the process of enabling it will vary depending on the device that you are using. For the newer version starting from Android 5.x and later, you will need to go to your 'Current Keyboard' tab under the Language & Input and Keyboard & Input method sections in your settings. Afterward, choose 'Keyboards' and tick the 'Google Indic Keyboard' box. Go back to the 'Current Keyboard' section to select the 'English & Indic Languages (Google Indic Keyboard)' option. For lower versions starting from Android 4.x and below, you will have to check the 'Google Indic Keyboard' option under the same setting sections mentioned. After that, you will have to click the 'Default' selection and choose 'Google Indic Keyboard' again in the 'Choose input method' dialog.
This keyboard app offers four different modes of input. The Transliteration mode enables you to receive output in your first language by spelling out the pronunciation using English letters. Native keyboard and Handwriting mode, on the other hand, allows you to type directly in your origin language and write directly on your screen respectively. Lastly, the Hinglish mode lets you choose 'Hindi' as an input language which will then suggest both English and Hinglish terms on your keyboard.
