About ClaviRom
ClaviRom is an adaptation of HeliBoard - a privacy-conscious open-source keyboard, based on AOSP / OpenBoard - to Swiss minority languages
Does not use internet permission, and thus is 100% offline.
New features of ClaviRom:
Spell check and next word proposals for Swiss Romansh languages Puter, Surmiran, Sursilvan, Sutsilvan, Vallader and Rumantsch Grischun
A welcome wizard in Romansh languages to setup the keyboard
Features of HeliBoard:
Add dictionaries for suggestions and spell check
build your own, or get them here , or in the experimental section (quality may vary)
additional dictionaries for emojis or scientific symbols can be used to provide suggestions (similar to "emoji search")
note that for Korean layouts, suggestions only work using this dictionary , the tools in the dictionary repository are not able to create working dictionaries
Customize keyboard themes (style, colors and background image)
can follow the system's day/night setting on Android 10+ (and on some versions of Android 9)
can follow dynamic colors for Android 12+
Customize keyboard layouts (only available when disabling use system languages )
Customize special layouts, like symbols, number, or functional key layout
Multilingual typing
Glide typing ( only with closed source library ☹️)
