hello to the whole team Your application is very good But I am facing problem in Hindi typing Hindi language should be improved And in my phone again and again K is turned off in accessibility settings Now I have to turn it on again and again

Nowhere near worth the price. It barely works; you may have just got done with a 200 word text that you'll try to send but end up finding out that it didn’t pick up anything that you wrote. That is the most infuriating thing about this app. That along with the fact that it has a ridiculous learning curve with no built-in tutorial is madness. It also doesn’t work in brousers, so that is not worth 10 bucks either
