## Description

Khmer Smart Keyboard is a user-friendly keyboard app with over 1 million downloads and recognition for its usability. After a temporary offline period, AlienDev brought the app back in 2017, reintroducing it to users.

Key features include fast typing with flick gestures, word prediction, delete by swiping left, mode switching by swiping right, Khmer/English switching via the spacebar, easy switching between 4- and 5-row layouts with a two-finger swipe, and built-in themes and emoji.

## Review summary

Users generally praise Khmer Smart Keyboard for its easy-to-use design, strong predictive text, and features like swipe input and color options. Many have used it for years and consider it the best Khmer keyboard, expressing appreciation for its Khmer language support. However, repeated issues after updates undermine that praise: the keyboard frequently switches to English or other keyboards, freezes or crashes, and fonts/diacritics can disappear or fail to render. Compatibility problems with newer iOS versions and slow support responses are common complaints.

### Pros

- Very easy to use with intuitive input, including swipe gestures and color options.
- Long-term user loyalty and high overall satisfaction; many users consider it the best Khmer keyboard.

### Cons

- Keyboard frequently switches back to English or other keyboards after use or on update.
- App crashes or freezes after updates, disrupting typing and requiring reinstall.
- Compatibility problems with newer iOS versions and some older devices (e.g., iPhone 6/6s).
- Fonts or Khmer diacritics disappearing or failing to render after upgrades.
