Swarachakra Telugu Keyboard is a logically arranged, touch-screen keyboard designed specifically for typing the Telugu language on Android devices running version 4.0 and above. It features a unique grid layout based on the Dravidian script structure, making it intuitive for both beginners and fluent users.

This keyboard supports easy input of Telugu vowels, consonants, matras, and conjuncts through an innovative chakra system that previews character combinations, reducing typing complexity. It also accommodates difficult conjuncts like క్ష and క్త elegantly. Additionally, users can temporarily switch to QWERTY for English input. Installation is straightforward, integrating seamlessly with Android's language and input settings to become the default Telugu keyboard.
