Bilingual translation output:
New Translation Output setting: insert the translation on its own, or together with the original text — each line tagged with the matching language flag
Choose between Translation Only, Original + Translation, or Translation + Original. Bilingual modes are part of Babel Fish Pro.
Clearer guidance when "Allow Full Access" is off, so the keyboard can reach the AI.
Stability and error-message improvements.
New: Automatic sentence capitalization
• The keyboard now auto-capitalizes the first letter of a sentence —
the start of the text and the first letter after ". ", "! " or "? ".
This applies both while typing and to AI/translation output.
• The Shift (⇧) key now lights up and shows uppercase letters whenever
the next letter will be auto-capitalized, like the native keyboard.
• New "Auto Capitalization" toggle in the keyboard's Settings
(ON by default). Turn it off to type with no auto-capitalization.
Also fixed
• Selecting an AI model in the keyboard's Settings (AI Model) no longer
crashes/closes the keyboard on Pro accounts.
What to test
1. Open the keyboard, tap Settings, confirm "Auto Capitalization" is ON.
2. Type: hello. how are you? i'm fine! → should render
"Hello. How are you? I'm fine!" and the ⇧ key should light up after
each ". " / "! " / "? ".
3. Select some lowercase text and tap Translate → the inserted result
should be sentence-capitalized.
4. Paste/type a URL or email (e.g. https://example.com/test. hello) in
the translation flow → the link stays intact, only "hello" → "Hello".
5. Turn the toggle OFF → typing and output keep their original casing.
6. Settings → AI Model → scroll and select a model → keyboard stays
open and applies the selection (no crash).
