Description

Keyboard and transcription tool for converting text to Shavian (Shaw alphabet) & Quikscript

The Shavian alphabet (or Shaw alphabet) was posthumously created as an alphabet for the English language, intended to replace Latin. Each character in the Shavian Alphabet requires only a single stroke to be written on paper. The Shaw alphabet was later evolved by its designer Kingsley Read into Quickscript (also known as the Read alphabet and Second Shaw).

The only one

This is the only app I could find for Shavian, fortunately it works really well. I have had no problems or complaints. I’ve been using it to help me learn the script but for that purpose a website would work much better. Having the Shavian and keyboard on my phone was certainly worth the eight dollars I paid for.

Superb app!

Such a great app. It works off-line and is a fantastic tool for both typing and learning the Shavian alphabet. It does have an "accent" however in that it doesn't always match the sounds I would choose for certain words. But otherwise it's great!

There is one issue/bug. When translating is switches the F and V sounds. "Focus" becomes ≪ 𐑝𐑭𐑒𐑳𐑕≫ instead of ≪𐑓𐑴𐑒𐑳𐑕≫.

Good app but could fit all the letters on one page of the keyboard

I think it’s great but too high of a price and they could put all the keys on one page but they don’t
