The Gboard dictionary works today; the app comes later

While the app is being built: text replacement

iOS has this built in. It takes five minutes, needs no third-party app, and for everyday messaging it is enough.

  1. Gboard → Settings → Dictionary → Personal dictionary → pick a language → “+”.
  2. The new letter in “Word”, the two-letter combination in “Shortcut”.
  3. While typing, enter the shortcut and pick the letter from the suggestion strip.

CCÇ

Replacements sync with a Mac over iCloud, so it is easier to enter them once on the computer rather than typing them on the phone.

In Uzbek, oo, gg, ss and cc hardly ever occur inside a word, so false positives are unlikely. If you also write in English, though, the replacement will fire in words like too, see and all — press ⌫ right after it happens and it undoes itself.

The file will be ready shortly

The keyboards ship in the next phase of the project. In the meantime you can convert your text here and copy it.

Installation

  1. Install the app from Google Play.
  2. Open Settings → System → Languages & input → On-screen keyboard.
  3. Enable our keyboard and set it as the default.
  4. Switch with the keyboard icon while typing.

Android shows a warning when you enable it — that is the standard system message for any keyboard. Ours has no network access at all.

Check

Type in the field below — if all four letters appear, you are set.

Quick routes

The fallback that works on any system: copy the letter you need from here. Tap it and it is on your clipboard.

Without installing a keyboard

If you would rather not install anything — convert your text here and copy it. It takes a few seconds and works the same on a phone.
