Does what it says on the tin.

The app is simple and the keyboard is effective. I'm glad it works not just within the app, but also on notes BUT NOT on google docs.
Oddly "ĝ,j,ḫ" do not work with vowels, I can't type "ĝu" in cuneiform. It's very frustrating and needs to be fixed! On a minor note I'm not a massive fan of the keyboard's aesthetic; it deserves an update so it can match all the other apple keyboards.

Also, there aren't multiple ways of getting to a cuneiform symbol. I can type "an" and "𒀭" will come up but if I try and type "diĝir" nothing appears.

I like the subscript function it has when transcribing characters; I don't have to type "e2" or "a4". That's a nice touch :)

I’m trying to use this app on my iphone. It types the first letter in cuneiform and the rest in english. Can’t find any instructions anywhere.
