About Swarachakra Marathi Keyboard

"स्वराज्य हा माझा जन्मसिद्ध हक्क आहे, आणि तो मी मिळवणारच" - बाळ गंगाधर टिळक. If your device can display this sentence in Marathi perfectly, then your device supports Marathi and Swarachakra should also work well. If you do not see any text, or if some of the words are incorrect, Swarachakra may not work well.

Swarachakra Marathi (स्वरचक्र मराठी) is a touch-screen keyboard for inputting text in Marathi. (For Hindi please use Swarachakra Hindi and for Konkani please use Swarachakra Konkani. Swarachakra is also available in Gujarati, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Odia, Punjabi, Bengali and Tamil). Swarachakra uses a logically ordered design based on the structure of Devanagari. Swarachakra displays the consonants sequenced according to the logical structure of Devanagari, phonetically grouped and arranged in a grid similar to those found in most school textbooks.

Typing with Swarachakra
In Devanagari, we frequently need to type a combination of a consonant (ध) and a matra (ो) like ध + ो = धो. When you touch a consonant, a chakra with combination of consonants and 10 frequent matras pops up (धा, धि, धी, धु, धू, धे, धै, धो...). The chakra gives a preview of the possible character combinations. To select a combination, you slide the stylus or finger towards it.
Typing conjuncts like क्रि, स्थ, च्य is particularly hard for most people. Swarachakra makes it easy. First tap on the first part of the combination and select the halant from the chakra (स + ्). Swarachakra then shows a preview of all possible conjuncts that begin with that consonant (स + ् + त = स्त; स + ् + थ = स्थ etc.). If you need to add a matra, select it from the new chakra like earlier (स्था, स्थि, स्थी, स्थु, स्थू...).
To type a rafar (र्थ), a rashtrachinha (ट्र) or the eyelash ra (-य, -ह), first select the corresponding key from the right-most bottom keys, and then type as usual.
Complete vowels (अ, आ, इ, ई, उ, ऊ, ए, ऐ, ओ, औ) appear in a separate chakra on the bottom right. The less used vowels and matras are next to it (ऽ, ऑ, ृ, ऋ, ॄ, ॠ, ॆ, ॊ, ॅ, ॉ,). Numerals, symbols and rarely used characters appear on a shift. You could also switch to the QWERTY keypad temporarily to input English characters.

Installing Swarachakra
First, install Swarachakra Marathi by clicking the “Install” button above.
Next, you need to “enable” the keyboard. To enable, open “Settings”, select “Language and Input” and check the box in front of स्वरचक्र मराठी (Swarachakra Marathi) in the “Keyboard and input methods” section.
Finally, click on the “Default” option in the “Keyboard and input methods” section, and select स्वरचक्र मराठी (Swarachakra Marathi) as the default keyboard. (Sorry, but that’s how Android works)
NOTE: Swarachakra is designed for Android 4.0 (ICS) onwards. It does not work right now on older versions because they do not have Unicode support.

Hi. I am facing issue while typing on my Moto g5 plus phone as this has the soft buttons that can be disabled and hence the keyboard is not appearing properly. The bottom portion of the keyboard is getting overshadowed by the soft buttons

While typing 'rya' or 'hra' available option are wrong. Also if I want to type 'आॅ' then many time a space is added between the alphabet and 'ॅ'. Need to correct these small mistakes. Seconly, in'Tapatap' game for first level submit is not availabe after typing word 'क्रमश:'. Pl. correct these 2 problems.

I really love the app but...its inconvenient if I dont know spelling of either a मराठी or an Eng word. It needs dictionaries & spelling suggestions for both मराठी & Eng (but not US Eng). In ENG every new sentence should automatically start with a Capital Letter. मराठीतला 'ल' जर 'ऌ' सारखा दिसला & 'श'च्या जोडाक्षरातला अर्धा 'श म्हणजेच श्' जर 'श्व' मधल्या 'श्' ऐवजी 'श्ब' मधल्या "श्' सारखा दिसलातर फार बर होइल. 'आ' 1 character आहे पण 'का' (क+ा) 2 characters आहेत (कारण 'आ' साठी 'अ+ा' बरोबर फक्त 'आ' सुद्धा available आहे), त्यान twitter सारख्या limited charactersच्या platformsवर बरीच अडचण होते. त्यामुळ 'क्, का, कि, ..., दृ, ..., क्ष, क्षा, ..., ज्ञ, ज्ञा, ..., श्रं, श्रः, ..., त्रं, त्रः, etc.' असे सर्व बाराखडीतले अक्षरे 2 ऐवजी फक्त 1च character झाले तर फार बर होईल. I hope you'll sincerely try to help me with these issues regarding मराठी typing on the app. Also, if possible apps for Foreign Scripts like Korean (한글: हान् गळ्) would be great coz it's system of attaching 'vowel symbols' to 'consonants' isn't too different from Brahmi based Scripts. Even better if only 'One' app could have option for selecting Multiple Scripts (Indian & Foreign) making installing multiple apps unnecessary which can be more helpful & convenient.
