Many keyboards exist in the Google Play but none to date have used to write letters ɲ ŋ ε and ɔ found in the Bambara language and Soninké particular.
With this keyboard Asawan, it's done. With your smartphone or tablet, you can now use social networking or texting while writing in your language without having to invent codes (gn for ɲ, for ŋ ng ...).
In addition to the letters, there is a small addition of ɩ letters and ʋ for one of my friends.
