Gallifreyan Translator

About this app

This app takes English input and translates it to Circular Gallifreyan. You can then share the converted text with others as well as export it to a generic image file. A great app for all Doctor Who fans.

Circular Gallifreyan contains some letters with lines extending from them. These lines point in random directions which will change every time the letter is redrawn (which includes when you rotate the screen). The lines are supposed to move around. Only the number of lines is important to the translation.

Ratings and reviews

This is lovely! Very fun. It is especially nice after studying how to write on my own... I can see some of the letter combinations that gave me trouble. The feature to click/swipe which changes the layout of the lines is especially helpful in figuring out creative ways to lay out the flourishes.

This is an absolute amazing app, one of the most accurate and easie translater I've seen so far. Although other comments present the fact that the lines are "random" (from the letters G,H,F.. ect, which respectively is the exact same aslong as there on the same character), GUI is simple and clean, the app runs smoothly while taking bearly any storage. The customization is effortless to use. This is overall a great app. Definitely worth downloading and definitely worth recommending

I enjoy doing art of Sherman's Gallifreyan manually sometimes, and I thought I'd check this app out to see how it does. It seems pretty accurate, though it doesn't do punctuation and it seems like if a phrase is too long things can get cut off. Obviously since sizing and spacing and line directions are random, it doesn't have the same artistic sense you would get from art done by an actual person, but I can see this being useful for double-checking my spelling when I'm finished with something!
