Lipi is a clean, fast, and completely free Bangla keyboard for Android. Built
for everyday Bangladeshi users — students, writers, professionals, and anyone
who wants to type Bangla without hassle, without ads, and without sending a
single word to the cloud.
✦ Three ways to type
• Avro Phonetic — type Bangla using English letters (the way you already think
in Bangla). "ami" becomes "আমি", "bhalo" becomes "ভালো".
• Probhat (Direct Bangla) — fixed Bangla layout for users who already know
Bangla key positions are the same standard used by OpenBangla and Avro Keyboard.
• English — a clean QWERTY when you need it, with prediction.
✦ Smart suggestions, on your device
A built-in dictionary plus a learning user dictionary that quietly remembers the
words you actually type — so suggestions get sharper the more you use Lipi.
Everything stays on your phone.

audio.

Or clear the whole dictionary in one tap.
✦ Made in Bangladesh
Lipi is built independently by Saifullah Ahad in Dhaka, Bangladesh, as part of a
free app project for Bangla-speaking users worldwide. There is no team behind a
paywall — just one developer who believes good keyboards should not cost money
or your privacy.
