About this app

---------------------------
Version 4.8 and 4.9 update problem:
On some phones the update process of Ghanakey doesn't go to the phone's settings to enable Ghanakey. To overcome this you should go to the phone's settings and find the keyboards' list (on a Samsung phone it's at Settings/General management/Keyboard list and default).
Here enable Ghanakey and this will make it appear as selectable on the keyboards' list. Then you can continue with Ganakey 4.8 setup and set Ghanakey as default.
---------------------------

This is a keyboard for the written languages in Ghana. There are 11 government assisted languages in Ghana.

Features:

This app was terrific until they updated it with a tiny space bar making it difficult for those of us with big thumb. I'll be back to give a 5 star if that's fixed I'm back again after 2 years! The app has a very annoying and destructive red button after the recent update. I clicked on it and a covid website was opened up. Please check that

In "settings/UI(palette icon)/tweaks and more/common bottom generic row" select Simple or Alternate (no mic) and you'll get a longer space key or you could try typing in landscape mode. The red button appears only once then it's not shown anymore.
