Traditional T9

About this app

TT9 is a 12-key T9 keyboard for devices with a hardware numpad. It supports predictive text typing in 40+ languages, configurable hotkeys, text editing with undo/redo, and an on-screen keypad that can turn your smartphone into a Nokia from the 2000s. And, best of all, it doesn't spy on you!

This is a modernized version of the Traditional T9 Keypad IME by Lee Massi (Clam-), with many new features and languages.

Supported languages: Arabic, Bulgarian, Catalan, Simplified Chinese (Pinyin), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Farsi, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Gujarati (phonetic), Hebrew, Hindi (phonetic), Hinglish, Hungarian, Indonesian, Irish, Italian, Japanese (Romaji), Kiswahili, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (European and Brazilian), Romanian, Russian, Serbian (Cyrillic) Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Moroccan Tamazight (Latin and Tifinagh), Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese, Yiddish.

Philosophy:
- No ads, no premium or paid features. It's all free.
- No spying, no tracking, no telemetry or reports. No nothing!
- No unnecessary bells or whistles. It only does its job, typing.
- The Full version operates entirely offline with no Internet permission. The Lite version connects only when downloading dictionaries from GitHub and when the voice input is active.
- Open-source, so you can verify all the above yourself.
- Created with help from the entire community.
- Things it will (probably) never have: QWERTY layout, swipe-typing, GIFs and stickers, backgrounds or other customizations. "It can be any color you like, as long as it is black."
- Not intended as a clone of Sony Ericsson, Nokia C2, Samsung, Touchpal, etc. It is understandable to miss your favorite old phone or keyboard app, but TT9 has its own unique design, inspired by the Nokia 3310 and 6303i. While it captures the feel of the classics, it offers its own experience and won’t replicate any device exactly.

Thank you for understanding, and enjoy TT9!

Ratings and reviews

this is good the one thing that's not good is the location of the mic it should be listed on the top it would definitely be easier to reach and almost everyone uses the mic! you also have to press and hold it and it doesn't last that long you can let go after it says speak but if you pause for a Split Second it stops working and you have to hit it again

Great app. Easy to swap between languages. I only wish you could slot in your own selection of emojis to pick from, but it has a nice selection. Edit: My bad, I guess I should have read the manual 😅 Certainly no complaints on my behalf anymore

There is missing function for automatic upper case letter after period and space during texting. Also this function should be implemented after starting writing in new line, so after pressing Enter. In general it is working well on Qin F21 Pro And star sign is imposible to insert. hi, thank you. anyway, automathc capitalization does not working in slovenian language.

What’s new
