Complete IPA Keyboard

The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is a power tool for transcribing the wide range sounds spoken by human beings. The Complete IPA Keyboard includes all the IPA symbols as published by the International Phonetic Association, as well as many other commonly used phonetic symbols. A great tool for linguists, speech pathologist, foreign language teachers & learners, accent coaches, and anyone else who regularly uses the IPA.

Any combination of phonetics symbols is possible using the Complete IPA Keyboard. However, language specific keyboards have been created which include commonly occurring symbol combinations. For example, the German Phonetic Keyboard includes long vowels, such as /ɑː/, /eː/, /iː/. The Russian Phonetic Keyboard (Cyrillic) includes palatalized consonants, such as /bʲ/, /dʲ/,/fʲ/, etc.

Phonetic Keyboards is a vital tool for language learners, teachers, linguists, speech pathologists, actors, & singers. Practical and intuitive, the app features IPA and 8 language keyboard layouts to allow phonetic transcription in any iPhone or iPad app.

Designed by Daniel Sommer, a pronunciation coach, classical musician, and teacher, Phonetic Keyboards allows for easy orthographic and phonetic input on iOS devices. The full suite of characters includes IPA symbols as published by the International Phonetic Association as well as phonetic symbols found in popular dictionaries and language learning materials – even retired IPA symbols.

In addition, the French, German, Italian, Russian (Cyrillic), and Spanish keyboards are laid out with attention given to the relationships between orthography (spelling) and sound. The Russian Phonetic Keyboard (Cyrillic) includes characters for scholarly and modern transliteration in addition to phonetic symbols.
