This App uses 3 keyboard views to offer Salish characters found in the Spokane dialect. The “QWERTY” keyboard appears as the standard Android keyboard. However, the “SYMBOL” keyboard offers the characters required to type various dialects of Interior Salish, including the vowels (a, e, i, o, u, á, é, í, ó, and ú), the consonants (c, h, k, l, ɫ, λ, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, w, x, and y), the glottal stops (ʔ, ʕ), ◌̣ (which adds a glottal marker above any consonant), the ʷ (which adds the raised w after the previous letter), the ˇ (which adds a wedge to the previous character), and the ˳ (which adds the dot below the x). The x’, ʷ, ˇ, and ˳ keys are used to make the Salish characters. The “ SYMBOL+SHIFT” keyboard offers numbers (0-9) and standard punctuation and commonly used symbols (‘, ?, !, etc.).

Even though the spacing doesn't look correct on your Android device, your text messages, status updates, and posts will appear correctly IF you set your text message input setting to "Automatic”. Currently the Andorid platform does not correctly display the Unicode characters for Indigenous languages, however setting the input to “Automatic” sends the correct unicode character to the recipient.
