This is a iOS keyboard built off of the Tasty Imitation Keyboard. Chert is a fully functional keyboard that can be customized to contain character sets for Alaska Native languages.
This keyboard is currently optimized for iPhone. iPad should work, but it'll look like a giant iPhone keyboard.
- Auto-capitalization, period shortcut, keyboard clicks.
- Dark mode and solid color mode.
- Completely customizable to include only the languages you want.
Chert is on the App Store and can be found here.
- Go to
Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards → Add New Keyboard
on your device and add the third-party keyboard. - Go back to the app. Press the globe icon until you reach the Chert keyboard (it has an arrowhead on top of it).
Huge thanks to Archagon who created the Tasty Imitation Keyboard. This wouldn't be possible without that work.

If you are interested in using Chert to create your own app, especially if it is for a Native language, please don't heistate to reach out. I would love to work with anyone particularly if you're involved in Native language revitalization. You can reach me at chert.developer@gmail.com.
