v8.0

"Smarter Typing" release

Re-enabled the Add Word functionality, so that custom words can be added to the dictionary and made many improvements to make the Predictive mode much "smarter" and convenient.

What's Changed

• Adding words to the dictionary is possible again (#73)
• Fixed some mistakes in the translations
• Each input mode is in its own class. This will allow adding new features much easier. (#75)
• Fixed mode 123 being incorrectly forced after typing in a numeric field, then going to a text field
• General code cleanup and optimization. Improved error handling here and there.
• Smarter word suggestions in Predictive mode (#76)
• OK button now performs the default action (e.g. submit a message, search, go to a web page, etc...), when the application defines one.
• Brand new graphical emoji
• Updated documentation

v7.0

"Total Engine Refactoring" release

Almost completely rewritten the Languages, the Database and the IME modules. TT9 should be more stable now and it will be much easier to add new languages and features later on.

Disabled Features: In this version adding new words and importing dictionaries from a file are disabled. They will be re-enabled in a future version of TT9.

What's Changed

• Rewritten the Languages, the Database and the IME modules. New and more clear folder/package structure. Also, adding a new language is now much easier.
• Much improved soft key view.
  • It should fit and look good on all screen sizes.
  • Each button has one clearly defined function.
  • The button labels that used to become cluttered sometimes are replaced with icons.
• Redefined "0", "1", "*" and "#" keys to work almost similar to Nokia 3310 (with small exceptions).
• There is no punctuation or emoji full-screen tables, but instead, upon pressing "1", all punctuation or emoticons are displayed in the Suggestions bar, like other words or letters. Emoticons are accessible only in Predictive mode. Check out the user manual for detailed explanation.
• Words and letters from different languages are no longer mixed together. For example, when starting to type something if English, French or German letters (and words) no longer appear as suggestions.
• The current language and text case is preserved when going to another text field, another app or even after restarting the phone.
• Improved the way priority is assigned to frequently used words.
• Disabled adding new words.
• Disabled importing dictionaries from a file.
• Removed some unused icons, translations and other resources for smaller .apk size.
• Updated readme and documentation

v6.0

"Finish the Incomplete" release

Finished several tasks and bugs that were left incomplete for a long time, but deserved to make it in master. Also, started preparing for a complete re-make.

Note 1: This version uses a new set of configuration settings, so old ones will be ignored.
Note 2: The APK is signed using a new key. This means that if you have any of the older TT9 versions, found on Google Play or the other free stores, you will have to uninstall it, before installing this one.

What's Changed

• BACK key can now delete text
• Fixed the UI not appearing when a text field is re-focused
• The soft keys fit properly on the screen
• Added Bulgarian language
• Removed key remapping and some other settings that were not true to the "classic" Nokia experience.
• The settings are now stored in SharedPreferences instead of in SQLite. The old ones are NOT migrated.
• New logo and updated documentation
• New versioning system based on git
• Changed the application ID in compliance with the F-Droid inclusion policy
