Rime Chinese keyboard, local correction and multilingual input
NanoMouse combines Rime Pinyin and Double Pinyin, Chinese 26-key and 9-key layouts, Chinese/Japanese/English input, local correction and customizable keyboard appearance on iPhone and iPad.
NanoMouse supports Rime Ice Pinyin, Double Pinyin, Japanese romaji and stroke-based schemes. Chinese input includes 26-key and 9-key layouts, Simplified/Traditional conversion and one-handed layouts. An optional split keyboard is available on iPad. Available schemes depend on the installed version and configuration.
Local correction improves the typing workflow without a NanoMouse cloud membership or cloud AI usage charge. Optional models require downloading, and device resources affect the experience. Local correction is separate from online rewriting and translation.
Long-press characters, a number pad, symbols, Emoji, appearance controls and optional dynamic effects help adapt the keyboard to different workflows.
How to use it
- Install the app and add NanoMouse in iOS keyboard settings.
- Choose an input scheme and layout in the main app.
- Switch with the globe key in an app that allows third-party keyboards.
Frequently asked questions
Does typing require a subscription?
Basic local typing and local correction do not require a NanoMouse cloud subscription. Online AI features have separate account and usage rules.
Does it work in every text field?
It works where third-party keyboards are allowed. Secure fields and apps that block third-party keyboards may use the system keyboard.
