Armenian for iPhone

New Armenian keyboard and SMS app "Babylon TXT" seems to be the first with real Armenian keyboard for iPhones... Not "qwert".... Works well... Just had chat with a new user in France today... The best part, all the texting is free worldwide 🙂 .

It has also Georgian and Russian keyboards. I bet both Armenians and Georgians with iPhones can finally type in their own languages, instead of using Latin and Cyrillic letters...

The app has everything that iPhone's Text messaging is offering.

iPhone 4, iOS 4.3.2, Armenian keyboard, Armenian SMS

There are actually a number of languages with a large number of speakers for which iOS 5 lacks a keyboard even though the fonts are present: Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Tamil, Telugu, Sinhala, Oriya, Malayalam, Kannada, Bengali, Armenian, Georgian, Lao, and Yi. I think all of these except the last two do have keyboards in OS X, so hopefully Apple can bring the two OS's into sync in this area without a lot of delay. In any case, the best place to ask them to do that is

I wrote them several times but they never respond. I just need to know - should I wait for Armenian keyboard in iOS 6, or if no hope - move to Android.

Apple never provides the kind of info you want. You will just have to make your decision without it.
