[ OVERVIEW ]
Lekhi is a native iOS keyboard for typing Bangla with Avro Phonetic transliteration: type "ami" and get আমি. It pairs a tactile, 3D mechanical-keycap design with switch sound profiles and haptic feedback, and ships a built-in 150,000+ word dictionary with a three-card suggestion bar and autocorrect. Lekhi works fully offline, collects no data, and does not need "Allow Full Access". It includes Avro Phonetic, Probhat, and English layouts, optional Bengali numerals, a searchable Avro cheat sheet, and a Bangla typing speed test. The app is open source under the MIT License and uses the OpenBangla riti engine for transliteration.
