How it works

Write the way you learned to. Indicon does the typing.

  1. 1

    Write on the canvas

    Switch to Indicon with the globe key and write a word with your finger, just like on paper. Every stroke is smooth and responsive.

  2. 2

    Pause for a moment

    When you pause, Indicon recognises your handwriting. Set the pace to Relaxed, Balanced or Fast to match how you write.

  3. 3

    Tap a suggestion

    Pick the right word from the suggestion bar. Indicon inserts it, adds a space, clears the canvas, and you keep writing.

The keyboard

Works in every app you type in.

Messages, mail, notes, social apps — anywhere the iPhone keyboard appears, Indicon is one tap of the globe away.

Natural handwriting canvas

A blank canvas that keeps up with your hand. Choose thin, regular or bold ink in black, blue, white or automatic.

Smart suggestion bar

See the best matches for what you wrote and tap to insert. Make suggestions Standard, Large or Extra Large for easier reading.

Switch languages in a tap

Add the languages you write in, reorder them, and flip between scripts right from the keyboard.

Smart typing helpers

Automatic spaces between words, smart punctuation, auto-clearing canvas and gentle haptic feedback — each one yours to switch off.

Undo any stroke

Made a slip? Undo the last stroke and fix just that part of the letter, without starting the word again.

Built-in emoji picker

Browse emoji by category without leaving Indicon. Your recently used ones are always at the front.

Notes

Your writing, saved here.

The Indicon app is also a space to practise the scripts you love. Keep typed text, your original handwriting, or both in a note.

  • Recognised on your device. Download your language once and handwriting in notes is recognised offline.
  • Ink and text, side by side. Insert the recognised text, then flip back to view the original handwriting any time.
  • Search everything. Find notes by title, typed text or recognised handwriting.
  • Share in a tap. Send a note's text to any app, or clear the ink and undo it if you change your mind.

Languages

16 Indian languages. One keyboard.

The whole app is available in every one of these languages too — not just the keyboard.

Chakma and Manipuri (Meitei Mayek) are available for writing practice in the app today; keyboard recognition is coming later.

Make it yours

Your keyboard. Your icon. Your privacy.

Tune Indicon to your hand, put your script on the Home Screen, and keep what you type to yourself.

Feels like your pen.

Writing pace — how long Indicon waits after you pause.

Your script on your Home Screen.

Pick an app icon in the language you love.

Your text stays yours.

  • Only handwriting is sent. The keyboard recognises your pen strokes online — never the text in the app you’re typing in.
  • Notes stay on your iPhone. Handwriting in Notes is recognised on-device, even offline.
  • No account. Nothing to sign up for. Just open and write.

Founder's note

“We believe great software comes from caring about the details.”

We’re a small team building tools to help people write in their own language. Indicon is free to use, and built with care for everyone who writes in their own language.
