An Android keyboard that turns Latin-letter typing into Amharic Fidel, with Ethiopic numerals and offline suggestions.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-16 issue.

For: Amharic writers using Android phones
Worth noticing: The site says suggestions learn words used on the phone while remaining offline; AI edits require sign-in.

Field notes

The site pairs the Android keyboard with browser-based resources, including a copyable Fidel alphabet chart and a Ge’ez number converter. It describes several input modes: Latin-letter transliteration, direct Amharic layout, swipe typing, and English QWERTY. Its privacy explanation distinguishes ordinary typing, which it says stays on-device, from AI edits, which send text when requested.
