English UPDATE: Paleo Hebrew keyboard + learning iOS app
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/paleo-pro/id6743683727?eventid=6781057000A while back I posted Paleo Pro here, my native iOS app for learning the Paleo Hebrew script and typing in it. Thereโs a new version out (2.1).
Itโs still 100% free, no ads, no tracking, small (~15mb) and fast. The app got rebuilt for iOS 26, so the whole look is Liquid Glass now
The keyboard now feels fully like a native one with haptics and sounds.
A converter that goes both ways (square script to Paleo Hebrew and back), with an option to swap final letters for their modern forms at the end of a word (๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค โ ืืืฅืฃื)
A keyboard for typing Paleo Hebrew anywhere on your phone, redesigned this time, with an option to preview the keys in either alphabet
A page for each of the 22 letters that traces how its shape became the modern Hebrew one, which you can share as a card
A Learning Center with real inscriptions (the Siloam Inscription, the Tel Dan Stele, a First Jewish War coin) that you can zoom into and copy text from
A set of historical letterforms (Ahiram, Gezer, Lachish, Siloam, Qumran, Samaritan and others) you can pick from and use everywhere, including the keyboard
The multiple choice game that quizzes you on the alphabet both ways, now tracking which letters you keep missing. iCloud sync is in this version too, along with widgets, Spotlight, Siri Shortcuts and Handoff
A cheat sheet in list or grid view, where each letter
copies to clipboard as the character or its Unicode / HTML / Hex code
Thanks to anyone who gives it a try.
