No japanese input cover kit?

[illeatmyhat]

The lack of a japanese input keyboard is disappointing.
They have a number of features besides a different printed key layout.
For one, the ability to press a dedicated button to change input modes (e.g. from hiragana to katakana to alphabetical) is pretty great.

Yep, Japanese is one that requires additional tooling, so we don’t have it ready yet. It is on the roadmap though. Additional languages will come later.

Does this mean that the input cover from an English keyboard cannot be used with a Japanese keyboard? Just curious.

Japanese input cover kit is now in the final stages of review; suggest reviewing and providing feedback sooner than later:

Request: Review of Korean, Belgian, Japanese, and Latin American keyboards

Our recent request for review of Italian, Spanish, and Chinese keyboards was really useful and we made a fix to our Spanish keyboard. We’re going to repeat this now for another batch of keyboards: Korean [image] Belgian [image] Japanese [image] Latin American [image]

@noa_shiruba You can use a physical English keyboard to type Japanese, you just won’t have keys with dedicated labels for things like hankaku, henkan, or kana toggle. You should be able to change hotkeys as you’d like though for these from defaults like Alt+Shift to whatever.
