Traditional T9

Traditional T9 is a Nokia-style 12-key T9 keyboard that brings back the classic predictive text input experience. It works on touchscreens, hardware keypads, and TV remote controls, and does not spy on your data. With support for over 40 languages, Traditional T9 provides a privacy-focused typing alternative that stays offline and ad-free.

Supported Languages and Customization

Traditional T9 includes predictive text for Arabic, Bulgarian, Catalan, Simplified Chinese (Pinyin), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Farsi, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Gujarati (phonetic), Hebrew, Hindi (phonetic), Hinglish, Hungarian, Indonesian, Irish, Italian, Japanese (Romaji), Kiswahili, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (European and Brazilian), Romanian, Russian, Serbian (Cyrillic), Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Moroccan Tamazight (Latin and Tifinagh), Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese, and Yiddish. It also offers configurable hotkeys, clipboard history, undo and redo, and extensive visual customization options to match your preferences.

Privacy-First Philosophy

Traditional T9 does not collect any usage data, telemetry, or reports. The full version operates entirely offline, and the Lite version only connects to GitHub for downloading dictionaries. Voice input may require internet depending on the service used. The app is open-source, allowing anyone to verify these claims. It intentionally avoids ads, unnecessary network connections, and features like QWERTY layout, swipe-typing, GIFs, or stickers. While Traditional T9 captures the feel of classic Nokia keyboards, it is not a clone of any specific device or app—it offers its own streamlined typing experience.

Community and Support

Traditional T9 was created with contributions from the community. Bug reports and feature discussions are managed on GitHub at https://github.com/sspanak/tt9/issues. The app is designed for users who value simplicity, accuracy, and privacy in mobile text input. Enjoy Traditional T9 as a lightweight, predictable keyboard that never tracks your typing habits.
