The standard Korean keyboard is widely used and convenient, but it has some inconveniences: you must compose vowels, and because Hangul is assembled in the text field, small fonts can make characters hard to check.

Hanglin solves these issues by placing consonants and vowels on separate screens with automatic switching. You can directly select all 19 consonants and 21 vowels without vowel composition. And since you choose from candidates, input is not affected by font size. As a result, Hangul typing on iPhone becomes fast, accurate, and surprisingly simple.

1. 자Updated the consonant and vowel layout to be closer to the standard keyboard, making typing significantly easier.
2. Removed the Hanja mode.
3. Expanded device support up to the iPhone 17 series.

This app sells only on the App Store. The price is 500 yen in Japan. In other countries the price is 2.99$.(2025) You can download this app from the App Store. Once you purchase it, you can download it at any time and you can use it on both iPhone and iPad. 　If there is a version up, this app will be updated automatically, if you choose the “Updates” switch of “iTunes & App Store” ON in the Settings menu on your iPhone.

　Here is how the screens change when entering ‘안’ in ‘안녕하세요’.

1. When you select Hanglin, the start screen appears. The L and R keys are for left-hand and right-hand layouts.
2. For this example, we’ll use the normal screen, so ignore the L and R keys and select Ieung (ㅇ).
3. The vowel selection screen appears immediately.
4. After choosing a vowel, the candidates are displayed.
5. When you select a character from the candidates, it is entered, and the screen returns to the consonant layout.
6. You can then enter 녕 smoothly as well. Accurate Hangul composition is easy, even with small text.

	Start		After chooing a consonant （Select ㅇ）
	Before choosing a vowel		When you select a vowel, the candidates are displayed
	After choosing a character		Enter the next character in the same way

There are Hangul syllables that are not included in the standard precomposed set but are still used in real language. For example, the past tense of the adjective 하얗다 (“to be pure white”) is 하얬다, but the syllable 얬 does not exist in the official precomposed Hangul set (although it is included in the extended set of 47 added syllables).

There are also cases where Hangul pronunciation is written using Hangul itself, and such notation often requires syllables that are not part of the standard precomposed set. Hanglin allows you to input even these rarely used syllables.

Sometimes you may want to enter only consonant letters. Examples include ㅋㅋㅋ (laughing), ㅎㅎㅎ (soft laugh), and even ㅅㄱ (‘good job’/‘thanks for your effort’). In that case, tap the ‘Jamo’ key, and a guide message will appear in the candidate area. Then, simply tap the consonant you want to input, and it will be entered directly.”

There are 11 types of complex final consonants (batchim) that cannot appear as initial consonants in Hangul syllables. To enter these, press the “CBtm” key. On iPhone, this key appears after tapping the “Jamo” key.
