At the beginning of this month, WeChat officially launched an input method - WeChat keyboard.
Unfortunately, the WeChat keyboard is still in internal testing, and there is only an Android beta version.
However, the iOS WeChat keyboard has also been enabled for small-scale internal testing and is expected to be launched soon. Before
, Student Guo shared with you the installation and experience process of WeChat keyboard app. Students who missed it can refer to the article "After waiting for two years, the WeChat function finally comes."
After experiencing it, many users found that the input method and WeChat ecosystem are very well linked.
is your own input method after all, so there is no problem with this.
But after some experience, students Guo also discovered many problems, such as the stubborn problem of Tencent series app - too large space.
WeChat keyboard just debuted and its size reached 155MB.
This is 5 times larger than other mainstream input methods. After installation, it occupies 524MB of storage space.
Some netizens even revealed that after using the WeChat keyboard for a period of time, the cached data directly reached an astonishing 32.9GB.
However, this netizen's data is really a bit outrageous, and most people basically have 500MB+.
Fortunately, after about 10 days, WeChat has released a new beta version, namely WeChat keyboard version 0.9.1. In the new version of
, the installation package volume has been reduced from the original 155.5MB to 118.7MB, a decrease of nearly 37MB. After installing
, the storage space occupied by the App has also decreased from the original 500MB+ to 200MB+, which is more than half of the weight.
In the past two days, the WeChat keyboard version 0.9.2 is here again.
The new 0.9.2 internal beta version, the installation package volume and memory usage are similar to the previous version, and many new functions have been launched.
Everyone can get the WeChat keyboard download link in the background of Qiguojiang official account.
After installation, open the "Settings" of the WeChat keyboard. In the "About" option, you can update to version 0.9.2.
Also, just like last time, open WeChat Reading , and you can also directly download version 0.9.2 through push.
Let’s talk about what has been updated in the latest internal beta version.
Basic number calculation
In the new version, the WeChat keyboard has built-in simple calculator functions.
When the user enters the numerical formula he wants to calculate in the digital interface, the calculation result will automatically appear below.
Of course, this function is only applicable to some simple formulas at present.
supports adjusting the size of candidate words
Enter "Settings" - "Show Settings". You can see that the new version has added the function of adjusting the "Cannotate Word Size".
Slide the horizontal bar below to set it.
In this way, users can customize the keyboard layout.
Slide up to enter numbers or symbols
Enter "Settings" - "Slide up to enter numbers symbols", and you can enable the two functions of "Slide up to enter numbers" and "Slide up to enter symbols".
Previously, the WeChat keyboard page only displayed letters. After
is turned on, in addition to letters, numbers and symbols will be displayed on the keyboard, which is similar to the computer keyboard.
briefly drag the corresponding key upward, and after letting go, the number or symbol corresponding to the key will be entered.
This way, it will be much more convenient when entering numbers and symbols, so you no longer need to switch numbers and symbols to the keyboard.
or above are three new changes in the internal beta version of WeChat keyboard 0.9.2.
At the end of the day, some students may be puzzled by one question, that is, why is it called WeChat keyboard instead of directly calling WeChat input method?
From the perspective of this app's positioning, it is more appropriate to call the WeChat input method.
is actually not something that WeChat doesn’t want, but it cannot be used for the time being.
Because Tencent has not yet been able to obtain the trademark of WeChat input method, it is still applying for review status.
Perhaps after taking the trademark and launching the official version, the WeChat keyboard will be transformed and may be renamed "WeChat Input Method".
or above is all about today.
Interested students, hurry up and try the latest version of WeChat keyboard.
