Japanese for Smart Keyboard

Absolutely needs katakana input (A KA SHI etc), and small kana input (xa xtsu xyo etc). Frustrating to use without it.

Must be the best keyboard out there. But please fix: 1. When a word is changed to hiragana/kanji from romaji input, then is backspaced, it somehow DELETES a character in the previous part of text! PLEASE do something about this, it is VERY annoying. 2. Consecutive words to be converted to kanji at once etc, e.g.あおいとり to 青い鳥 3. Option to hide "。" key, enter button is so small for me. Thank you! Love the concept of customisable long-press, dictionary and gestures though, good job!

Smart Keyboard Pro is great.... except their Japanese keyboard. The predict feature is not very good (not sure it works at all) and there is no way to directly input katakana (maybe no way at all). The inability to enter katakana directly makes it impossible to use at all, given when katakana is used. I'm giving it 1 stars because it does work well as far as hiragana is concerned but as far as I've been able to use it, it only works for 1st grade/beginner Japanese student.... other then that, it's not usable.
