IPAChartBoard is a system keyboard, so you can use it with any iOS app! IPAChartBoard puts the seven official IPA charts at your fingertips. Phonetic detail was never so easy!

Like other iOS third-party keyboards, IPAChartBoard comes to your device in a carrying app, in this case IPAChartApp. Once you've installed IPAChartApp on your device, you install the keyboard through System Settings. (The app will remind you how to do this.) Then IPAChartBoard keyboard is available for use with any app on your device. From your default system keyboard, you switch to the IPAChartBoard by tapping the 
key, as you would to use any other system keyboard.
Tap the thumbnails. The charts scroll!
