Overview
OmuType for Mac · Vibe Typing: no need to remember every Cangjie code. Type whole sentences, Chinese and English mixed.
The first Mac input method that chains Cangjie codes and mixes in English. Keep typing codes one after another and the run reads as words and sentences. Slips, look-alike radicals and missing letters are forgiven: sendlwjrfileohgjhqo gives "send 個 file 俾我".
- No switching between Chinese and English. It reads the first word you type and picks the language; if it guesses wrong, Caps Lock re-reads the same letters in the other language.
- Built for a Mac. Enter puts the word in without sending early in Chrome, WhatsApp, Slack or Lark; terminals and code editors start in English; spreadsheet formulas stay as typed.
- Every Cangjie code works, old and new. Quick (速成) can follow Windows' order. Also Jyutping without tones (HK spellings and lazy sounds), Pinyin in HK Traditional, and Stroke.
- Hong Kong through and through: HK character forms, never Simplified. Schools, places, MTR stations and malls type in full.
- Keywords: type your own names your way; import a phone's Keywords export.
New: the voice edition (語音版)
Speak and send: 87% of sentences need zero edits. Hold 🌐 (or Control) and talk Cantonese, English, or both in one sentence. The words show as you speak, then go in once, checked. With Accessibility on, it spells names and brands the way your screen does. Share your phone's VIP and weekly voice by entering its device code.
Two downloads, side by side on one Mac. The offline edition never goes online, keeps nothing you type and has no analytics. The voice edition goes online for voice only; typing stays on the Mac.
Free: the offline edition is free for good if downloaded before the end of 2026. The voice edition gives 10 free minutes of voice a week.
Requires Apple Silicon (M1 or later) and macOS 15 or later. Made in Hong Kong by Alano Tech.
