Sumire is a Japanese keyboard (IME) that operates completely offline. You can input Japanese even without an internet connection. All information, including input characters, learning data, and user dictionaries, is processed and stored locally on the device. Since no data is sent to external servers, it's safe for those who prioritize privacy and security. It provides an uninterrupted Japanese input experience even in unstable locations like the subway, airplane mode, international roaming, and mountainous areas.
