Japanese (flick)

Choose "日本語 (フリック)" with the 🌐 key. The layout is the same as flick input on a smartphone.

How to type

Point at a kana key, pull the trigger, move the pointer toward the character you want, and release. While the trigger is pulled, the characters for the four directions appear around the key.

Character	Do this
あ (center)	Press and release in place
い	Move left and release
う	Move up and release
え	Move right and release
お	Move down and release

Pressing the same key again without moving goes to the next kana: あ → い → う, and so on. To turn this off, turn off "Input & sound" → "Flick: tapping a key again goes to its next kana" in the settings.

Dakuten, handakuten and small kana

The "小゛゜" key changes the last kana you typed to its dakuten, handakuten and small forms in turn (か → が, は → ば → ぱ, and so on).

Converting and confirming

The same as romaji input (see Japanese (romaji)).
