If there is no improvement, the developer would appreciate your contacting him at (note: whatever email he puts there. i&#8217;m not going to put it here in case he changes it, and also to attempt to prevent spam).  * Things to do Before You use Simeji  * How to Register Simeji as an IME  Open System Settings -> Locale &#038; Text.
