Hamster (仓输入法) is an iOS third-party keyboard app that embeds the Rime Input Method Engine (librime) for highly customizable Chinese text input. It ships prebuilt librime frameworks and built-in schemas, and is available on the App Store.

Use cases

  • type Chinese with Rime on iPhone
  • use custom Rime schemas on iOS
  • install a customizable pinyin input method
  • bring my librime config to iOS
  • replace the default iOS keyboard with Rime

When to choose

  • you want the Rime engine's schema-based customization on an iPhone or iPad
  • you need a Chinese input method with full user-dictionary and schema control on iOS

When to avoid

  • you need an input method for Android, Windows, macOS, or Linux (use Trime, Weasel, or Squirrel instead)
  • you need guaranteed ongoing open-source development - the author has stated future code may not be open-sourced due to commercialization
