About Tamil Pad APK
Table Of Contents
Description
TamilPad is a lightweight tool/utility which comes in handy to type in tamil using normal english soft keyboard.The main advantage TamilPad offers is that it doesn't require Internet connection. As you start typing the text is instantly converted into tamil in another view below english text.
Other features include:
* Allows saving the text to a file.
* Opening saved TamilPad text for re-editing.
* Allows sending the text via SMS and Email.
* The text can also be copied which can be later pasted wherever required.(Say for example, you want to add a new contact to phonebook with name in tamil.)
* Separate buttons are available at the top for each of these features.
Examples:
தமிழ் --- tamizh
திருவண்ணாமலை --- tiruvaNNaamalai
சிறந்த நண்பர் --- ciRanta naNpar
The saved documents can be located in your external storage(or in your Internal storage on some devices) at: /Your_SD_Card/TamilPad folder.
The saved documents can be opened with any text editor of your choice. The same file opens perfectly on your laptop/desktop too. However if you want to update the file, you should open it in TamilPad.
One more thing to note here is that the folder also contains a "tmp" folder which contains some metadata of the files saved. So please make sure that the files under this folder is not deleted incase you want to edit the saved files later.
Regarding sending email, the first part of the text until an enter key press is treated as the email subject. And the remaining text goes as the email body.
Please Note: The app purely depends on the unicode support of your device. As you start typing in english, if you dont see corresponding tamil text being generated, then probably your device doesnt support unicode and sorry that TamilPad cannot be of any use to you.
The permissions read/write external storage are for opening/saving existing TamilPad documents. The other permissions are of course added to serve advertisements.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
