How to switch Google Japanese keyboard to romaji input instead of hiragana? I just got a new phone so I had to reinstall my Japanese IME and it has a kana layout kinda like a flip phone too. I heard that the Google IME will let you use romaji input like a regular keyboard, but how do I switch it?
Google Japanese Input currently supports 3 layouts:


12 keys: Mobile phone layout
QWERTY: PC keyboard layout
Godan keyboard: Romaji-dedicated layout


You can change it from Settings - Language &amp; input - Google Japanese Input - Keyboard layout.
