One keyboard. Both languages.

Type a mixed sentence naturally. TypeSmart figures out what is Sinhala and what is English — instantly.

You type:
mata oya report eka email karanna puluwan da
You get:
මට ඔය report එක email කරන්න පුලුවන් ද

English words like "report" and "email" pass through untouched. No need to toggle anything.

Why we built TypeSmart

We were tired of the constant friction of typing Sinhala digitally. We wanted something that just worked, everywhere.

The Old Way

  • Confusing keyboard layouts
  • Copying and pasting from web converters
  • Legacy FM fonts breaking on modern devices
  • Painful to mix English and Sinhala

With TypeSmart

  • Type exactly how it sounds (Singlish)
  • Works instantly in Word, WhatsApp, Chrome
  • Universal Unicode output everywhere
  • Mix languages naturally in the same sentence

Powerful Features

Engineered for speed, privacy, and simplicity.

Works in Every App

Because TypeSmart hooks globally into Windows, it works in Word, WhatsApp Web, Chrome, Photoshop, Notepad — anywhere you type.

SmartPad Editor

A standalone Sinhala rich-text editor with a full ribbon toolbar. Format text, change fonts, and convert legacy encodings instantly.

Smart Word Overlay

An intuitive on-screen overlay helps you pick the right word. The tool learns your frequent choices and auto-converts them over time.

App Filter & Privacy

Easily disable TypeSmart for specific apps like your code editor. It automatically pauses on password screens and browser address bars.

FM Font Converter

Highlight old FM Abhaya text in any application, press Win+Shift+F9, and instantly convert it to modern Unicode Sinhala.

Personal Dictionary & Bypasses

Add custom Singlish mappings. Easily bypass conversion for acronyms (ALL-CAPS) or by using the slash (/) and backslash (\) prefixes.
