I definitely want to do something to be able to read Tamil on my phone. I have searched in Google about Tamil fonts in Android and found millions of people are waiting for the Tamil Unicode implementation in Android. (Some of Indian Language has more than 1000 chars :S:S:S:S:SJ) ( PS: sorry for the lack of Tamil history knowledge ) Tamil is a “classic“ south Indian language, more than 2000 years old (I’m not very sure). Tamil is a south Indian language, more than 2000 years old and derived from Sanskrit Language. So it started with my research about Tamil Unicode Fonts. I didn’t want to let my Samsung Galaxy s2 go down in comparison with his IPhone and I challenged him to make my phone able to read Tamil Unicode fonts. Users are limited to certain functions.Īnyway we leave the topic which of the Operating system is best ) my friend said IPhone can read Unicode fonts where Android does not include all Unicode letters. Android is open source and allows exploring more in your own way where IPhone OS (IOS) is exclusive to the users. My argument was “it depends of the needs”. One of my friends has IPhone and we had an argument which of the OS is best for current user. Since Tamil Unicode is not implemented in Android I also wasn’t that much interested in digging OS for Tamil fonts. I’m Android user since two years and I never thought to access Tamil websites or any Tamil content through my smartphone. I think it’s time to write another article about the hot topic “Tamil fonts in Android OS”. Again couple of months are gone since I wrote my last article.
