Input Source Pro is an app for multilingual Mac users, providing numerous intuitive features such as automatic keyboard switching based on the app in use or the website being browsed, and an elegant display of the current input source.
It's amazing to see the community growing! This update is special because it includes contributions from several first-time contributors. A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to improve Input Source Pro. Your efforts are truly appreciated!
What's new
Added "Fix Cursor Lag Issues" to the Troubleshooting section (by Xicrosoft).
Added per-app option to force English punctuation (by neow021).
After announcing that Input Source Pro will remain free forever, I've decided to take it one step further by making it open source.
You can now find the code on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 License.
Life has gotten quite busy lately, so I might not be able to dedicate as much time to this project as I'd like (job hunting, interview preparation, and all that fun stuff). However, I'll do my best to keep things updated and maintained.
Contributions are always welcome—feel free to submit pull requests, report issues, or suggest new features.
Happy typing! 🫶

The beta tag has been removed! We might introduce a dedicated "beta channel" in the future with more frequent updates.
Added an announcement banner to let everyone know we've gone open source!
It’s been a while since my last update. One big reason I haven’t had much time for this project is that — I became a father to a lovely baby boy! Taking care of a newborn is far more challenging than we expected, but thankfully, we are still breathing 😮💨. That said, you might expect updates to Input Source Pro to remain infrequent over the next few months.
Many users have asked about the pricing of Input Source Pro after the beta period, and I finally have an answer: Input Source Pro will remain free for everyone to use. I did consider introducing paid features, but it just didn't feel right. Switching between tasks and languages is such a fundamental need for multilingual users that it really should be handled by the operating system.
Although Input Source Pro will be free to use, there are still ways you can support its development:
Enjoyed using it? Sharing it with others would mean a lot. ❤️
A month has flown by since our last update, and we're excited to reveal the new features and improvements we've been developing. Hopefully, we've successfully delivered these without introducing any additional bugs. 🤞

Improvements
We've tweaked the behaviour of the full size indicator, it won't show up each time you focus on a new input field within the same app anymore.
