Available on Windows

The 687th most popular system tool on Windows

Google Pinyin IME (谷歌拼音输入法) is an input method developed by Google China Labs. The tool was made publicly available on April 4, 2007.

After Google Pinyin was initially released in April 2007, it was soon discovered that Google Pinyin's dictionary database contained employee names of Sogou Pinyin, an indication that the dictionary was taken from Sogou, one of Google's competitors in the Chinese Internet market. On April 8, 2007, Google admitted that they used "non-Google database resources". Sohu, the operator of Sogou, demanded that Google remove the application from its website, and threatened to sue Google if it refused. As of September 2008, Google Pinyin is still available on Google's website.

Google Pinyin installs and runs a service on Windows machines (GooglePinyinDaemon.exe) which is described as the Google Pinyin Network Daemon.

By the end of 2008, more than 20% users of Google Pinyin wanted a Linux version of the input method, but there has been no official response yet.

    一直认为句输入方式效率不高,另外就是输入快感不及字词输入方式。像智能狂拼做了那么多年还是原地打转,现在还是想靠强化辅助码来提高效率。
