Wikipedia:
Sanskrit (/ˈsænskrɪt/; संस्कृतम् saṃskṛtam [səmskr̩t̪əm], originally संस्कृता वाक् saṃskṛtā vāk, "refined speech") is the primary liturgical language of Hinduism, a philosophical language in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism, and a scholarly literary language that was in use as a lingua franca in the Indian cultural zone. It is a standardized dialect of Old Indo-Aryan language, originating as Vedic Sanskrit and tracing its linguistic ancestry back to Proto-Indo-Iranian and ultimately to Proto-Indo-European. Today it is listed as one of the 22 scheduled languages of India[4] and is an official language of the state of Uttarakhand.[5] Sanskrit holds a prominent position in Indo-European studies.
The corpus of Sanskrit literature encompasses a rich tradition of poetry and drama as well as scientific, technical, philosophical and dharma texts. Sanskrit continues to be widely used as a ceremonial language in Hindu religious rituals and Buddhist practice in the forms of hymns and mantras. Spoken Sanskrit has been revived in some villages with traditional institutions, and there are attempts at further popularisation.

It's not working. I installed it, but it's not functioning. Need help. It would be a great help if I can use IAST diacritics on my android phone.

Jagajjālapālaṁ kacat kaṇṭha mālaṁ śaraccahandra bhālaṁ mahā daitya kālaṁ Those who are saying it's not installing, you have to install Multilingo Keyboard after you have installed IAST. After installing, you have to switch your default keyboard to multilingo keyboard. Hold the space bar of multilingo keyboard for a while and change the language to IAST
