#Kanagram also supports Indian languages. You can create categories and word lists within a category. You can also provide 'hints' for each word.  Currently the local language functionality is not working with complex words which are peculiar to Indian languages (like joint words or ottakshara). We currently can use Kanagram only for creating simple words in Telugu or other Indian languages. This issue may get solved in future upgrades of Kanagram.<br>
