Unifon was used at one point to write several languages in northern California, so it has seen practical application. I'm not sure how much material was published in this form. I don't think that any of these tribes is still using Unifon.
You’re right. Unifon has been used by the Yurok, Karuk, Tolowa and Hupa in the 70’s and the 80’s IIRC. Now, they have switched to writing systems based on the Latin alphabet. I’ve been told that several books have been printed in their languages using Unifon. However, a few letters have changed since then.
