Virtual Keyboard Online: Russian, Arabic, Korean, Greek and More

Choose the Русский layout. While “Type in this layout from your computer keyboard” is on, each key on your keyboard types the Russian letter that sits in its place on the Windows Russian layout: Q gives Й, W gives Ц, A gives Ф, and so on. You can also simply click the letters on the on-screen keyboard. Copy the finished text with the Copy button.

In Windows 10 and 11, press Win+Ctrl+O, or in Windows 11 go to Settings → Accessibility → Keyboard → On-screen keyboard. On a Mac, open System Settings → Accessibility → Keyboard and turn on Accessibility Keyboard. The system on-screen keyboard types in whatever layout is active in the system; here you pick the language from the list, with no layout to install.

Choose العربية: the letters sit where the Windows Arabic (101) layout puts them — Q gives ض, W gives ص, A gives ش — and the text box switches to right-to-left. The vowel marks are on Shift: Shift+Q is fatha, Shift+E is damma, Shift+A is kasra, Shift+X is sukun, and Shift with the key left of 1 is shadda; type the letter first, then its mark. The lam-alif ligature لا is on the B key.

The German, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Greek layouts have dead keys — their sign is yellow on the on-screen keyboard. A dead key doesn't print anything right away; it waits for the next letter: ^ then e gives ê, ¨ then u gives ü. If the next letter can't take that accent, the accent is printed on its own before it, and a space after a dead key gives the sign itself.

Choose 한국어 and press the jamo — consonants and vowels build syllables on their own, as on the Windows Korean layout: ㅎ, ㅏ, ㄴ give 한. The double consonants ㄲ, ㄸ, ㅃ, ㅆ, ㅉ and the vowels ㅒ, ㅖ are typed with Shift. Backspace removes the last jamo of a syllable, not the whole syllable.

On a touchscreen the phone's keyboard is hidden so it doesn't cover the on-screen one. If you'd rather type on the keyboard you're used to, tap “Phone keyboard” above the text box; tap it again to hide it. In portrait mode the board is wider than the screen and scrolls sideways; in landscape it fits entirely.
