Can I use this Hebrew keyboard on an iPhone, Android, Mac or Windows computer?

Yes. Open this page in a current browser on iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows, Mac or Chromebook and tap or click the keys. It works on the page without installing an app or adding a system keyboard. To type Hebrew in other apps directly, use your device’s keyboard settings; this page does not change them.

Can I write English and Hebrew in the same box?

Yes. Type English with your own keyboard and click the Hebrew keys for Hebrew. Both scripts remain in the same text. This does not translate English to Hebrew or convert phonetic spellings such as shalom to שלום.

How do the final letters work?

Choose ך for kaf, ם for mem, ן for nun, ף for pe and ץ for tsadi at the end of a word. Each has its own key and Unicode character. The keyboard does not automatically replace the regular forms.

How do I add vowel points?

Set Vowel points to Show, insert a Hebrew letter, then click its niqqud. For example, shin, shin dot, qamats, lamed, vav, holam and final mem produce שָׁלוֹם. Points copy with the letters; their appearance and pronunciation depend on the font, word and reading tradition. The board has vowel points, dagesh and shin/sin dots, but no Biblical cantillation keys.

Can I print the Hebrew keyboard layout?

Download layout SVG saves the letter-position picture. Open that SVG in a browser and use Print to make a paper reference. It shows the 22 letters and five final forms with their corresponding Latin-key positions in the Israeli layout. Number and punctuation keys are omitted. The download is SVG, not a PDF file.

Is my text saved or uploaded?

Typing happens locally and text is not uploaded. Your draft and the Show/Hide choice are saved in this browser after you edit them, when browser storage is available. Clear empties the draft; the page’s Start over control forgets saved settings. Download saves the text as a plain UTF-8 file.

Why can pasted Hebrew look different?

The receiving app controls direction and font rendering. In a mixed English/Hebrew sentence, numbers and punctuation can appear in a different visual order under bidirectional text rules. Choose a suitable paragraph direction and a font with Hebrew support in that app. The copied characters stay in the order entered here.

What are the ׳, ״ and ־ keys?

They insert Hebrew geresh, gershayim and maqaf. Geresh is used for abbreviations and combinations such as ג׳; gershayim appears before the last letter of an acronym such as תנ״ך. Maqaf is the Hebrew joining punctuation. These are distinct Unicode characters from Latin quotation marks and hyphens.
