Type Hebrew here without installing anything or changing a single setting, even if your keyboard shows only Latin letters (מקלדת עברית).
Three ways to type Hebrew
Click the on-screen keys with your mouse or finger if the Israeli layout is new to you. On a computer you can type directly on your own keyboard using the standard Hebrew layout; press Esc to turn that mapping on or off. On a phone or tablet, tap "Load Keyboard" and type on the screen, with no need to change your device's own keyboard. The text flows right-to-left automatically, and Backspace, Enter, and the space bar behave normally.
Hebrew and English on the same keys
On this layout, Shift types Latin letters, so you can drop an English word into Hebrew text without switching keyboards. The five final letters have their own keys (ך, ם, ן, ף, ץ), the geresh ׳ marks sounds like ג׳ (j) and צ׳ (ch) in loanwords, the gershayim ״ marks acronyms, and Alt+4 types the shekel sign ₪.
Type by sound (shalom → שלום)
Turn on the Transliteration switch above the keyboard, then spell a word the way it sounds in Latin letters. A popup lists ranked Hebrew spellings: pick one with the arrow keys and Space or Enter, or click it. It works word by word and the ranking is a best guess, so glance at the result; it saves hunting for letters like ע and ט while the layout is still unfamiliar.
Niqqud (vowel points)
Everyday Hebrew is written without vowel points, so you can skip these entirely. When you do need them, for a name, a children's text, or a quotation: turn on Caps Lock, hold Shift, and the number row types the points, from sheva through the dagesh and the shin and sin dots. Type the letter first, then its point. For full biblical typesetting, the layout menu also offers Biblical Hebrew (SIL) and Biblical Hebrew (Tiro) with the cantillation marks.
Copy, translate, or send your text
When your text is ready, hit Copy (or Ctrl+C / Cmd+C) and paste it anywhere: WhatsApp, a document, a search box. Undo, Redo, Clear, and a right-to-left alignment toggle sit in the same toolbar. From this page you can also translate what you wrote, search Google or Wikipedia in Hebrew, or send it as an email. If a Word document flips your Hebrew or scrambles lines that mix digits and letters, set the paragraph direction to right-to-left.
Frequently asked questions
Is this Hebrew keyboard free?
Yes. No installation, sign-up, or download. Open the page and start typing in Hebrew right away.
Can I use this Hebrew keyboard on my phone (iPhone or Android)?
Yes. Tap "Load Keyboard" and use the on-screen keys, or set your phone's own keyboard to Hebrew and type into the page. Typing by sound and the Copy button work on mobile too.
Do I need to install a Hebrew keyboard on Windows or Mac?
Not for this page; it runs in your browser. For system-wide Hebrew: on Windows add Hebrew under Settings → Time & Language → Language; on macOS use System Settings → Keyboard → Input Sources; on phones add Hebrew under keyboard settings.
How do I type niqqud (Hebrew vowel points)?
Turn on Caps Lock, hold Shift, and press the number-row keys; each one inserts a different point. Type the letter first and its point right after it.
Why do ך, ם, ן, ף, and ץ look different?
They are final forms, used when כ, מ, נ, פ, or צ closes a word. On this layout each final form has its own key, so press the final key at the end of the word.
Can I type biblical Hebrew with cantillation marks?
Yes. Open the layout menu and choose Biblical Hebrew (SIL) or Biblical Hebrew (Tiro); both add the te'amim and the full pointing used in biblical texts.
