Free Punjabi Keyboard
Type Gurmukhi with an on-screen or English keyboard.
What is the Punjabi Keyboard?
Typing Punjabi on a device that only has an English keyboard is a daily frustration for millions of Gurmukhi speakers — and installing a language pack isn't always possible on a shared or work computer.
This Punjabi keyboard lets you write Gurmukhi anywhere: click the on-screen keys, or type phonetically in English and convert to Punjabi.

What does this tool do?
It gives you an on-screen Gurmukhi keyboard — vowels, consonants, vowel signs, digits and common symbols — that inserts characters into a text box as you click.
It also includes a phonetic helper: type Punjabi words in English letters and it converts them to Gurmukhi, which you add to your text and copy anywhere.

Tips
- Use the phonetic box for speed, then fine-tune with the on-screen keys.
- Check conjuncts and matras — the phonetic helper is a guide, not perfect.
- Place the cursor where you want a character before clicking a key.
- Copy your text often so you don't lose it.
- Use the vowel-sign row to add matras to a consonant.
- The digits row gives Gurmukhi numerals (੦–੯).
- For a full stop, use the danda (।) in the Extra row.
- Paste into any app — messages, docs, forms — since it's Unicode.
Common mistakes to avoid
Expecting perfect phonetic conjuncts
Fix: The converter is a helper; review complex words and adjust with the on-screen keys.
Adding a matra before a consonant
Fix: Type the consonant first, then its vowel sign.
Assuming a font is needed
Fix: It's Unicode Gurmukhi, which displays on modern devices without extra fonts.
Forgetting to copy
Fix: The text isn't saved between visits — copy it when you're done.
