Free Online Hebrew Keyboard – Type Hebrew Anywhere in the World

Welcome to the most authentic Hebrew keyboard online (מקלדת עברית)! Our free virtual keyboard gives you instant access to all 22 Hebrew letters, including final forms and optional niqqud (vowel points), allowing you to type Hebrew from any computer, tablet, or smartphone. Whether you're in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, New York, or anywhere else in the world, AnyKeyboard brings Hebrew typing to your fingertips.

Why do millions of people need an online Hebrew keyboard? Hebrew is spoken by over 9 million people as a native language, primarily in Israel, with millions more using it for religious study worldwide. It's the only successfully revived ancient language in human history – once used only in religious texts, it became Israel's official language in the 20th century. Most computers outside Israel don't have Hebrew keyboards installed. Our virtual keyboard provides instant access – perfect for Israeli expatriates, Jewish communities worldwide, Hebrew students, and anyone interested in this ancient-yet-modern language.

The Hebrew alphabet (אלף-בית עברי) is an abjad writing system with 22 consonant letters written from right-to-left. Five letters have special final forms (sofit) used at the end of words: ך (final kaf), ם (final mem), ן (final nun), ף (final pe), ץ (final tsadi). Hebrew can be written with or without niqqud (vowel points) – modern texts usually omit them, while religious texts, poetry, and children's books include them. Our keyboard supports both styles.

Perfect for every Hebrew typing need: Write emails to Israeli friends and family, compose Hebrew documents, study Torah and Jewish texts, practice Biblical Hebrew, chat on Israeli social media, translate texts, or simply explore one of humanity's most historically significant languages. Hebrew connects 3,000+ years of Jewish literature from the Bible to modern Israeli startups.

Your privacy is guaranteed – all typing happens 100% locally in your browser. Nothing is ever sent to any server. Your Hebrew text stays on your device only. When you're done, copy your text with one click, save it as a file, or search directly on Google or YouTube.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an online Hebrew keyboard and who needs one?

An online Hebrew keyboard (מקלדת עברית) is a virtual keyboard that displays Hebrew letters on your screen, allowing you to type in Hebrew by clicking or tapping keys. It's essential for the 9+ million Hebrew speakers and millions of Jewish people worldwide who study Hebrew texts. Israeli expats, Hebrew students, Jewish communities, researchers studying ancient texts, and travelers to Israel all benefit from instant Hebrew typing access.

Does the keyboard support right-to-left (RTL) typing?

Yes! Hebrew is written from right to left, and our editor fully supports RTL text direction. When you start typing Hebrew, the text automatically flows from right to left. The cursor, text selection, and line wrapping all work correctly for RTL. You can even mix Hebrew (RTL) with English (LTR) text, and each portion will display in its correct direction.

What are the Hebrew final letters (sofit) and how do I type them?

Five Hebrew letters have special forms used only at the end of words: ך (khaf sofit), ם (mem sofit), ן (nun sofit), ף (pe sofit), ץ (tsadi sofit). On our keyboard, these have dedicated keys just like on physical Israeli keyboards. For example, the word 'shalom' (שלום) ends with mem sofit (ם), not regular mem (מ).

How do I add niqqud (vowel points) to Hebrew text?

Niqqud are the dots and dashes placed above, below, or inside Hebrew letters to indicate vowels. They're optional in modern Hebrew but essential for religious texts, poetry, and learning materials. On our keyboard, niqqud marks are accessed via Shift combinations, just like on physical Hebrew keyboards. This lets you write fully vocalized Hebrew for Torah study or educational purposes.

Is this Hebrew keyboard really free to use?

Absolutely free! AnyKeyboard's Hebrew keyboard has no hidden costs, no registration required, no ads, and no usage limits. Type as much Hebrew as you want with all letters, final forms, and niqqud. Perfect for Hebrew homework, religious study, or staying connected with Israeli friends and family.

Does the Hebrew keyboard work on iPhones, iPads, and Android devices?

Yes! Our Hebrew keyboard is fully responsive and works perfectly on all mobile devices – iPhones, iPads, Android phones, and tablets. The touch targets are optimized for finger tapping, and RTL text direction works correctly. You can type Hebrew comfortably on any device, anywhere.

How do I copy, save, or search my Hebrew text?

After typing, click 'Copy' to copy your Hebrew text to the clipboard – paste it anywhere (emails, documents, social media). Click 'Save' to download your text as a UTF-8 .txt file that preserves RTL direction. You can also click 'Google' or 'YouTube' to search your Hebrew text directly.

Is my Hebrew typing private and secure?

100% private. All typing happens locally in your browser – your Hebrew text is never sent to any server and never stored online. Your text exists only on your device until you close the tab. This is especially important for religious texts and personal correspondence.

Can I switch between Hebrew and other language keyboards?

Yes! AnyKeyboard supports 100+ languages including Arabic, Aramaic, Yiddish, English, and more. Use the Layout dropdown menu to instantly switch between keyboards. This is particularly useful for comparing Hebrew with related Semitic languages or for multilingual documents.

Can I practice Hebrew typing and measure my speed?

Yes! Click 'Speed Test' to switch to typing practice mode. You'll see Hebrew sentences to type, and the system measures your speed and accuracy in real-time. It's an excellent way to learn the Hebrew keyboard layout and improve your Hebrew typing fluency.

How is Hebrew different from Arabic?

Hebrew and Arabic are both Semitic languages written right-to-left, but they use different alphabets. Hebrew has 22 letters while Arabic has 28. Hebrew letters don't connect (except in cursive handwriting), while Arabic letters connect in most cases. Both languages are read without vowels in everyday use. Our keyboard supports both languages – switch easily in the Layout dropdown.

Why is Hebrew called a 'revived' language?

Hebrew is the only successfully revived dead language in history. For nearly 2,000 years (after the Bar Kokhba revolt in 135 CE), Hebrew existed only as a liturgical and literary language. In the late 19th century, Eliezer Ben-Yehuda led efforts to revive it as a spoken language. Today, it's the native language of millions of Israelis – a remarkable linguistic achievement unique in human history.
