Switch to typing in a different language with the click of the mouse, and switch back just as easily. The Google Input Tools extension provides virtual keyboards for over 90 languages, full IMEs or direct transliteration for over 30 different scripts, and handwriting input for over 40 languages.
What's New?
✓ Malayalam now prioritize Arabic numerals as the default output when typing numbers. This change makes it easier to input numbers, as Malayalam numerals are not commonly used.
Usage Instructions:
When you first install the extension, click on the extension icon, then select "Extension Options" in the pop-up menu. A new tab will appear where you can select your preferred languages or input methods. The keyboards, IMEs or handwriting input you add to 'Selected input tools' can be enabled at any time from the extension itself. You can always return to this options page to add, remove, or change the order of your input tools.
input tool, simply click on the extension icon, select the desired language tool in the pop-up menu, then click on any text box on the web page. To turn off an input tool, click on the extension icon and select the "Turn Off" option.
To use transliteration, type languages phonetically in English letters, and they'll appear in their correct alphabet. Keep in mind that transliteration is different from translation; the sound of the words is converted from one alphabet to the other, not the meaning. For example, to get in नमस्ते with Hindi transliteration, type in n-a-m-a-s-t-e. You will get a list of Hindi words sound like namaste. Then, press SPACE to select the first suggestion नमस्ते.
Latin IMEs are to help people type in Latin-script languages using the US keyboard. Features include automatic diacritics, spell correction, and prefix completion. To use Latin IMEs, type unaccented letters, and they will be corrected to a desired word. For example, type "franca" in French IME, "français" appears, and it can be committed by pressing TAB. If continuously typing "francais", "français" will be committed by
pressing SPACE. To get all the candidates for "francais", press BACKSPACE.
To use handwriting input, select the handwriting input of your desired language. Press trackpad or left click of mouse to hand draw a character on the pop-up handwriting panel. Select the character from the suggestion list, or simply press ENTER or SPACE key to select the first suggestion.

- (2025-05-27) Srimal Priyanga: Issue with Google Input Tools in Edge Sidebar Mode Hello, I’m a dedicated user of Google Input Tools and rely on it daily for a smooth multilingual typing experience. I have noticed an issue when using the extension within Microsoft Edge’s sidebar. When I open Google Docs in the sidebar, the input tools fail to activate, whereas they work perfectly in a full Edge tab. It appears that the sidebar’s more constrained and potentially sandboxed environment is preventing the extension’s scripts from executing properly. I understand that this might be due to architectural limitations within Edge’s sidebar mode, but this functionality would greatly enhance usability for those of us who prefer a streamlined workspace. I kindly request that the developers look into compatibility with Microsoft Edge’s sidebar, or at least provide clarity on any possible workarounds or future updates that might address this issue. Thank you for your continued work on this invaluable tool.

- (2025-01-07) Raymond Yeung: The recent changes in syllable symbols of the Cantonese input method is a nightmare to current users. It is beginning to follow the system of JyutPing (e.g. "Juen" becomes "Jyun"), which a lot of users don't prefer due to its differences to conventional pronunciation of a word. More importantly, there is already a separate input method for JyutPing, so there is really no point to change the Cantonese one. I beg the people behind to stop and revert the changes, thank you.

- (2024-10-29) Tudu Infotech: Dear Sir / Ma'am, I'm Samu Tudu from Jharkhand, India. I have been using Google Input Tools to write in Hindi since 2017. Since then I love this very much. I am a contributor to the Santali (Ol Chiki) Translation community of Google Crowdsource, Telegram & MX Player. I have been using another Santali (Ol Chiki) typing tool to write in Santali for the last 3 years. There are many languages available in Google Input Tools, except Santali (Ol Chiki). Kindly add Santali (Ol Chiki) keyboard in Google Input Tools. So that everyone can write in Santali (Ol Chiki) by using Google Input Tools. For better understanding, you can take reference from the link given below. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:UniversalLanguageSelector/Input_methods/sat-Sarjom_baha Regards, Samu Tudu
