Detailed Guide
Step 1: Choose Your Language Pair
At the top of the page, you'll see a language selector showing a flag and language name. Click on it to see all available languages. Select the non-English language you were accidentally typing in. KeySwap will convert between that language and English automatically.
Step 2: Input Your Mistyped Text
On the left side, you'll see the "Mistyped text" input area. You can either:
- Paste text: Copy your mistyped text (Ctrl+C) and paste it (Ctrl+V) into the box
- Type directly: Just start typing if you want to test how it works
The character count at the bottom shows how many characters you've entered.
Step 3: View and Copy the Result
The "Swapped result" box on the right instantly shows your converted text. Click the "Copy" button to copy it to your clipboard, then paste it wherever you need it. The button will briefly show "✓ Copied!" to confirm.

Preventing Wrong Keyboard Mistakes
Here's how to avoid typing with the wrong layout in the future:
Check your taskbar/menu bar
Windows shows the current language in the bottom-right corner. Mac shows it in the top menu bar. Glance at it before you start typing.
Learn your switch shortcut
Windows: Alt+Shift or Win+Space | Mac: Ctrl+Space or Cmd+Space | Linux: Super+Space
Use visual keyboard indicators
Some apps and operating systems can display an on-screen indicator when you switch layouts. Enable this in your system settings for a helpful visual cue.
