FeaturesKeyboard layout fix
Everyone who writes in English and Russian knows ghbdtn. MetaWhisp catches it the moment you finish the word: ghbdtn turns into привет, the keyboard switches to Russian, and you keep typing. It works the other way too, and it is part of the free app.
A word is checked when you finish it, with a space, Return or punctuation.
Try ghbdtn or cgfcb,j, then a space.
To correct words typed on the wrong keyboard layout automatically, MetaWhisp watches each word as you finish it with a space, Return or punctuation. If the word only makes sense on the other layout, for example ghbdtn, which is привет on the Russian keyboard, it replaces the word and switches the macOS input source, so you can keep typing without stopping. It works between the U.S. English and Russian layouts, in both directions, and only for words the macOS spelling dictionaries recognise, so names and rare words stay untouched. A small card confirms each fix, and ⌘Z undoes it. To convert text you have already typed, select it and press Shift twice. It needs the Accessibility permission, stays out of password fields, Terminal and password managers, and is part of the free app. For every other way to fix a wrong layout, see the full guide.
A layout fixer that retypes passwords would be worse than none.
Password fields, anything that turns on Secure Event Input, Terminal, iTerm2, Remote Desktop, 1Password and Bitwarden are never touched.
Select a sentence typed on the wrong layout and press Shift twice to convert it. With nothing selected, it converts the current line.
Each fix shows a small card with a reminder, and ⌘Z undoes it like any other edit in that app.
It uses the input sources macOS names “U.S.” and “Russian”. Variants such as ABC or Russian – PC are ignored.
English and Russian: the U.S. layout and the standard Russian one, the two macOS calls “U.S.” and “Russian”. Other variants, such as ABC or Russian – PC, are left alone.
Only when the word is a real word on the other layout. Rare words, names and brands stay as typed, words longer than 24 letters are skipped, and a word is never touched while you are still typing it.
Press ⌘Z. A small card shows each fix with that reminder, and the undo works like any undo in the app you are typing in.
Yes. Select it and press Shift twice, and the selection is converted to the other layout. With nothing selected, double Shift converts the line you are on.
In ordinary text fields, yes. It stays out of password fields and anything that turns on Secure Event Input, and out of Terminal, iTerm2, Remote Desktop, 1Password and Bitwarden. It needs the macOS Accessibility permission.
No. Words are checked on your Mac against the macOS spelling dictionaries, nothing is sent or stored, and the fix is typed directly, without touching your clipboard.
Free for Mac, together with dictation, meetings and the rest.
