This Swedish virtual keyboard mirrors the QWERTY layout of a physical Swedish keyboard. Its 48 character keys reach the 29 letters of the Latin script (U+0041–U+005A, U+0061–U+007A, U+00C0–U+024F) straight from the browser, with no software to install and no system setting to change.
The layout reaches 8 characters that an ordinary Latin keyboard does not carry: ¤ § ¨ ´ ½ ä å ö.

How to type in Swedish
Click the on-screen keys or type on your physical keyboard — both write into the same text area.
Shift shows the second layer of every key: capitals and the characters printed at the top right.
The Copy button puts the whole text on the clipboard, ready to paste into an email, a document or a form.
The Google, YouTube and ChatGPT buttons run a search with the text you typed, without retyping it.
Key reference table
Each row is one physical key: the base character, the one produced with Shift, then the one produced with AltGr.

Swedish uses a QWERTY-based layout with å, ä, ö as dedicated keys. The layout is similar to other Nordic keyboards (Danish, Norwegian).
How do I type the å character?
The å (a with ring) is a distinct Swedish letter, not just 'a' with a diacritic. It has its own key on Swedish keyboards, usually to the right of P.
What's the difference between ä and ö?
Ä and ö are separate vowels with distinct sounds: ä sounds like 'e' in 'bed', ö sounds like 'i' in 'bird'. They're essential letters in Swedish.
Can I use this keyboard for Norwegian or Danish?
Yes, Swedish, Norwegian, and Danish keyboards are very similar. All three use å, ä/æ, ö/ø. The main difference is æ/ø (Norwegian/Danish) vs ä/ö (Swedish).
How do I type special characters like @, $, €?
Use AltGr combinations: AltGr+2 for @, AltGr+4 for $, AltGr+E for €. Some symbols are on Shift+number keys.
How do I type the Euro symbol €?
Press AltGr + E to type the Euro symbol on Swedish keyboards.
What is the alphabetical order in Swedish?
Swedish alphabet has 29 letters: A-Z plus å, ä, ö at the end. So the order is ...x, y, z, å, ä, ö.
How do I type uppercase Å, Ä, Ö?
Use Shift + the letter key or enable Caps Lock. All three special letters have uppercase forms used at the beginning of words and names.
Can I type in Finnish with this keyboard?
Swedish and Finnish keyboards are nearly identical, both having å, ä, ö. Finnish uses these letters more frequently and has some additional characters available.
