Questions

How do I type आ, ई and ऊ?

Double the vowel: aa = आ / ा, ee or ii = ई / ी, oo or uu = ऊ / ू. For example "kitaab" = किताब and "pooja" = पूजा.

How do I type ं (bindu) and ँ (chandrabindu)?

Type capital M for ं and MM for ँ, as in "saMvidhaan" = संविधान. An "n" before a consonant becomes ं automatically, so "rang" = रंग.

How do I type ड़, ढ़, ऋ and ष?

R = ड़, Rh = ढ़, rri = ऋ / ृ (as in "krripa" = कृपा), Sh = ष. See the full chart below the tool.

A word came out wrong. How do I fix it?

Press backspace straight after the word changes and you get your English letters back. You can then edit them, or click letters on the Hindi keyboard.

Can I paste this into Word, WhatsApp or a form?

Yes. The text is standard Unicode Hindi (Mangal / Nirmala UI), which works everywhere. For Kruti Dev, use our Kruti Dev converter.
