Questions about this tool
Why did a capital letter become an odd symbol?
A capital means Shift was held, and on the Arabic layout Shift gives marks or symbols such as أ and إ. Tick "ignore capitals" if your phone capitalised the first letter.
What does the b key give?
On the Arabic layout the b key types two letters at once: lam and alef (لا).
Is my text stored?
No. The conversion runs in your browser and the text is not sent anywhere.
