Type in any language, play with physical keys, scroll at your speed

Typed-character mode sends what you type, whatever the two keyboards' layouts. Map mode sends physical key positions for shortcuts and games. A scroll speed setting tames fast trackpads.

Translate (default)

The character you type is the character that appears, for German, French, Japanese or any other layout on either side, emoji included.

Map: physical keys

Session options → Keyboard: send physical keys. Each key is sent by its position and held while you hold it, so the remote computer's own layout decides the character. Good for shortcuts, games and keyboard-heavy apps.

Scroll speed and smooth trackpads

Small trackpad movements are summed into whole wheel notches instead of one notch per event, and Scroll speed (×0.25 to ×4) adjusts it. Reverse wheel and swapped buttons are there too, and all of it follows your account to any browser.

Frequently asked questions

Does remote typing work with different keyboard layouts?

Yes. Translate mode sends the typed characters, so layouts don't need to match.
