Tips & recommendations
Pro tips to get the most out of this tool.
Gamers: check your keybinds first
Before remapping, open the simulator and confirm exactly which key your intended action sits on in your current layout.
DVORAK takes time
Switching to DVORAK is a weeks-long investment. Use the simulator to plan, then commit — the speed gain is real but not instant.
AZERTY hides symbols
On AZERTY, symbols like @ sit on the A key and numbers need Shift. The simulator shows these traps clearly.
Use it for accessibility planning
Planning a custom layout or one-handed setup? Visualise every key before you configure your OS remapping.
