Armenian Keyboard Layouts
Introduction
These free keyboard layouts for iOS (iPad, iPod, iPhone) and macOS make it easy to type in the Armenian language.
1. Every letter and punctuation mark is directly accessible. (For numeric characters, one must use the numeric keypad or use another keyboard mapping.)
2. The arrangement is phonetic and resembles the English QWERTY layout. Anyone who touch types in English and is familiar with Armenian phonology will be able to touch type within a few minutes.
