Switch language

Change layout

There are several ways to change the layout:

Tap the button

The classic way is to tap the  button. Adjust the position of the  button for your convenience: it may be located to the left or to the right of the space bar. You can do this in the settings: open the Yandex Keyboard app and go to Keys → Globe key position.

If you only use this way of changing the layout, you can disable the  button:

1. Tap and hold the  icon next to the space bar and select  .

2. Go to Keys.

3. Disable the option Language switch key.
