beKEY is a software application whose purpose is to help you offer suggestions in order to complete the words you are currently typing via a virtual keyboard.

The tool places a virtual keyboard on your desktop which can be moved to several preset locations or placed to a custom screen position. You are allowed to quickly enable or disable the text prediction mode and text macros.

There’s support for two different keyboard layouts and you can easily switch between them. Aside from the virtual keyboard which looks easy to decode, the program accommodates several configuration settings under the hood so be prepared to take some of your time to discover them.

beKEY gives you the possibility to input text in a third-party text editor or other software programs via the virtual keyboard. As soon as you start clicking on the virtual keys, the application automatically reveals a list with several text predictions. A simple click on a target word is sufficient for inserting data into a text editor. In a similar way, you may add text macros (e.g. date, time).

You are allowed to change the looks of the virtual keyboard by making adjustments to the color scheme, key border, font size, round keys, and transparency.

What’s more, you can choose between different keyboard layouts (e.g. German, English, Numeric keypad), enable a compact mode, quickly change the language of the dictionary from the GUI, hide function keys, show multimedia keys, as well as set up the word prediction process in terms of algorithm used for displaying suggestions (Intelligent, Last Used, Most Used, Alphabetical) and sorting options (by probability or alphabetical order).

You can also make beKEY add space after words, remove space before punctuation, and capitalize the first word of the sentence. The utility lets you select the preferred language of the dictionary (e.g. English, German, Arabic, Italian), add or remove words to/from the dictionary, and sort the words included in the dictionary by a certain letter.

Last but not least, you can set up custom text macros, enable a touchscreen mode, and back up settings to a file so you can restore them in case something does not go according to the plan.

All things considered, beKEY comes in handy in case you are not a fan of a physical keyboard. If you are looking for a virtual replacement with text predictions that help you type faster, you can give this app a try. The program shows text suggestions very quickly and without hampering your computer performance.
