Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to virtual keyboard input management. An input can be received from a user on a virtual keyboard with multiple keyboard modes, the virtual keyboard having one or more controls for toggling between the multiple keyboard modes. A determination can be made whether a control for toggling between the multiple keyboard modes was unintentionally activated or unintentionally not activated by the user resulting in an unintentional input. An intended input can be determined in response to determining that the control for toggling between the multiple keyboard modes was unintentionally activated or unintentionally not activated by the user resulting in the unintentional input. The determined intended input can then be input instead of the unintentional input.
