Rune Keyboard

Version 1.0 — Last updated: 7 September 2026

Click any rune below to add it to the text box, then copy the result to paste into a document, chat, or design tool. This covers both alphabets we support: Elder Futhark (24 runes) and Younger Futhark (16 runes, long-branch) — see our Elder vs Younger Futhark guide if you’re not sure which one you need.

Why use a keyboard instead of the translator?

Our Rune Translator and Younger Futhark Translator convert English text automatically, which is fastest when you’re translating a whole word or phrase. This keyboard is for when you want manual, letter-by-letter control — building a custom design, correcting a specific character, or typing a name that the automatic converters don’t handle the way you want.

A note on fonts

These are real Unicode runic characters (Unicode block U+16A0–U+16FF), not an image or a custom font — they’ll paste correctly into most modern apps. How they render depends on the font installed on the device you paste into; if runes show up as boxes, the destination app doesn’t have a font with runic glyphs installed.
