virtual keyboard
Touchscreen letter interface
A virtual keyboard is a keyboard displayed on a screen rather than existing as physical hardware.
Users tap or click the on-screen keys to type.
Virtual keyboards appear on touchscreen devices like smartphones and tablets, and on computers as accessibility tools or security measures—since keyloggers can't capture clicks the way they capture keystrokes.
