Polly

Typed it on the wrong layout? Fixed.

Polly lives in your menu bar. When a word comes out on the wrong keyboard layout — ghbdtn instead of привет — it corrects the word and switches the layout for you.

Fixes words automatically after Space or Enter, or on a hotkey you choose
Works with the layouts you already use: Cyrillic, Hebrew, Arabic, Korean and the main Latin-script languages
Backspace right after a correction undoes it
Local only: nothing you type is stored or sent anywhere

For MacComing soon

Polly needs Accessibility and Input Monitoring access to see the keys you type. That access never leaves your Mac.
