Features & Capabilities

abcTajpu is a powerful Chrome extension designed for typing accented letters, international characters, symbols, and emojis across various languages directly within web text fields. It offers multiple input methods including a customizable popup dialogue accessed with shortcut keys (alt-k) and a context menu for quick insertion of special characters.

Users can create personalized macros and keyboard layouts via the extension's options page, allowing for tailored typing experiences.

Is abcTajpu Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

abcTajpu requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
