About LangSwitcher
LangSwitcher fixes text typed while the wrong keyboard layout was active. Select the text, or let it pick the last word or the mistyped part of the line, press the hotkey (a double Shift by default), and it rewrites the text in the intended layout using your installed system layouts.
It runs from the menu bar and offers builds for Apple silicon, Intel and universal Macs. It positions itself as an open alternative to Punto Switcher and Caramba Switcher.
