The keyboard consists of four rows and seven columns. The leftmost two columns are the eight most used words ({{tp|[[li]]}}, {{tp|[[e]]}}, {{tp|[[ni]]}}, {{tp|[[a]]}}, {{tp|[[mi]]}}, {{tp|[[toki]]}}, {{tp|[[pona]]}}, {{tp|[[ala]]}}). The columns 3 through 6 contain words starting with each letter of the alphabet, sorted alphabetically: {{tp|ale, en, ike, jan, kama, la, ma, nimi, o, pi, sina, tawa, utala, wile}}. The remaining keys include punctuation and formatting options.

In order to insert the word on the key cap, the key should be tapped twice. For all remaining words, one must tap the first letter on this part of the keyboard, and then tap the key for the second letter (cyan), and, if the second letter was dark cyan, optionally the third letter. The last column lacks any words and consists of the following symbols/actions: period, question mark, backspace and new line. To type a dash between two words, the first word must be dragged towards the second one. This functionality exists to type scales compound glyphs in fonts such as {{tp|[[linja pona]]}}. Additionally, non-pu words are highlighted in an orange background.
