ChartKey: Medical Keyboard
Nurse Dictation & Autocorrect
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Stop fighting autocorrect. ChartKey never mangles MRI, metoprolol or q4h, expands .sbar into a full note, dictates without the cloud, and never sends what you type.
Apple's keyboard, but it went to med school.
ChartKey is a full replacement iPhone and iPad keyboard for people who chart: nurses, doctors, therapists, techs and students. It types like the keyboard you already know — and stops fighting you the moment the words turn clinical.
AUTOCORRECT THAT KNOWS THE WORDS
• A curated clinical vocabulary on top of full English autocorrect — 700+ drug names, conditions, procedures
• A protection list that refuses to "fix" MRI, BUN, q4h, PERRLA and the abbreviations you actually meant
• Tall Man lettering for look-alike drug names
• Your own learned words, kept on this phone only
DOT PHRASES ON YOUR PHONE
• Type .sbar and get the full SBAR template with fill-in fields
• 46 built-in templates: handoff, discharge, wound care, triage and more
• Your own snippets with dates, times and fill-ins — five free, unlimited in Pro
• Share packs with your unit as .chartkey files
THE CHARTKEY KEY
• Drug-name search without leaving the keyboard
• An expander for 1,500+ clinical abbreviations, with a free daily meter
• Clinical calculators (Pro)
MEDICAL DICTATION, ON YOUR PHONE
• Speak a note and get clinical formatting: HPI headers, vitals, doses and units
• The same medical lexicon behind it, so it writes metoprolol, not "metropolitan"
• Do-not-use abbreviations rewritten as you dictate — "q d" becomes "daily"
• Runs on your iPhone, not in someone's cloud. Read it, edit it, then decide what to do with it
SPECIALTY PACKS
Twelve packs — nursing, emergency, ICU, cardiology, pediatrics, OB, psych, surgery, pharmacy, med-surg, oncology, ortho — 2,800+ specialty terms tuning the dictionary to your unit. One pack free, all twelve in Pro.
A SAFETY GUARD, NOT A NANNY
ChartKey quietly flags Joint Commission do-not-use abbreviations as you type them — an underline, never a block.
PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE
The keyboard has no network access — not "we don't", it can't. What you type never leaves your phone. No account, no ads, no analytics in the keyboard, ever. The Time-Saved report is computed from anonymous counters on your device.
FREE & PREMIUM
Free forever: the full medical autocorrect, the protection list, predictions, symbols and units, built-in dot phrases, five custom snippets, one specialty pack and twenty abbreviation expansions a day. We never degrade typing itself.
ChartKey Pro: unlimited snippets in folders, all twelve packs, an unmetered expander, medical dictation, clinical calculators, one-handed mode, keyboard height and extra themes. Weekly, monthly and yearly plans all start with a 3-day free trial, or pay once for lifetime.
ChartKey is a typing tool, not a clinical reference or decision-support system. Confirm clinical content against your institution's approved sources.
