Systems and methods for multiuse of keys for virtual keyboard and generating animation associated with a key

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions, that when executed by a computing device having a touchscreen display, cause the computing device to perform operations of:

• generating a plurality of keys of a virtual keyboard user interface for presentation on the touchscreen display;
• displaying on the touchscreen display, a first key among the plurality of keys selectable for performing a first function and a second function different from the first function, wherein the first key has a first display state and a second display state different than the first display state, and wherein the first key has the second display state upon selection for performance of the second function;
• and
• displaying on the touchscreen display, a second key among the plurality of keys selectable for performing a third function differing from the first and second functions, wherein the second key has a third display state and a fourth display state different than the third display state, and wherein the second key has the fourth display state upon selection for performance of the second function, and wherein the second display state and the fourth display state include a shared visual indication;
• wherein, the first key has the first display state before the second key is selected and in response to the second key being selected by a user selection of the second key for performance of the second function, the first key is changed to having the second display state and the first key and the second key are displayed with the shared visual indication.
