How do I type it on a smart phone?

Community Answer

For an iPhone, go to the keyboard settings and add the Greek language keyboard. Now, when you're typing something, click the globe in the bottom left hand corner of the screen so the keyboard changes to Greek. The pi symbol will be shown on the virtual keyboard.

The easiest (but most tedious) way is to search Pi and see if you can copy and paste it to where you need it to be.

How do I type the Pi symbol on Windows 10 if I don't have NUM lock?

You don't need a NUM lock; instead, just hold down the alt key and type 227. The 227 has to be from the keyboard on the right side of your keyboard.

Be sure that your "number lock" ("num lk") is on. That key is on your number pad.
