is it possible to add @ on every keyboard layout on key with number 2? it exists only on american keyboard layout
MacBook Air
@ is already on Shift 2 for Russian Phonetic. It is on Option 2 for the other Russian layouts.
For Austrian it is Option L
Look at Karabiner
I wondered if the fact that there is no currently assigned default to the shift2 keystroke might be an issue.
Unfortunately as I'm using an American English keyboard with no similar keystroke available I couldn't test that.
🙁
You could use an assignment such as replace AA or aa with @.
Yes.
At System Preferences > Keyboard > Text you can define a shortcut that will type the @ when you use it. For example replace the keystroke <shift-2> with <@>.
No ,it doesn’t function too.
when I press the keystroke shift2 Mac records only 2 in the column .
Unfortunately it doesn’t function .Without brackets it doesn’t function too
Did I do it correctly?
Nice. 👍🏽
Sorry. I was unclear. Don't use the brackets.
Just click the plus sign (+) at the bottom to add a new text replacement. Then press the keystroke shift2. The Mac will (should) record that into the first column.
Then tab to the second column and type just the @ symbol.
Close the panel and you're done.

You may not be setting this up correctly. For the Russian and Austrian keyboard, shift 2 is the quotation mark, so your replace with table looks like this:
But you really don't want your quote marks always replaced by @, so best choose something else, like two them. So typing shift 2 twice in succession gives you @.
An alternative is to make a custom layout. This is pretty easy using the Ukelele app.
@ symbol (f.e on Russian or Austrian keyboard layout
