The Function key is generally a hardware combination trigger. My
laptop for example has an Fn key that combined with another key press
will control speaker volume or print screen (since it lacks that as a
separate key). Your keyboard documentation or a sighted user should
be able to tell you about any such combinations.
If you are talking about a full sized kb I would be amazed if it
doesn't have an APP key. Compact keyboards are another matter and I
don't care for them.
