Note: This API is part of the legacy Input Manager. The recommended best practice is that you don't use this API in new projects. For new projects, use the Input System package. To learn more about input, refer to Input.
You should be polling this variable from the MonoBehaviour.Update function, since the state gets reset each frame.
It will not return true until the user has released all keys / buttons and pressed any key / buttons again.
This does not detect touches. For touches, use Input.touchCount.
