### 4/5 — Almost great

*2023-12-25, version 1.3*

I'm very halpy this exists and it does a good job that not many apps seem to do.

If I could suggest things, I'd say the design seems to use many (all) non-standard UI controls, or could benefit from inheriting more standard iOS design elements. Which means the UI could be nicer.

The other thing I would have liked, if there were a way to use this as an iMessage app, in the iOS 17 messages apps picker. I guess it could go around requiring full keyboard access. And I wouldn't need to have the additional keyboard enabled at all, since I only ever use it in Messages anyway.

Other than that, great job at an amazing pricepoint! (maybe IAP to enable Messages app? 😉)

### 5/5 — Works well as an alternate keyboard for iPhone 12!

*2022-09-08*

Handy app. Simple and works great!

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2022-04-25*

I love this app! Great for if you use some of the same small sentences or phrases frequently and you don’t want to type in each time or copy and paste from your notes. It’s just simply the tap of a couple buttons and you can put a complete sentence down that would otherwise take 10+ seconds to find and copy from your notes or even a couple minutes just to type in manually. Totally recommend!

### 5/5 — This is helpful for people who can’t write but knows how to read!!!

*2022-02-15, version 1.3*

Can you help me cause the “Canned Keyboard” is not showing in the “Add Keyboard” section of my phone

### 5/5 — Canned Responses keyboard

*2021-11-23, version 1.3*

It was not easy to install the keyboard, but it was because I already had 3 additional keyboards. After removing less used, Canned Responses keyboard took its place and already saved me a HUGE amount of time!!! Highly recommend

### 5/5 — Great and Works without full keyboard

*2021-08-19*

This app is very useful and will save me lots of time replying to emails. It actually works without enabling full keyboard access as long as you don’t edit the canned responses after you make them initially.  thank you for a great free app.

### 4/5 — Good program... but

*2021-03-14*

Good program... but

I wish the data from my canned responses synchronized with my app on my iPad and other devices

### 5/5 — No crashing

*2020-08-03*

Hasn’t crashed on me.  Add the ability to backup the canned messages

### 3/5 — Little problem

*2020-03-26, version 1.0*

The app keeps closing by itself
It would be gladly appreciated if we get a fix for that

### 3/5 — Crashes a lot

*2020-01-28*

Works well other than lots of crashing

### 3/5 — Crashes with certain phrases

*2019-09-07, version 1.0*

Every time I create an entry with multiple periods and no spaces after the periods the app will crash and the only to get it working again is to uninstall/reinstall word.nextword.thirdphrase will crash it...
If they fix that scenario it would be 5 stars!

### 5/5 — It is great

*2019-05-04, version 1.0*

This app saves me from a lot of typing. Thank you

### 1/5 — Unusable as of Oct 2019

*2019-10-25, version 1.0*

I went to save a message and it glitched out. I'm using iPhone X on IOS 13.1.3.

### 1/5 — Crashing!

*2019-09-06*

The worst app ever and used to be the best. Lost my canned responses! Now every time I try to use it it crashes on me. Doesn’t load canned responses at all and there’s no way to back up them. Just paid $10 for another app that does the same tint but looks way better and is reliable. Worth every penny. Now I don’t have to waste my time on rewriting responses that got lost because of this terrible crashing app. Pass on it.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2019-04-10*

Great idea and would really like to use this. I’m a real estate agent and this would be very handy if it worked. I’ve deleted and reinstalled twice and it keeps crashing when I try to open it. Can’t give more than one star because I can’t use it. Fix the issues and I’ll write another review.

### 1/5 — Crash crash crash

*2018-12-08, version 1.0*

Was great for about a day now it crashes every time I open

### 1/5 — App is basically unusable

*2018-11-23*

App crashes, and won’t open.  Many others reporting same issue, yet no response or help from developer. Please do not download and waste your time.  Developers like this should not be supported and should be removed from App Store.

### 1/5 — Risolvete

*2018-08-01, version 1.0*

Si continua a chiedere la app da sola

### 1/5 — Crashed

*2018-01-30, version 1.0*

With 2 minutes of downloading the app has crashed and will no longer open. Bummer, I really wanted to use and like this app.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2017-06-04, version 1.0*

It worked well until today it crashed. Won't load and stopped working altogether. It's a shame. Loved this little app.

### 2/5 — Looks good, but crashes, cannot use it

*2020-01-21*

First review I read said: it crashes. I said: that happens to all but me. Installed it, saved the first response, but now I cannot open app again. Each time I try, well, it... crashes

### 2/5 — Wish it worked

*2019-07-17*

Worked for a little. Now crashes and will not work. Have uninstalled and reinstalled. No luck. When it was working it was just what I needed. Hopefully this will get fixed.

### 5/5 — Saves so much time

*2026-07-08*

I’ve used this app for quite a while. For repeat messages I need to send to people, this app is a lifesaver.

### 5/5 — works great

*2026-05-27*

I was using another product, but this is far superior and it AutoCorrect spelling and other issues that the other one did not in format better

Possibly it involves AI not sure

question for Support
How can I use this on other mobile devices without retyping the various canned text forms that I’ve created?

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-09-15*

It is amazing and simple. I need to reply to emails with a lot of the same stuff so this saves my finger from doing the extra work

### 5/5 — Life helper!

*2025-09-08, version 1.3*

This is by far one of the most useful apps I have on my phone. As a tattooer I write the same replies and explanations very often and this little tool saves me time and nerves every single time. 

Especially the feature of naming and sorting the responses is so smart. Thank you for this app!!!

### 5/5 — I love the app

Helped me a lot with my work
