## What is iSureType?

iSureType reimagines typing on iOS.  A T9 multi-tap engine — backed by
a 370,000-word dictionary and grammar-aware ranking — turns three or
four taps into the word you meant.  An on-device OCR wizard powered by
Apple's Vision framework lifts text out of any photo, structures
documents as Markdown, and extracts contact fields from business cards.
Two Liquid Glass home-screen widgets put your most-used surfaces one tap
away.

iSureType is a subscription app: the keyboard, OCR, widgets, and every feature
below require an active iSureType subscription. Try it all free for 7 days, then
$39.99/year (US — pricing varies by region). Cancel anytime.

PRIVACY BY CONSTRUCTION
Every recognition path runs on your iPhone.  No photos are uploaded.
No typed text is logged.  No third-party model weights are bundled.
iSureType requests no network entitlement. For more details, see:
• https://isuretype.com/privacy
• https://isuretype.com/terms

KEYBOARD
• T9 disambiguation with contextual ranking and contraction expansion.
• QWERTY mode with the literal you typed always available as chip 0.
• Custom words, smart phrases (with categorised collapsible sections),
  autocorrect pairs — all editable in the host app, all yours.
• Word Packs (Brands, Cities, Animals, Actors, Artists, National Parks)
  and Phrase Packs (Medicine, Legal) bundled and toggleable.

OCR (Image Recognition)
• Text mode — quick single-line transcription for signs, captions,
  receipts.
• Document mode — paragraph-clustered output.  On iOS 26 the wizard
  upgrades to RecognizeDocumentsRequest; you get structured Markdown
  with headings, ordered/unordered lists, and pipe tables.  Export as
  .md to Files, iCloud Drive, or any document provider.
• Business Card mode — Apple NSDataDetector + NLTagger pull Name /
  Title / Company / Email(s) / Phone(s) / Website(s) / Address(es)
  out of a scanned card.  A touch-friendly mapping step lets you
  re-assign chips before commit.  Save as .vcf, drop into Contacts.app,
  or copy the vCard body to the system pasteboard.

WIDGETS (iOS 26 Liquid Glass)
• Clipboard — recent captures with per-row pin / star / delete buttons,
  source-app badges, and a Capture-pasteboard-now footer.  Small,
  Medium, Large.
• Scan — one tile, three OCR modes, recent-scans list.  Small is a
  tap-to-scan launcher; Medium and Large add three large finger-
  friendly glass buttons.

POWER USERS
• Profiles — duplicate, switch, customise.  Tab order is per-profile.
• Per-tab Siri shortcuts — "Scan this", "Learn new word", "Learn new
  phrase".
• Background OCR — keep typing while a long document transcribes;
  toast confirms when it lands.
• Accessibility-first — Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion, Reduce
  Transparency, Increase Contrast all honoured.

REQUIREMENTS
• iOS 26 or later (older OS support drops with this release for the
  Liquid Glass surface).
• Allow Full Access on the keyboard so it can read the shared
  clipboard.  iSureType has no network entitlement; Full Access is not
  used to send any data anywhere.

SUBSCRIPTION
• iSureType is an auto-renewable annual subscription.
• Length: 1 year. Price: $39.99/year (US; prices vary by storefront), after a
  7-day free trial for new subscribers.
• Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. It renews
  automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end
  of the period. Manage or cancel in iOS Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 0.13.0 — 2026-08-28

Steadier, calmer, better behaved.

- The keyboard sticks around: smarter memory management stops iOS from quietly closing it mid-typing.
- No more random capital letters - words like "may", "zoom", and "nice" stay lowercase mid-sentence unless you mean the name.
- Abbreviations like "e.g." and "Dr." no longer capitalize the word that follows them.
- Once in a rare while, at a natural pause, iSureType may ask how you like it - never on launch, never mid-typing.

### 0.12.1 — 2026-07-15

See our What's New page for more details: https://isuretype.com/whats-new

### 0.9.3 — 2026-05-05

No release notes.
