Auto Paste Keyboard is a free custom keyboard that types your saved text for you. Keep the sentences you send every day — email, address, phone number, greetings, canned replies — and drop any of them into any app with a single tap, without leaving the app you are in. If you retype the same text again and again, this keyboard gives that time back. Add your templates once in the app, then hold the globe key in any app, switch to Auto Paste Keyboard, and tap the template you need. KEY FEATURES: ‣ Text Templates: Save any text — a short reply or a full paragraph — and reach all of them from your keyboard. No switching apps, no Copy and Paste. ‣ Auto Paste Mode: Hold the Paste key and the keyboard keeps filling your text in for you, again and again, hands free. ‣ Auto Send: In messaging apps like TikTok, Snapchat and more, the keyboard pastes AND sends for you — made for when the same message has to go out over and over. ‣ Stylish Fonts: Turn what you type into cool fonts right inside the keyboard, and use them in any app. ‣ Auto Clicker for Websites: Open a page in the built-in browser and let the app auto tap, auto refresh or auto scroll it for you. Save a setup and reuse it any time. (iOS does not let any app tap inside other apps, so Auto Clicker runs on websites in this browser.) ‣ Works Wherever You Type: Messages, Mail, Safari, TikTok, Instagram, WhatsApp, Telegram, Notes — anywhere the keyboard appears. PRIVACY: Your templates stay on your device. The keyboard needs Full Access only so it can read the templates you saved in the app — it does not collect what you type.

Auto Paste Keyboard's advantage is ratings volume (90K vs 230) and review sentiment (87% vs 77%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
