Type less. Say more. LazyBoard turns the messages you send every day into one-tap keys, right inside your keyboard, in any app. Save replies once, then send them in a single tap: "On my way!", "Thanks for your order", your address, your email signature, support answers, and more. WHY PEOPLE USE LAZYBOARD • Reply 10x faster: insert full sentences, paragraphs and emails with one tap. • Templates that fill in the details: write "Hi {Name}, thanks for your order" once, then type the name and send. • A place for every phrase: organize replies into color-coded folders. • Paste photos & GIFs: save images and GIFs and send them from the keyboard or iMessage. • Clipboard folder: keep copied text and reuse it anytime. • Fast search: find any saved phrase in seconds. • Synced with iCloud: your phrases stay up to date on iPhone, iPad and Mac. PERFECT FOR Customer support, sales, small businesses, recruiters, real estate, delivery and anyone who answers the same questions every day. PRIVACY-FRIENDLY Your phrases work without Full Access. Photos, GIFs and the clipboard need Full Access, which iOS requires for those features. Your data stays on your device and in your iCloud — never shared. Free to start.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: PBoard at free with in-app purchases against LazyBoard's subscription. PBoard also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 72%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16). LazyBoard's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 15 months). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LazyBoard sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and PBoard sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.49 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

LazyBoard holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LazyBoard has 588 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of LazyBoard's written reviews are positive against 100% of PBoard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

LazyBoard ships an update fortnightly, PBoard every 15 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
