You don't need to type faster. You need to stop typing the same things over and over. FastBoard — a keyboard built to end repetitive typing. You have a handful of phrases you type ten times a day. Email replies, team chat messages, e-commerce customer service, sales quotes... every time from scratch, every time word for word identical. Now, save those phrases in FastBoard. Tap once, paste, done. Works in any app. No abbreviations to memorize, no commands to learn. Sounds simple, but the details are where it gets good: ■ Phrase Titles — Keep Only What Matters on the Keyboard Give frequent phrases a short name so they are easier to recognize on the keyboard. Forgot the content? Long-press for a full preview. Need finer edits? Open the Phrase Card to tidy it up. ■ Dynamic Phrases — Text That Updates Itself Set it up once. The moment you paste, it converts automatically. No more editing dates and greetings by hand every morning. Paste in the morning and it says "Good morning." Paste in the afternoon and it switches to "Good afternoon" on its own. You can also preview the actual output while editing, without switching back to the keyboard to test. 20 built-in variables, inserted with one tap: - {{greeting}} switches between morning, afternoon, and evening greetings based on time of day - {{clipboard}} pulls in whatever you just copied — tracking numbers, order IDs - {{coordinates}} adds your current latitude and longitude for quick location sharing - {{cursor}} sets exactly where your cursor lands after pasting - {{enter}} auto-sends after pasting - Date, time, day of week, tomorrow, yesterday... Built-in variables not enough? Create your own. Define your {{myname}}, {{company}}, {{signature}} — set them once, use them everywhere. Supports random rotation and nested combinations. Sales, customer support, e-commerce sellers, social media managers — anyone can build their own input workflow with FastBoard. ■ Phrase Move — Bring Scattered Reusable Texts In All at Once Notes, chat history, support systems, old devices... it does not matter where your reusable phrases are scattered. - Bulk import: paste multiple lines at once, and FastBoard automatically splits them into separate phrases - Clipboard quick save: save the content you just copied into a collection directly from the keyboard ■ Unlimited Collections — Organized, Found in a Second One collection for support replies, one for quotes, one for daily use, one for personal. Categorize your phrases with no limits. Pair them with 16 Morandi color themes to find exactly the phrase you need at a glance. ■ iCloud Sync — Switch Devices Without Starting Over Phrases you created on your iPhone are instantly available on your iPad. Edit on multiple devices at the same time without overwriting each other. Your personal phrase library follows your Apple ID. ■ Privacy First — Your Data Belongs to You Installing a third-party keyboard raises privacy concerns. That's completely fair. All phrases are stored only on your device and in your private iCloud — never uploaded to third-party servers. This is a one-person indie keyboard. No investors, no ads, no tracking. 4.9 stars on the App Store. Over 1,800 real ratings. 13 languages supported. [ Free to Start ] Includes 2 collections, 5 phrases each, plus basic date, time, and current-coordinate dynamic phrases. [ Pro — Buy Once, Own It Forever ] No subscription. No monthly fee. No annual fee. No auto-renewal. Full access: - Unlimited collections and phrases - All 20 built-in + custom dynamic phrases - iCloud sync across devices - 16 color themes - Ongoing updates Questions or suggestions?
