TypeIt4Me Touch vs SnipTray

TypeIt4Me Touch is a simple notepad app with built-in text expansion for swiftly composing notes and messages. Define your own custom shorthand abbreviations and they’ll instantly be replaced as you type with the longer texts they represent, saving you time and effort. Create and store snippet abbreviations on your iPhone or iPad and gradually build up your own custom shorthand library for quickly jotting things down. Store as many notes as you like to use and reuse later. These can be emailed, messaged and shared straight from within the app, or copied to the clipboard in a couple of taps. Install the bundled TypeIt4Me Touch keyboard extension and quickly bring it up in any app to access long snippets of frequently used text. Addresses, email signatures and boilerplate paragraphs stored locally or in iCloud will always be right at your fingertips. Use them in Mail, Safari, Messages or anywhere else you can type. (NB: the keyboard extension is for on-screen typing only. Bluetooth hardware support is limited to composing notes in the app itself.) Ever wished you could use your Mac TypeIt4Me abbreviations in iOS? This is the app for you. If you use TypeIt4Me 6 (or TypeIt4Me 5.4.x from the Mac App Store) and you keep your abbreviations in iCloud, you can use them on your iPhone and iPad. They will be available in the TypeIt4Me Touch app and keyboard as long as you’re signed in to iCloud. You can also add new snippets and sync them across all your Macs and iDevices. If you’re still using TypeIt4Me 5.5.3 (or earlier versions for Mac) downloaded directly from the Ettore Software website, automatic iCloud syncing of your abbreviations between Mac and iOS is not available. However, you can still use snippets created on your Mac. Just email your Mac TypeIt4Me snippet set files to yourself and open the attachments in TypeIt4Me Touch on your iPhone or iPad to import your abbreviations. With TypeIt4Me Touch installed on your iPhone or iPad, greetings, common phrases, boilerplate texts, URLs or even large chunks of programming code can all be just a couple of prods away. Enjoy :)

SnipTray is a powerful clipboard manager for Mac and iPhone that remembers everything you copy — text, links, images, and files — so you never lose a clip again. CLIPBOARD HISTORY Every time you copy something, SnipTray saves it. Press ⌘⇧V (customizable) to open a beautiful horizontal overlay at the bottom of your screen, browse your history as visual cards, and paste any item instantly. Search by text, filter by type, and organize clips into color-coded categories. CROSS-DEVICE SYNC (SnipTray Pro) Copy a URL on your Mac, paste it on your iPhone. SnipTray syncs your text and link clips across all your devices via iCloud with end-to-end encryption — Apple can't read your data, and neither can we. Password manager clips (1Password, Bitwarden, etc.) are automatically excluded from sync. SNIPPETS Create reusable text templates — email signatures, code blocks, boilerplate replies — and paste them anytime from the Snippets tab in the overlay. TEXT TRANSFORMS Right-click any text clip to transform it: UPPERCASE, lowercase, Title Case, trim whitespace, URL encode/decode, Base64 encode/decode, JSON pretty print, HTML escape, and more. CATEGORIES & COLORS Organize your clips into named, color-coded categories. Right-click a category tab to rename it or change its color. Drag clips between categories to keep your workflow organized. SMART DEDUPLICATION Copy the same text twice? SnipTray recognizes it and bubbles the existing clip to the top instead of creating a duplicate. Your history stays clean automatically.
