Convert Chinese text on iPhone and iPad, and add script conversion to your own Shortcuts workflows. OpenCCman brings local text conversion, TXT files and a native source/result workspace together. Choose Simplified Chinese, OpenCC Traditional, Taiwan Standard with Taiwan idioms, or Hong Kong Traditional. Advanced character-variant and regional wording options remain available. Simplified output is not a complete reverse conversion of Taiwan-specific vocabulary. Start with a blank draft, paste your text, or fill in an example when you need one. Compare source and result side by side or stacked on iPad. The compact iPhone Convert button leaves more room for reading. Clear Source asks before removing the current source and result. On iOS and iPadOS 16 or later, the free Convert Chinese Text action accepts text and one of four presets, then returns the result to the next Shortcuts action. Connect it to clipboard or file actions without changing an open draft. It does not use the homepage daily allowance; text input is limited to 10 MiB in UTF-8. Import or drop one UTF-8 TXT file up to 10 MiB, including files with a BOM. Copy or share the result, or export the latest successful conversion as UTF-8 TXT without a BOM. Line endings, blank lines and Unicode text are preserved. Save Big5 or GBK files as UTF-8 first. Batch files and files over 10 MiB are not supported on iPhone or iPad, including with Pro. Free users can complete 12 successful homepage conversions per day. Importing, exporting and changing presets do not count. Lifetime Pro is a one-time purchase that removes the homepage limit and in-app recommendations. View purchase status or restore purchases in Settings. Powered by OpenCC, text conversion runs locally on your device. OpenCCman requires iOS or iPadOS 15 or later. Open source under the MIT license: https://github.com/gewill/OpenCCman
