A reply that's too long. A sentence that sounds off. WriteForge puts AI writing tools in a keyboard, so you can edit without moving your draft into a separate chat app. Type with your usual keyboard. Select or copy the words you want to work on, hold the globe key, and switch to WriteForge. Then choose an action. - Fix grammar and spelling. - Rephrase a sentence or clean up a rough draft. - Trim, summarize, or expand your writing. - Save your own instructions for edits you make often. - Reorder your actions and hide the ones you don't use. Your action settings and reusable snippets sync through your personal iCloud account. You can also insert a date, time, or saved snippet without running AI.
