Typeless brings snippets, quick replies, clipboard history, and writing roles together in one custom keyboard. In chat, customer support, email, writing, or forms, you can insert saved content or translate, polish, rewrite, summarize, and reply—without constantly switching apps. Give each role its own prompt, model, icon, color, context size, and output mode. Everyday text tasks become buttons on the keyboard. === Snippets === • Tap to insert Save support scripts, quick replies, addresses, links, emails, signatures, account details, and templates. One tap inserts them so you type less. • Color tags Organize by work, support, social, personal, or prompts. Custom names and colors make switching on the keyboard clearer. === Clipboard history === • Reuse what you copied Keep links, paragraphs, and scratch notes in clipboard history for later. • Opt-in capture Automatic clipboard reading is off by default. Turn it on in Settings when you need it. Long-press to preview full text and avoid accidental pastes. === Writing roles === • One role, one job Pin actions like “Translate to English,” “Draft a reply,” “Polish this,” or “Summarize.” Tap when you need them. • Three output modes Preview first, replace the original text, or insert at the cursor. Replace and insert support undo. • Your prompts and context Build templates with {{prompt}} and set how much conversation context each role keeps—useful for multi-turn replies and consistent tone. • Your models Connect common model providers, a compatible custom endpoint, or a local model server. On supported devices you can also use Apple Intelligence. • Flexible results Preview, copy, use a portion, or insert in one tap—especially handy for longer text. === Layout and sync === • Personal layout Adjust columns for snippets, clipboard, and roles, plus keyboard height, font size, top switcher, and bottom keys. • Shared with the main app Edit phrases, tags, roles, and models in the main app; the keyboard uses the same data. • Optional iCloud sync Sync snippets, clipboard, roles, model settings, and keyboard preferences through your private iCloud database across devices. === Good for === • Chat replies with a consistent tone • Support and sales scripts, then tone tweaks • Cross-language messages and email • Writing polish, summaries, expand/shorten • Work replies, status updates, email templates, and signatures • Filling addresses, phones, emails, and account details 【Privacy】 Snippets, clipboard, role settings, and keyboard preferences stay on device by default. iCloud sync is optional. Cloud models only receive text when you run a role and choose that provider. Apple Intelligence uses on-device system models where available.
