Pinlet vs SweetKeyboard Pro

Keep what matters right where you can see it. Pinlet turns a short piece of text into a Live Activity, so it can stay visible on Dynamic Island and your Lock Screen while you move through your day. Add a deadline, a pickup code, a short intention, or anything else you do not want to lose in a list. PULL TEXT FROM ANY SCREENSHOT Circle any part of a screenshot or photo and Pinlet reads the text for you. Fine-tune the result word by word or character by character, then pin exactly what you need — no retyping. WRITE AND PIN Enter up to 120 characters and pin them in one tap. Update the text whenever the important thing changes, or unpin it when you are done. STAY VISIBLE On supported iPhone models, pinned text appears on Dynamic Island. It also appears as a Live Activity on the Lock Screen. iOS controls Live Activity availability and may end an activity according to system policy. START FROM ANYWHERE Long-press the Pinlet icon for Quick Input, or use Shortcuts to pin text, unpin, or open a screenshot in Pinlet from anywhere on your phone. RETURN TO WHAT MATTERED Pinlet keeps a history of successfully pinned text. Mark useful entries as favorites, reuse them as a new draft, delete individual entries, or automatically clean up older nonfavorite history. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your content and any text recognition happen on your iPhone by default. Pinlet has no account system, advertising, third-party analytics, or custom server. OPTIONAL ICLOUD SYNC If you choose to enable iCloud sync, your history, favorites, and recent activity times are stored in your private CloudKit database and synced to devices using the same Apple Account. iCloud sync is off by default. Requires iOS 17 or later. Pinlet is designed for iPhone.

SweetKeyboard: Fast, Familiar, and Private Typing SweetKeyboard is a local-first iOS keyboard that keeps numbers, symbols, cursor movement, and reusable clipboard snippets close to the typing flow without forcing users to learn an unfamiliar layout. Built for quick edits, codes, forms, and repeated snippets, it delivers a familiar typing experience with smarter everyday controls. EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN ONE PLACE • Numbers Stay Visible: The familiar English QWERTY letter layout features a permanent top number row from 1 to 0, reducing interruptions while you type codes, dates, and addresses. • Symbols in One Place: Symbols are grouped on one clean page, designed to avoid deep symbol switching. Tap one symbol and return to letters, or lock symbols when you need to type multiple characters or emojis. • Smarter Cursor Control: Move the cursor without fighting the iOS text magnifier using dedicated arrow keys or speed-aware horizontal swiping across the keyboard. • Context-Aware Typing: SweetKeyboard adapts to the field you are typing in. For example, the keyboard shows a contextual @ shortcut in email fields and suppresses unwanted auto-capitalization. • Long-Press Shortcuts: Hold supported keys for common accents and quick punctuation, keeping the main keyboard free of visual clutter. • Fast Typing Stability: Designed for stable everyday typing, even when you move quickly and your fingers overlap. • Forward Delete: Turn on forward delete, then use manual Shift to delete ahead of the cursor. • Save and Reuse Snippets: Access a local clipboard grid inside the keyboard to save up to 50 local text snippets. • Pin Favorites: Pin favorites so important snippets stay at the top of your list for quick, one-tap pasting. • Native Clipboard Integration: Choose how SweetKeyboard handles text copied to the native iPhone Clipboard. You can import, paste, or do both after initiating a user action. • Clear Text Field: Easily clear short fields directly from the compact keyboard toolbar. CUSTOMIZABLE TO YOUR PREFERENCES Your typing experience should fit your needs. Easily configure settings in the app, including optional haptic feedback for responsive keys, auto-capitalization rules, cursor swipe behaviors, and custom clipboard toolbar options. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT, LOCAL BY DESIGN Privacy is a central product value, not a secondary note. • There are no analytics, no advertising SDKs, no tracking SDKs, and no cloud sync. • SweetKeyboard features no remote text processing or keystroke uploading. A NOTE ON CLIPBOARD FEATURES AND "FULL ACCESS" To enable the optional clipboard features, iOS requires you to grant "Full Access". This simply gives the keyboard the necessary permissions to interact with the phone's native clipboard tools and shared local settings. This does not mean we have access to your data. Because SweetKeyboard is local by design with no cloud sync or remote processing, your typing, snippets, and clipboard history remain completely local to your device and are never compromised. Platform Limitations: Some features depend on what the active app exposes to third-party keyboards. Secure text fields and certain apps may use the system keyboard instead. Clear Text Field works best in short fields and may be limited in long documents.
