DXY AI Keyboard DXY AI turns your iPhone keyboard into a smart writing assistant that works right where you type. There's no more copying text into another app or switching back and forth. Whenever you're writing a message, an email, a caption, or a reply, just tap the sparkle key and let AI help you say it better. It fixes your grammar and spelling before you hit send, rewrites a sentence so it reads more clearly, and can shift the tone to sound more professional, friendly, or confident depending on who you're talking to. If a message is too long, it shortens it. If it's too short, it expands on your idea. It can even continue writing where you left off, or turn a quick note into a complete, well written email. Talking to someone in another language is simple too. DXY AI translates your text into 21 languages instantly, inside whatever app you're using. And when you're not sure how to respond, Smart Reply reads the conversation and suggests a natural answer for you. The most flexible tool is Ask AI. You just tell it what you want in plain words, like "reply politely saying no" or "make this sound more exciting," and it writes it for you. As you type, DXY AI also offers fast word suggestions so you spend less time tapping. You can hear any result read aloud with automatic language detection, which is handy for checking translations. Every result can be used, copied, or shared in a single tap, and your recent results are saved in your history so nothing gets lost. Typing feels quick and responsive, and the app quietly picks the fastest AI for each task so simple fixes happen almost instantly. It comes with a full emoji keyboard and both light and dark themes, and it works everywhere, from Messages and WhatsApp to Mail, Notes, and beyond. Your privacy comes first. DXY AI never records or sends the things you type normally. The only text that ever leaves your device is what you deliberately hand to an AI tool, and nothing about your writing is stored or profiled. DXY AI is free to use with daily AI credits. When you need more, you can watch a short ad to top up instantly, with no subscription required. Getting started takes less than a minute. Open DXY AI, go to Settings, then General, then Keyboard, then Keyboards, and add DXY AI. Turn on Allow Full Access so the AI features can work, then tap the sparkle key in any app and start writing smarter.

About

SmartBreakdown

Features
Read full description

SmartBreakdown turns a screenplay into a breakdown your department can work from โ€” prepared on Mac, worked on iPad with scenes, script and notes side by side, checked on iPhone between set-ups. Nothing leaves your device. No account, no cloud, no uploads โ€” even the semantic search runs locally. For unreleased material under NDA, that is not an extra. It is the condition. NEW: MADE FOR IPHONE DUO Unfold iPhone Duo and the scene splits at the fold: the screenplay on the left page, departments, notes and costs on the right โ€” like pages beside a notebook. Fold it between set-ups and your scene is still open. READ THE SCREENPLAY Import a PDF and SmartBreakdown finds the scenes: headings, scene numbers, length in eighths, DAY/NIGHT and INT/EXT. Dialogue stays dialogue and action stays action, so the screenplay reads the way it was written. Scans work too, and any heading the app is unsure of is shown for you to check, not quietly guessed. BREAK IT DOWN YOUR WAY Name your own departments, give them your production's colours and a symbol, and assign them to any scene. Write notes per department โ€” with formatting โ€” attach reference images and videos, and highlight passages in the screenplay itself. Each department sees what concerns it, and nothing else. MARK UP WITH APPLE PENCIL On iPad, draw across the screenplay with Apple Pencil โ€” a highlighter on paper, except that what it leaves behind can be filtered and exported. Double-tap to switch department; write notes by hand with Scribble. COST IT Put an estimate on any note โ€” two phones, a rain bar, three doubles. Totals add up per scene, per department and across any scenes you choose, go into the PDF and Excel exports, and the app always shows what still has no amount. SCRIPT, STORY DAY AND CONTINUITY Every scene carries a running time, a story day and the clock time it plays at. Running times start as estimates from the scene's length and give way to the times you measure. See every scene of story day 2 at a tap, and know what the phone in shot or the watch in costume has to show. A NEW DRAFT KEEPS YOUR WORK Read in a revision without starting over. Departments, notes and markings hang on scene numbers, not on page positions. Coloured stripes in the margin show what each draft changed โ€” blue pages, pink pages, as on paper โ€” and you mark them as reviewed as you go. THE SHOOTING SCHEDULE Import a Movie Magic one-line schedule and the shooting days are linked to their scenes. Open a day to see its scenes in shooting order, with page count, running time, story days and your department's workload. FIND SCENES BY MEANING Search for "phone screen" or "someone gets a message" and find the scenes, even where the screenplay puts it in other words. EXPORT WHAT IS NEEDED, NOTHING MORE PDF and Excel reports filtered by department, scenes, episode or shooting day: the full breakdown, one department, a handful of scenes or a day sheet. Send a production โ€” or one department's work alone โ€” to a colleague as a single file, by AirDrop or any other way, and merge their changes back when it returns. YOUR WORK STAYS YOURS A production is a single file: save it, move it between devices, carry on where you left off. Open, read, print and export it โ€” always, with or without a subscription. TRY IT FREE No screenplay to hand? Open the demo production: a fictional episode with a finished breakdown. 14 days with every feature unlocked, no account required. SMARTBREAKDOWN PRO Auto-renewing subscription: EUR 12.99 per month or EUR 99.99 per year; prices vary by region. A one-off purchase is also available.
