Whether it’s texting, dating, business, or just regular daily communication, we tend to repeat ourselves quite often. With Ditto, save your most commonly used texts, phrases, and templates, and access them easily from any app! Stop wasting time, and start saying things in a snap! DISCLAIMER: For the app’s full features to work, you must “Allow Full Access” in your device’s keyboard settings. Nothing that you say or save leaves your phone, everything is saved privately on your device or synced via iCloud securely.
