A clearer first draft.
In a few small steps.
Choose your app, check the AI source, and try a short piece of writing. You can set up the optional keyboard after your first useful result.
1. Choose the app for your device.
iPhone & iPad
Use the mobile writing app and optional keyboard extension.
Get the iOS app ↗Check the store listing for device requirements, pricing, and the version currently available in your region.
2. Choose where AI runs.
The available choices depend on your installed app, device, and model. Read the source label before starting a task.
| Source | What you set up | Where generation happens |
|---|---|---|
| Local model | A supported model and any required download or local runtime | On your device. Downloads and optional online features still need a connection. |
| Your own service | A compatible endpoint, API key, and model | At the provider you configure. Its usage charges and data policies apply. |
| TypeAide Cloud | The sign-in or service setup shown in the app | Through TypeAide’s online service. See the app for current access and usage limits. |
If a source is not ready, resolve the status shown in the app before retrying. Never send your API key to support.
3. Try a short writing task.
A SIMPLE PRACTICE SENTENCE
I have been work on this project since three weeks.
- Paste or copy the sentence, then choose Polish.
- Check that the result preserves your meaning. A possible correction is “I’ve been working on this project for three weeks.”
- Copy the result, or refine it if the tone does not fit your context.
AI output can be mistaken. Check facts, amounts, dates, names, and commitments before using a result.
4. Make the workflow your own.
Set a preferred output language, explore a useful shortcut, or save vocabulary you want to learn. On iPhone and iPad, set up the keyboard when you are ready to bring AI actions into other supported apps.
