What it is

Rocket Typist creates and inserts text and image snippets to reduce repeated typing on macOS, iOS, and iPadOS. Snippets can be plain text, formatted text, code, images, or AI-powered Smart Snippets. Users can trigger them with keyboard shortcuts, abbreviations, menu bar search on Mac, or Rocket Typist's keyboard on iPhone and iPad. Macros include clipboard, text, options, date, snippet, cursor, key, and selection types; key macros are Mac-only. Smart Snippets use OpenAI and require an OpenAI account and access key. The free plan includes 10 snippets, with unlimited abbreviation expansions and iCloud sync. The iPhone and iPad Pro plan is $9.99 as a one-time purchase, with no subscription or update fees. The macOS Pro plan is $19.99 a month, with no subscription or update fees. Formatted text and images cannot be automatically inserted on iOS or iPadOS; they are copied to the clipboard for manual insertion. When Smart Snippets are used, snippet text and content inserted through macros are sent to OpenAI for processing.
