It would be nice if there was a function that could automatically recover the text. By the way，It hasn't been updated for too long.

Found this after Typio was abandonded by it's developers. Works great and does almost exactly what i wanted it to do. Nice job! Highly recommend to anyone who has had to fill out a text box twice because of a load or sending error. Just wish they made a version to work on my phone too!

Coming from Typio (which has been abandoned by developer), this app works fine enough. It's not as fully featured as Typio (i.e. like right click option, etc), but it'll do. Nothing worse than losing your typing when the page crashes! BTW, for set-in stone Typio users, read the hack that can get it working again. I don't have the patience for that, so this app is good enough for the moment.
