User Reviews
Pros

- Handles large blocks of text well and is more useful than similar apps.
- Responsive developer with quick, helpful updates.
- Works well in Google Keep and Google Docs, making it reliable across nonstandard text fields.
- Very convenient to use and well-built.
Cons
- Expensive subscription; perceived low value for occasional users and confusing pricing structure.
- Cannot remove the translucent floating icon; intrusive on-screen UI.
- Requires full accessibility service and has reboot/persistence issues on some devices.
- Inconsistent app compatibility; not working in certain apps (e.g., Reddit on Samsung Internet) and other Android versions.
- Some bugs/limitations (e.g., delete selection not working; lacks built-in privacy protections like password/PIN).
Recent reviews
Used the app for YEARS and loved it. But app recently moved to subscription based, so I decided to uninstall. If you're willing to pay, highly recommend, I just can't do it. I understand revenue, but I not something I'm willing to pay for

From the last two updates, the app fails to swap any and all text, no replacements are working, in ANY app. All the Battery and Background processes settings are correct, I tried switching Monitoring in your app off and back on, it's not working. Clearing cache or resetting the phone also doesn't work. Nubia Z70S Ultra with Android 16 here.
