Completely automatic and seamless. Logs everything from every native Android app. Complete typing history.

Stays out of the way until you need it. Simple to use when you do. Brings global undo to Android.

Safe and private. No unnecessary permissions. Allows you to set a PIN lock on the history list. Automatic deletion of old entries.

Configurable blacklist for apps. Type Machine won't collect what you don't want it to.

Tablet-friendly user interface.

After installation, start Type Machine. Collection must be enabled from the device settings: instructions will be provided. Other accessibility services enabled on your device may interfere with functionality.

Type Machine uses Accessibility Services

Android Accessibility Services are used to collect device wide input history into Type Machine. Type Machine sees what you type in other apps using the Accessibility Service. Accessibility permissions are required to fulfill the core function of the app.

Saved data is stored on your device only and is not shared with anyone. It can be deleted within Type Machine at any time. Enable or disable Type Machine in the system Accessibility Settings to control collection of input history.

Other Permissions

✔ Run at startup for scheduled automatic deletion
✔ Show notifications for locking
✔ Start at device boot

Great app... is a secure app, it doesn't even have the Interne or network access permissions, just the required permission to perform the duty. You can add apps to the ignore list and just keep active monitoring the ones you type a lot.I appreciate an app that is different and not just another clone. This is not a clipboard manager, it can keep this up to 30 days,if you need the content for more than 30 days a Notepad app or clipboard manager will be required. A search option please 😄 great job

Crazy good app. Have you ever been typing an email or a YouTube comment or anything text based, hit some wrong key and it all disappears somehow. You don't want to type it all over again. Frustrating. This app, with the required permissions, saves all your typed text in a nice list sorted by time, or app. It has literally saved me from so much frustration over the years. Don't expect a ton of updates & new features because it doesn't need them. It does exactly what's on the tin & that's perfect.

FANTASTIC! Some other reviews said it didn't work, but I'm 100% thrilled! Android 10 restricted their stock clipboard so it won't save multiples anymore. I've tried countless 3rd party clip apps to no avail. This solved it! Auto launches at startup, allows you to blacklist apps you don't want monitored so you're not left with text clutter, no need to even hit "copy." This does all the work, totally no fuss. Just make sure to grant all required permissions at install. Most useful app EVER! 💪❤
