iSureType
On-device AI keyboard + OCR
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
The predictive T9 keyboard, reborn for one thumb. On-device suggestions that never send a keystroke anywhere. Try every feature free for 7 days.
iSureType reimagines typing on iOS. A T9 multi-tap engine — backed by
a 370,000-word dictionary and grammar-aware ranking — turns three or
four taps into the word you meant. An on-device OCR wizard powered by
Apple's Vision framework lifts text out of any photo, structures
documents as Markdown, and extracts contact fields from business cards.
Two Liquid Glass home-screen widgets put your most-used surfaces one tap
away.
iSureType is a subscription app: the keyboard, OCR, widgets, and every feature
below require an active iSureType subscription. Try it all free for 7 days, then
$39.99/year (US — pricing varies by region). Cancel anytime.
PRIVACY BY CONSTRUCTION
Every recognition path runs on your iPhone. No photos are uploaded.
No typed text is logged. No third-party model weights are bundled.
iSureType requests no network entitlement. For more details, see:
• https://isuretype.com/privacy
• https://isuretype.com/terms
KEYBOARD
• T9 disambiguation with contextual ranking and contraction expansion.
• QWERTY mode with the literal you typed always available as chip 0.
• Custom words, smart phrases (with categorised collapsible sections),
autocorrect pairs — all editable in the host app, all yours.
• Word Packs (Brands, Cities, Animals, Actors, Artists, National Parks)
and Phrase Packs (Medicine, Legal) bundled and toggleable.
OCR (Image Recognition)
• Text mode — quick single-line transcription for signs, captions,
receipts.
• Document mode — paragraph-clustered output. On iOS 26 the wizard
upgrades to RecognizeDocumentsRequest; you get structured Markdown
with headings, ordered/unordered lists, and pipe tables. Export as
.md to Files, iCloud Drive, or any document provider.
• Business Card mode — Apple NSDataDetector + NLTagger pull Name /
Title / Company / Email(s) / Phone(s) / Website(s) / Address(es)
out of a scanned card. A touch-friendly mapping step lets you
re-assign chips before commit. Save as .vcf, drop into Contacts.app,
or copy the vCard body to the system pasteboard.
WIDGETS (iOS 26 Liquid Glass)
• Clipboard — recent captures with per-row pin / star / delete buttons,
source-app badges, and a Capture-pasteboard-now footer. Small,
Medium, Large.
• Scan — one tile, three OCR modes, recent-scans list. Small is a
tap-to-scan launcher; Medium and Large add three large finger-
friendly glass buttons.
POWER USERS
• Profiles — duplicate, switch, customise. Tab order is per-profile.
• Per-tab Siri shortcuts — "Scan this", "Learn new word", "Learn new
phrase".
• Background OCR — keep typing while a long document transcribes;
toast confirms when it lands.
• Accessibility-first — Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion, Reduce
Transparency, Increase Contrast all honoured.
REQUIREMENTS
• iOS 26 or later (older OS support drops with this release for the
Liquid Glass surface).
• Allow Full Access on the keyboard so it can read the shared
clipboard. iSureType has no network entitlement; Full Access is not
used to send any data anywhere.
SUBSCRIPTION
• iSureType is an auto-renewable annual subscription.
• Length: 1 year. Price: $39.99/year (US; prices vary by storefront), after a
7-day free trial for new subscribers.
• Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. It renews
automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end
of the period. Manage or cancel in iOS Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions.

Ratings & Reviews
Steadier, calmer, better behaved.
- The keyboard sticks around: smarter memory management stops iOS from quietly closing it mid-typing.
- No more random capital letters - words like "may", "zoom", and "nice" stay lowercase mid-sentence unless you mean the name.
- Abbreviations like "e.g." and "Dr." no longer capitalize the word that follows them.
- Once in a rare while, at a natural pause, iSureType may ask how you like it - never on launch, never mid-typing.
