Rocket Typist 4+

[update - don’t use with setapp sync mac + iphone] Please fix iOS PRO login - So g

(update). setapp creates bugs. if you want to use this i highly recommend deleting setapp and just using both versions natively.

i love this app that’s why I’m giving it 1 star. Once it gets fixed I will update it.

It’s well done but it’s full of BUGS. Currently as a pro user I can’t login - frustrating. I have confirmed I can login with to iCloud it just fine.

This app works brilliantly at first my but my experience so far has been full of bugs

1. Syncing with setapp doesn’t work (but they don’t mention it)

I spent forever trying to fix this, even going so far to dig for where my snippets are stored because THEY KEPT GETTING LOST during the Mac/iphone sync

2. Ok so then I buy BOTH the Mac/iPhone version

Synced gets fixed. Yay.

2 days later, somehow I’m logged out of iPhone app. Can’t add any more snippets and it says I need to buy the pro version. Yet when I try to login to restore version it just silently errors. So now I can’t add more snippets. How am I logged out the iPhone app when in my settings I’m clearly logged in.

So many silent bugs. Please fix this (I can’t login on iPhone app(even tho I bought it)and can’t add my snippets.

Developer Response ,

Hi,

Thanks for your detailed report. It sounds like you’re using Setapp to activate the Pro version, is that correct? If you’re not using Setapp, no login is required. Could you confirm if you’re using Setapp on both your iPhone and Mac? It seems like this issue may be related to Setapp’s syncing, not Rocket Typist.

Please reach out to me directly at support@witt-software.com, and I’ll be happy to look into this further and make sure everything is working smoothly for you. :)

Thanks for your patience,
Daniel

One suggestion is to have a Paste style board that is more visual about what snippets I have (helpful especially when I don’t have many snippets), rather than having to recall and type, and the same goes for its iOS version. I wish the developer every success, especially in this world where an alarm clock wants your subscription.

Gets the job done but cumbersome to change snippet

A few things that are unintuitive
1. have to add the app yourself to list of authorized items in security settings (other apps do this automatically)
2. very slow and difficult to change snippets. I wish it was just a cell to enter and change, but you have to click 2 times and in a space you cannot really tell if there is no abbreviation present. They should have a forum to share problems and improve the UI.
