编辑“How to Add Custom Text Shortcuts to Android”



Adding custom text shortcuts to your Android device can save you a lot of time and effort when typing messages or emails. Instead of typing out long words or phrases repeatedly, you can create a shortcut that will automatically insert the desired text with just a few keystrokes. Here's how to add custom text shortcuts to Android:

1. Open the Settings app on your Android device.
2. Tap on "System" (may be listed as "General Management" or "Device" depending on your Android version).
3. Tap on "Languages & input" (may be listed as "Language & keyboard" or similar).
4. Tap on "Virtual keyboard" (may be listed as "On-screen keyboard").
5. Select your keyboard app (e.g. Gboard, Samsung Keyboard, SwiftKey, etc.).
6. Tap on "Text correction" (may be listed as "Text shortcuts" or similar).
7. Tap on "Add" or the plus (+) icon.
8. In the "Shortcut" field, type the text you want to replace with a shortcut.
9. In the "Phrase" field, type the text you want to appear when you type the shortcut.
10. Tap "Save" to create the shortcut.

Now, whenever you type the shortcut you created, the corresponding phrase will appear automatically. You can create as many custom text shortcuts as you need, and edit or delete them at any time by returning to the "Text correction" or "Text shortcuts" section in your keyboard settings.

Note: Depending on your keyboard app, the exact steps to create custom text shortcuts may differ slightly. However, the basic process should be similar across most Android devices and keyboard apps.
