A Text Snippet Cannot Be Saved
On this page
Save is dimmed
Save (Save) becomes available when all of these are true:
- The Keyword has 2 to 100 characters.
- At least one Template contains text.
- If you're editing a Text Snippet, you changed something.
- You aren't reordering Templates. Tap Finish reordering first.
- Any Commands are in allowed positions. See A Command is in the wrong place.
This Keyword is already in use
Another Text Snippet or an Action uses the Keyword. Letter case doesn't matter, so ,THX clashes with ,thx.
Choose another Keyword. To use the Keyword here, change it on the other Text Snippet or Action first.
Upgrade to Premium to create more than 20 Text Snippets
The free version lets you create up to 20 Text Snippets. Delete a Text Snippet you no longer need, or get Premium.
A Command is in the wrong place
Keyboard Action, Send, and Send and Back must come after text. Keyboard Action and Send and Back must also be at the end of the Template, and only one of them can be there. The Text Snippet Editor shows which Command to move.
See Run Commands from a Template.
Text Snippet References form a loop
A Text Snippet Reference inserts a Template from another Text Snippet. If that Text Snippet refers back, directly or through others, the Template would never end.
Remove the Reference that leads back to an earlier Text Snippet, then save.
Could not finish saving the Text Snippet
Something stopped the save. Check that your phone has free storage, then tap Save (Save) again.
If it keeps failing, send me app logs, and I'll look into it.
