Find and Run an Action Premium
On this page
An Action is a built-in task that Typing Hero runs on the text field you're typing in, such as doing math or changing letter case. You run it by typing its Keyword.
You can't create new Actions, but you can change their Keywords.
Run an Action
- If the text field already has text, type a space after it.
- Type the Action's Keyword, such as
,uu.
Typing Hero removes the Keyword and runs the Action. Actions that open Quick Access or Clipboard keep the Keyword until you choose something.
You can also tap a matching Action in Suggestions, or tap Run in the Actions tab of Quick Access.
Find an Action
The Actions tab lists every Action by category, each with its Keyword.
Tap Search Actions (Search Actions) to find one by name or Keyword.
Open an Action's Example (Example) to see what it does and any limits, such as formatting loss or Undo.
The categories are:
- Number: calculate and format numbers.
- Text: change letter case, accents, and separators.
- WhatsApp: open a chat with a phone number.
- Selection: select text.
- Deletion: delete or clean up text.
- Cursor: move the cursor.
- Clipboard: copy, cut, and paste.
- Android: share text.
- Typing Hero: control Typing Hero itself.
Change an Action's Keyword
- In the Actions tab, find the Action.
- Tap Change Keyword (Change Keyword).
- Enter the new Keyword.
- Tap Change.
Typing Hero shows Keyword changed.
The Keyword must follow the Keyword rules and can't match a Text Snippet or another Action.
