Insert Contact Details Premium

The Contact Placeholder inserts details of a contact you pick each time you use the Text Snippet, such as a courier's phone number.

Add a Contact Placeholder

1. Open the Text Snippet.
2. Tap in the Template where the detail should go.
3. Tap Contact in the row of Placeholder buttons.
4. Choose the detail to insert.
5. Tap Insert.
6. Tap Save (Save).

You can choose:

• The display name
• A phone number or email address by its label, such as mobile or work
• All phone numbers
• All email addresses
• A work or home fax number
• The company, department, or title

To insert multiple details from the same contact, add a Contact Placeholder for each.

Use the Text Snippet

How you pick the contact depends on your Android version.

Android 17 and later

Contact requires the new accessibility service.

1. Type the Keyword.
2. Tap the contact in Android's contact picker.
3. Tap Done.

Typing Hero gets only the contact you pick and doesn't ask to read your contacts.

Android 16 and earlier

1. Type the Keyword.
2. Search for the contact.
3. Tap the contact.
4. Tap Select contact.

Android asks to let Typing Hero read your contacts when you save the Text Snippet. If you don't allow it then, Android asks again when you type the Keyword.

1. Allow it.
2. Delete the Keyword from the text field.
3. Type the Keyword again.

After you pick a contact

Typing Hero reads the contact on your phone and doesn't upload it.

If the contact doesn't have the detail you chose, such as a work email, nothing is inserted for it.
