About Typeback
Ever lost a long message because a tab crashed, a session expired or a form failed to submit? Typeback quietly keeps what you type, so you can get it back with one click.
HOW IT WORKS
• Type anywhere: comments, emails, chat boxes, AI prompts, forms.
• If the text is lost, click back into the empty field. A small "Restore" tag appears. Click it and your text is back.
• Open the Typeback popup to search everything you typed, see older versions and copy them.
• Shortcut: Alt+Shift+Z restores the latest text for the field you are in.
NEVER SAVED
• Password, credit card, CVC, one-time code and similar fields
• Payment pages like PayPal, Google Pay and Stripe checkout
• Any site you add to the ignore list or pause from the toolbar
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Everything stays in your browser's local storage.
• No server, no account, no sync, no analytics, no network requests.
• Export or delete everything whenever you like.
FEATURES
• Works with rich editors such as Gmail, Discord, ChatGPT, Notion and GitHub
• Version history per field
• Keep text for 1 day up to forever
• Light and dark theme
• 28 languages
Note: Google Docs draws text on a canvas, so it is not supported.
