Email Templates Keyboard for iPhone

WordBoard is an email templates keyboard for iPhone that stores your most-used email replies and lets you insert them in one tap from any mail app. Stop retyping the same follow-ups, replies, and sign-offs — save them once and send them instantly.

It works in Mail, Gmail, Outlook, Spark, and any other email app where the iPhone keyboard appears.

Quick answer

To use email templates on iPhone, install WordBoard, save your best replies as keys, and tap them from the keyboard in any email app to insert the full template instantly.

What email templates to save

How to set up email templates on your iPhone keyboard

  1. Create a key for each email template

    Open WordBoard, tap +, and paste your email template. Give it a short label — "Follow-up", "Intro", "Sign-off" — so you can find it on the keyboard.

  2. Organise templates into folders

    Group email templates by type or purpose — Sales, Support, Scheduling, Personal — so the right one is always fast to find.

  3. Insert in any email app with one tap

    Open your email app, switch to WordBoard, and tap the template key. The full email body appears at your cursor, ready to review and send.

Dynamic email templates

WordBoard email templates can include variables that update automatically at insert time. Use {{ DATE }} to add today's date to a follow-up, or {{ CLIPBOARD }} to pull in a name or reference number you just copied. Your templates stay current without editing them before each send.

Better than iOS Text Replacement for email

iOS Text Replacement uses typed abbreviations to expand short snippets. WordBoard gives you visible, labelled keys you tap — better for longer email templates where you want to see the full template name rather than remember a shortcut code.
