AI reply fix

iOS Share Extension context handoff fix

To fix iOS Share Extension context handoff, treat context capture and draft placement as separate jobs. The Share Extension should pass visible source context into TypeToSell; keyboard insertion or copy fallback should place the selected editable draft back into the destination app. iOS should follow mobile web and Android learning because this paired flow is more complex than a simple mobile web share/copy MVP.

Symptom

What this failure looks like

An iPhone user wants an AI reply, but the workflow cannot reliably move the source post context into the draft surface and the selected draft back into the app.

Diagnosis

Why the workflow breaks

Keyboard-only thinking

The plan assumes an iOS keyboard can solve source context capture by itself.

Copy fallback is hidden

The flow does not keep selected copy as a valid completion path when insertion is constrained.

Storage boundaries are unclear

The handoff does not define what source text, generated drafts, or shared data can be persisted.

App Store status is overstated

Roadmap language sounds like current App Store availability without proof.

Fix steps

How to repair it

Split the jobs

Use Share Extension for source context handoff and keyboard or copy fallback for selected draft placement.

Keep selected copy first-class

Do not treat copy fallback as failure when iOS app behavior limits insertion.

Define storage boundaries

Avoid persisting raw posts, private messages, or generated replies longer than the workflow needs.

Validate iPhone demand first

Use mobile web metrics before investing in paired iOS native surfaces.

Prevention

How to keep it from coming back

Keep visible context explicit

Do not let the model guess from a keyword. Use the actual visible post, comment, or thread context before asking for a draft.

Ask for three reply angles

Request trust, conversation, and natural next-step options so the user can choose the safest draft instead of accepting one generic answer.

Remove unsupported proof

Delete invented statistics, testimonials, links, pricing, customer outcomes, store availability, or platform approval claims before posting.

Keep final posting manual

TypeToSell should draft, copy, or insert selected editable text only. The user still presses Reply, Post, or Comment manually.

Mobile roadmap impact

How this fix affects mobile web, Android, iOS, and browser extensions

Mobile web + share/copy first

Use mobile web to prove the fix quickly because it tests context input, selected draft copy, return-to-app behavior, and manual posting without native complexity.

Android ReplyPilot Keyboard second

Move the fix into Android keyboard only after Android users already select useful drafts and the remaining problem is insertion friction.

iOS keyboard + Share Extension third

Use iOS Share Extension when the problem is source context handoff, and use keyboard or copy fallback for selected draft placement.

Safari iOS and Firefox Android later

Treat mobile browser extensions as browser-session fixes, not proof that native X, Reddit, or Facebook app composers are solved.

FAQ

Fix questions

Why does iOS need Share Extension for AI replies?

The Share Extension can pass visible source context, while keyboard or copy fallback handles selected draft placement.

Should iOS keyboard be built before Android keyboard?

Usually no. Android is a cleaner native insertion test after mobile web validation.

Is the iOS native path live?

No. This page is roadmap planning and should not be treated as current App Store availability.
