Segment iPhone usage
Separate iPhone mobile web generation, selected copy, repeat sessions, and iOS-specific friction from total mobile usage.
Validation plan
iOS keyboard + Share Extension validation plan
An iOS keyboard plus Share Extension validation plan should prove iPhone demand and two complementary jobs: the Share Extension passes visible source context into TypeToSell, while the keyboard or copy fallback places the selected editable draft. The plan should validate iPhone repeat sessions, context handoff, selected placement, storage minimization, copy fallback, and manual final posting. It should not imply current App Store availability.
Last updated: July 11, 2026. These are roadmap validation plans, not customer outcome claims.
Validation purpose
What this plan should prove
Use this plan before scoping iOS native work. iOS validation should prove both source-context handoff and selected draft placement instead of treating a keyboard alone as the whole workflow.
Validation steps
How to validate the workflow
Validate Share Extension context
Test whether shared visible source post context is enough for specific, useful, platform-aware drafts.
Validate selected placement
Test keyboard insertion and selected copy fallback as two ways to place the chosen editable draft.
Review shared storage
Confirm raw posts, generated replies, private messages, and profile URLs are not persisted unnecessarily.
Confirm manual posting
Ensure users understand TypeToSell prepares selected text while they still publish manually in the destination app.
Success signals
What should prove readiness?
iPhone repeat use exists
iPhone users return to mobile web often enough to justify native iOS planning.
Context handoff succeeds
The Share Extension provides enough visible source context to create specific drafts.
Placement fallback works
Selected copy or keyboard insertion can place editable text without relying on automatic publishing.
Storage boundaries pass
Shared state avoids persistent raw social content and keeps sensitive context minimized.
Decision gates
When should the roadmap move forward?
Build paired surfaces
Move forward when both context handoff and selected placement problems are visible.
Delay keyboard-only scope
If the blocker is context, Share Extension or share/copy work should lead.
Delay on storage uncertainty
Pause iOS native planning until shared storage boundaries are explicit and reviewed.
Keep App Store copy honest
Do not imply current App Store availability until a shipped iOS surface is verified.
Risk controls
Keep validation honest
Do not validate hype
A validation page should prove workflow readiness, not customer outcome claims, revenue lift, reply-rate guarantees, rankings, ratings, reviews, or platform partnership.
Keep roadmap status clear
Android keyboard, iOS keyboard, Share Extension, Safari iOS extension, and Firefox Android extension validation should stay in roadmap language until shipped proof exists.
Preserve manual final posting
Every validation plan should keep generated drafts editable, selected by the user, and published only when the user presses the final social platform button.

FAQ
Validation questions
Why validate iOS keyboard and Share Extension together?
Because the Share Extension helps source context and the keyboard or copy fallback helps selected draft placement.
What should block iOS validation?
Weak context handoff, unclear storage boundaries, no copy fallback, unsupported App Store claims, or auto-posting implications should block it.
Is the iOS native path live?
This validation plan is roadmap planning and should not be treated as current App Store availability.
