A little sailboat for your words

Let your words land where you need them.

A visual how-to

One short task.
Three clear steps.

Here’s an example of adding a task to a list. The walkthrough is a website demo; Floater Typist itself types into the window you choose.

Choose an open window from Floater Typist’s list.

Things to do

Example only. Floater Typist has no special connection to a task app.

A small, considered tool

Useful controls.
Nothing watching.

Floater Typist stays focused on the text you prepare and the destination you choose.

Read the user guide
Text lives in memory
Your text and recent items stay in the current session, then clear when the app closes.
01
Clipboard, only by choice
Floater Typist does not monitor the clipboard. Text enters History only when you choose Add clipboard.
02
Focus stays yours
Typing stops if the destination closes or focus moves to another app. You can also press Stop.
03

Your session, yours

Quiet by design.

Text stays in memory while Floater Typist is open. The app does not monitor the clipboard, and it clears session text when you close it.

  • No clipboard monitoring
  • History clears on close
  • No administrator access
