About SwiftSlate
SwiftSlate is a system-wide AI text assistant for Android. Type a trigger like "?fix" at the end of any text, in any app, and watch it get replaced instantly. It works in most apps — WhatsApp, Gmail, Twitter/X, Messages, Notes, and more. No copy-pasting. No app switching. Just type and go. Features: • Works system-wide via Android's Accessibility Service • Also works from the text-selection menu in any app — no accessibility permission required • Instant inline text replacement — AI response replaces your text directly • Multi-provider AI: Google Gemini, Groq, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (including local LLMs like Ollama and LM Studio) • Text replacer commands run entirely offline…
Privacy and F-Droid
