Every ETeext update, newest first.

v178· 2026-07-29

  • Fixed Accented words show correctly on Android On Android, a styled word with accents showed up as empty squares while you were writing it — “Densité élevée” looked like “Densit▯▯ ▯▯lev▯▯e”. Your text was never damaged: it left intact and arrived correctly. It was the on-screen preview that failed.
  • Improved Digits follow the style in two more fonts Italic and Gothic Bold now style digits too: “Top 10” becomes “𝘛𝘰𝘱 𝟣𝟢”. Three styles — Italic (Serif), Cursive and Gothic — keep plain digits on purpose: those digits simply do not exist, and borrowing them from another style would make them heavier than their own letters.

v173· 2026-07-25

  • Fixed 18 special letters are styled at last Letters like Ł, Đ, Ø, Ñ, Ş, Ř used to lose their mark when styled: “Łódź” came out as “Lódź”, “MAÑANA” as “MANANA”. They now keep their shape. A handful of letters (ß, æ, œ, þ…) are still left untouched on purpose.
  • Fixed In PRO, clearing the signature really removes it Emptying the signature field used to restore the default one, so the ETeext link came back without you noticing. It now stays empty. Customising or removing the signature is a PRO feature.

v166· 2026-07-22

  • New A way out when your login code will not go through Until now, the screen where you type the code emailed to you offered only one button. Anyone whose code had expired was stuck with no way forward. A Request a new code link now sits on that screen.
  • Improved The error message tells you what to actually do When a code was refused, the app said "Invalid or expired code. Try again." — advice that is wrong half the time: if the code has expired, retyping it cannot work. It now states the problem plainly and gives you both ways out: check what you typed, or ask for a new code.
  • Improved Your text no longer disappears Anything that reloaded the page used to wipe what you were writing: signing in with Google, switching language, updating the app. An automatic save had existed for a long time, but it erased itself on every start. Your text is now really there when you come back.
  • Fixed Character counter: correct wording in Italian, Polish and Dutch Three grammar slips. Italian showed "caract.", a French word. Polish showed "znaków" whatever the number, although the language agrees with the numeral. Dutch showed "1 tekens" from the very first character typed.

v157· 2026-07-22

  • Fixed Your accents and special letters are preserved Turning on Safe Mode after styling could quietly alter your words when you copied: “café à Zurich” came out as “cafe a Zurich”, and “Łódź” became “Lodz”. Fixed — accents and letters like Đ, Ł and Ø are kept. Safe Mode strips the risky decorations, not your spelling, and the result is now identical whether you turn it on before or after styling.
  • New Safe Mode can now clean text you have already written Until now, turning on Safe Mode only affected what you styled next — text already on screen stayed as it was. Now, if your editor holds styled text, ETeext offers to convert it back to normal characters: “Styled text detected — your styled text may display poorly for some recipients. Convert it back to normal characters?” You can accept or keep it as it is, and the ↺ (Undo) button brings it back. The window never appears when cleaning would change nothing. More about Safe Mode
  • Improved The ⓘ tooltip now links to the full answer The tooltip that explains why styled characters count double now offers a “Learn more” link, which opens the matching FAQ entry on the site, in your language.

v152· 2026-07-22

  • Improved Safe Mode now cleans what you copy and export With Safe Mode on, the text leaving ETeext is cleaned on the way out: floating accent marks are removed, so your words don't turn into empty squares (□) in more limited readers — Windows Notepad, older email clients. Your editor is never modified, and with Safe Mode off your copy keeps every bit of its styling. More about Safe Mode
  • New The character counter now explains itself A small ⓘ icon next to the counter (hover on desktop, tap on mobile) explains that styled characters count roughly twice, exactly like on X and other networks. A higher total isn't a bug — it's how those platforms count.
  • Improved A clearer end of trial When your trial ends, ETeext now tells you once — your trial is over, switch to PRO — instead of quietly locking features. Day counts also read correctly in all 13 languages (“1 day” vs “2 days”, including verb agreement in Spanish, Portuguese and Italian, and the Slavic forms in Polish and Russian).

v138· 2026-07-21

  • New Every shared text invites people to try ETeext The signature added under your copied text is now a localized hook followed by a link — eteext.com/go — that opens a “How did I do it?” page. Anyone who sees your styled text can discover ETeext in one tap. It's part of the free plan; PRO lets you customize it or turn it off.
  • Improved Simpler, more reliable sign-in Sign in by email with a 6-digit code instead of clicking a link — more reliable, especially in the installed app on iPhone. “Continue with Google” now lets you pick your account.
  • Improved AI that completes your text without erasing it In Ask AI, a new Add after option (on by default) places the result below your text instead of replacing it. Turn it off to go back to replacing. (PRO)
  • Fixed Smoother language menu on mobile The language selector now scrolls correctly on mobile and reaches every language, with no scrolling spilling onto the page behind.

v128· 2026-07-18

  • Improved A language-quality pass The app's 13 languages have all been reviewed — tone tuned to each language (formal vs. informal), plurals, terminology and labels refined.

v119· 2026-07-18

  • New ETeext PRO is here ETeext now has a real PRO plan — unlock every style and effect, the AI tools, saving and export. $9.99 / 3 months or $30 / year (−25%), with a 21-day free trial on a free account. See pricing.

v107· 2026-07-14

  • New ETeext now speaks 13 languages Four new interface languages: Indonesian, Turkish, Vietnamese and Russian — 13 in all, each with its own pages, the language selector, and installable as an app. On Indonesian, Turkish and Vietnamese text the styling works just like the other Latin-script languages (Turkish keeps its dotless ı unstyled, on purpose). The Russian and Hindi interfaces are fully translated, but the styled-text effect applies to the Latin alphabet only — not to Cyrillic or Devanagari. Open ETeext at app.eteext.com.

v103· 2026-07-14

  • Improved A clearer language selector The language selector has been redesigned across ETeext: each language now shows its native name, the current one is highlighted, and it’s easier to read and use on mobile.

v99· 2026-07-12

  • Improved Your app version in Settings The Settings window now shows the app version you’re running — tap it to copy it (handy for support), and open “What’s new” in one click.

v96· 2026-07-11

  • Fixed API key tooltip on mobile On mobile, the “API key” help tooltip (the “?” in Settings) could run off the edge of the screen — it’s now recentered under the “?” and fully readable, in every language.

v95· 2026-07-11

  • New Share text to ETeext Once ETeext is installed (Android/Chromium), it shows up in your phone’s share sheet — share text from any app straight into ETeext, ready to style. (Not on iOS/iPadOS yet.)
  • New ETeext is online and installable ETeext now runs at app.eteext.com, over HTTPS, installs like an app (home screen / desktop) and works offline.
