Quick Input Search Bar
The Quick Input Search Bar is the high-frequency entry point for inserting history items and common snippets into the current input field. Older docs or discussions may say “Quick Input” or QuickBar—navigation uses this title.
The Quick Input search bar is available on Android today; Windows/macOS versions are planned. On iOS/iPadOS, use the Quick Input keyboard instead; on Windows/macOS, use the Quick Input window. See the Quick Input overview to pick the right one for your platform.
Best-fit scenarios
- Chat, ticket, and email replies with reusable text.
- Fast insertion without switching away from the current app.
- Combined usage with aliases and pinned clips.
Workflow
Activate the Quick Input service (or tap the Quick Settings Tile in your notification drawer, or tap the screen's Floating Bubble) so the search bar floats over your current app.
Type keywords or pick a recent entry.
Press Enter to insert into the current input field.
