Give your thumbs a break.

If you’ve ever been in the middle of a text-ersation and thought, “If only there was an easier way to chat with my BFF,” we may have found the perfect app for you. Most iPhone users who rely on texting as their correspondence of choice are plenty happy with Apple’s iChat-like app and predictive keyboard, but for those instances where simple SMS just isn’t simple enough, Quicky’s unlimited library of user-defined, fully editable templates have got you covered.

So instead of shift-locking and putting your iPhone’s predictive typing to the test the next time you need to text sweet nothings, Quicky can whisk “@}->->---” or “ILUVUMED” (I love you more each day) to your sweetie and save you a seconds and the embarrassment of sending “ILUVULED” by mistake.

The bottom line. Quicky couldn’t be easier to use. Launching the app instantly puts your saved messages at your fingertips, and texts are properly cataloged among Apple’s SMS threads as they are sent. It’s not exactly an app we can’t live without, but we could definitely see Apple co-opting the feature for iPhone 5.
