    Hi, guys

    I'm looking for an app which can retrieve accidentally lost recent typed text.

    Foe instance: let's say I was typing long chunks of text to post somewhere, but accidentally I ended up reloading or something else horrible s**t happened. I want to retrieve the typed text. it'd be nice if it captures, stores recent typed text in encrypted form.
    Is there any such app?

    Use microsoft word for typing even if you mistakenly close the app, you can still retrieve the text.

    It seems impossible. I managed to recover a few text messages. However, there are already on the phone.

    I found OneNote to be useful for that purpose, as well as for4 typing draft text

    Well, Evernote does it too, but you have to give up writing directly in the browser window first.

    Years back there was a wonderful Firefox add-on (obviously for PC only !) named Lazarus. It was extremely useful since its duty was autosaving everything written DIRECTLY in any browser window. Worked great !
    If I'm not mistaken there was a similar Chrome add-on too.
    Can't remember its name though.

    I wish an app with a functionality of this kind existed for Android !
