Q: What if a user wants to back up all their data using Typed?
I've already sent a support email but haven't received a response yet. You anounced the app is shutting down in December this year as you've been informed by in-app messages.So how can users keep all their data safe?
Initially, the app announced this news, but after reconsidering, they decided to keep it, so you don't have to worry about migrating your data - instead, they said it might delay future updates.
It’s possible they have shifted their focus to new initiatives and are no longer available to develop the existing project.
The app initially planned to shut down but will keep its current features, so you maybe don't need to worry about data migration. However, this might delay future updates as they may focus on new projects. Anyway I intend to use the app less now. My data is backed up to Google Drive, but I'm manually backing up important images and videos since they're not included.
Q: Is this product basically no longer active?
I can't seem to find any means to reach out to support and there hasn't been any update on the roadmap since 2022.
Q: Hi, I have seen many other people sharing serious and justified privacy concerns that they no longer own the ...
google doc
and you answered that in Q4 you will allow users to store in their own google drive as an alternative to typed
If I store in my own google drive will this mean a total 2 way sync between my drive and typed i.e. if I update in typed then the doc in my google drive will update?
A: Hi 13schishti! Yes one tier purchase is synced to one space within Typed, you can certainly go ahead and purchase another tier to obtain another space :) But hurry - our Appsumo deal ends today! Hope you enjoy using Typed :) Best wishes, Alice
Q: I'm testing Typed and a few minutes after creating the account the service asked me for full read and write ...
access to all my Google Drive files. Since the files are currently stored in Typed, I understand that this access to my GDrive files is not necessary, right? Do I need to allow access to some feature?
Q: Hi Brian,
I purchased because you said you would provide a way of logging in and using Typed without a google account.
I want nothing to do with Google so I've been waiting to redeem until it's possible to do so without a gmail account - could you pleaes tell me if this is possible yet?
A: Hi 5dd71b516a1e42e6940efc7c5450b09b Thank you for your reply and we're sorry that we're not able to accommodate for you yet - we are still only partnered with Google for user account login however that will soon change as we are working on other platform integrations. The rough timeline is next year, so watch this space! Thank you for your attention so far,
A: Hi Steven408! As an official partner of Google, we are providing unlimited storage for Google Drive to store your Google docs, sheets and slides. However the storage space for these plans are in relation to the references and resources you store within Typed i.e. PDFs, images, links etc :) Hope that makes sense! Best wishes, Alice
A: Absolutely - you can book an onboarding call here where our team will take you through the product live! https://calendly.com/business-canvas/typed-onboarding-en?month=2022-09
As an official partner of Google, we worked together to build an automated bot (Typed Bot) to manage the storage of your Google Drive. We wanted to provide our users with unlimited storage space; hence we went with this option.
By Q4, we will give users the option to choose their own drive or Typed Drive!
A: Hi Jaraca! Thank you for your question - yes we will be adding extensions real soon with the launch of our Typed Editor in early October, all extensions will work! Also we already have a mobile app which has just been updated this week allowing you access to Typed and it's docs on your mobile! Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.typed.application iOS https://apps.apple.com/app/typed-save-and-collect-urls/id1606667024?fbclid=IwAR0OOGIZf6edKtzQ6a1dKIpqZ2_sGq_ePKzpngbrwJ870M7Ds5RGdPHRlVY Hope that helps!
Hi. I did download the app and tried it. It’s only for pasting links. I was thinking more of an app where I can actually type in my documents, and not just paste links. Is that in the plans?
Also, do you have plans to separate the sign in from Google?
I made a purchase and tried setting it up with your instructions because I believe in your concept and want to support it. That being said, I don’t think I was able to set it up correctly. I wrote directly from the app to support, hopefully the issue can be fixed and i can use Typed as intended.
Typed looks fantastic. Thanks for bringing it to AppSumo. I have one question - I see right now that it supports only google. Do you have any plans for adding support for the Microsoft 365 platform? I checked your roadmap but did not see anything. I would just like to know if there is some thinking on this or if your plan is to stay google - based only.
Thank you for your message! And yes, we are definitely planning to expand beyond Google services and add Microsoft Office in the near future - we just have to add it to our public roadmap - thank you for the reminder! Watch this space!
A: Hi Avidflow! Yes Typed works with a Google Workspace account too - so you can definitely go ahead and try accessing Typed again! Let us know if you have any issues :)
Q: I have done my research and I am inclined to buy already, just few doubts:
1.
I want to add team members to collaborate but do not want them to see all projects. Can we add team members to a specific project or folder only? 2. Can we create multiple workspaces in tier 2 accounts or higher?
A: Hi Gundeep! That's great! To answer your questions: 1) You can definitely create project based permissions to allow them to be either public or private to only certain team members 2) Unfortunately one Appsumo purchase links to one workspace. For more info - you can check out our Beginner's Guide to Typed here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8Tmud6Nj2I Hope that helps you out :)
Q: For our team, one main use of Google sheets is connecting it via APIs (zapier, webhooks, etc).
Some platforms use the Googlesheets url as a connecting point. I saw in the help docs that the url is under the Typed domain.
Does Types support the use of APIs and/or other Integrations, since it's foundation is still Google Drive? And if so, can we do so from within Typed or do we have to open up a separate Google Drive window and do so?
1. We utilize Zapier to automate backups from Drive to other cloud storage services. Is this possible within Typed?
2. Google Drive has their Desktop Drive integration. Does Typed have something similar / or alternatively, could we continuing using a Google Drive for Desktop as one avenue to upload documents to Typed via the shared drive?
Q: Any chance you'll be adding Safari and Firefox extensions?
And, is an app to access the files on computer and iphone/ipad on your roadmap to add soon? Thanks!
