Create a Shortcut for Typing email Address Quickly in iOS

Create a Shortcut for Typing eMail Address Quickly in iOS:

One of the most frustrating things to type on the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch keyboards is an email address. Typing out a name, then tapping the “.?123? button to access special characters and numbers, then tapping it again to type more letters, than tapping it yet again to type a period, and again to finish off an email address, by the time you’re done you’ve shifted between the touch keyboards half a billion times. Instead of repeating that process over and over again, do yourself a favor and create a keyboard shortcut for your email address.

Open "Settings" and tap on "General"

Scroll down and tap "Keyboard" and at the bottom of that screen tap "Add New Shortcut"

Enter the email address at the top and create your text expansion shortcut on the bottom

Tap "Save" and exit out of Settings

Some general advice for setting these email expansions to be the most effective: use a shortcut that doesn’t match any other word, and keep them short and containing only characters that are accessible on the primary iOS keyboard.

Once configured you can try it out. Open any place you'd enter text, like Notes or Messages, and type the shortcut you set, it will automatically expand to the email address. No more tapping and switching keyboards between numbers, letters, periods, @ signs, your life is now easier and you'll be touch typing even faster.
