Ask AI about anything on your iPhone screen.
3tap connects iPhone Back Tap, screenshots, and AI. Triple tap the back of your iPhone, choose Summary, Translate, or Chat, and get a plain-English answer without typing or switching apps.
What it does
3tap turns a screenshot into an AI conversation.
Most AI tools make you copy text, upload an image, describe the context, and wait. 3tap makes the screen itself the context. The Shortcut captures what you are looking at, sends it to 3tap, and returns the answer as a simple mobile result.
Translate what you see
Menus, messages, websites, documents, screenshots, and images can be translated from the screen you are already viewing.
Summarize long screens
Turn a dense page, chat, PDF preview, or article screenshot into the key points without copying text by hand.
Understand confusing UI
Ask what a warning, form, dashboard, receipt, chart, or app screen means before you act on it.
Draft a reply
Send a chat screenshot and ask for a clear reply, a shorter version, or a more professional answer.
Setup
Set it up once. Use it from anywhere.
3tap uses native iPhone Back Tap and Shortcuts. After setup, the workflow is always the same: triple tap, choose the AI action, read the result.
Start the trial
Create your 3tap account and copy the API key from your dashboard.
Install the Shortcut

Assign Back Tap
In iOS Settings, set Triple Tap to run the 3tap Shortcut.

Mobile flow
From screen to answer in three taps.
These are the real screens users move through: the trial, Shortcut install, and the returned AI answer.

Open 3tap.ai on iPhone, start the free trial, and get your API key.

Why it is different
It keeps the context on the screen.
Screenshots are often the fastest way to explain what you need. 3tap is built for those moments: a travel sign you cannot read, a medical form you need simplified, a chart you want explained, or a conversation where you need the right reply.
