Rerit support / Start here

Get unstuck.
Keep writing.

Most issues come down to one of three things: the app is not running, Accessibility access is off, or another app owns the shortcut.

First run

Three steps.
Then stay out of the way.

01
Install and open Rerit
Move Rerit into Applications and launch it once. Keep the menu-bar process running.
Download ↗
02
Allow Accessibility access
macOS uses this permission so Rerit can copy the selected text and paste the result back.
System Settings
03
Select text and press ⌘ ⇧ E
Watch the status capsule. Your original words remain safe if the request cannot complete.

Fast diagnosis

Confirm Rerit is running in the menu bar. Then check that ⌘ ⇧ E is not assigned to another app.

Open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility and enable Rerit. Quit and reopen the app after changing access.

Rerit needs an internet connection for the rewrite request. The status capsule will show whether it is capturing, requesting, or replacing.

Open Rerit from Applications. If the main window was closed, the app may still be running in the menu bar.

Product answers

What happens to selected text?+

Only the selection is sent when you press the shortcut. It is processed for the rewrite and is not retained as document content afterward.

How many rewrites are included?+

Free accounts receive 5 rewrites each day. Pro accounts receive 1,000 rewrites each day.

Which apps work with Rerit?+

Rerit works in most macOS and Windows apps that support standard text selection, copy, and paste behavior.

Can I cancel Pro?+

Yes. You can manage or cancel billing from the subscription page. Paid access continues through the current billing period.

Still blocked?

Include your operating system, the app you were writing in, and what the status capsule displayed.
