Worth knowing
- What is the maximum number of repeats? 10,000, as long as the result stays under five million characters.
- Can I repeat multi-line text? Yes. The whole block is repeated as it is.
- Can I send repeated text in chat apps? Be careful. Repeated messages can break the rules of chat apps and social networks. Use repeated text responsibly.
- Works on any text column, not only Text Input's: pick it under Text column. Tick Generate New Column to keep the original next to the result.
