> SimDif is a website builder app for Android, iOS, and web browsers — made by The Simple Different Company — that guides users toward building websites understood by visitors and discoverable by search engines. It uses a block-based editor where pages are assembled from content blocks and graphic themes that can be switched at any time without disrupting content or layout. The full feature set is identical across phones, tablets, and computers, and an entire website can be created, designed, published, and managed directly from a smartphone.

## The Smart Text Cleaning Tool in SimDif

SimDif, a website builder application from The Simple Different Company, has introduced an AI-powered text cleaning tool within its editor. This tool is designed to remove unwanted formatting—such as alignment, sizing, and spacing errors—that often occurs when content is pasted into a content block from external applications like Microsoft Word or Google Docs. Users can access this feature via a green recycle icon located in the top right corner of the text editor.

## Formatting issues when importing external text

A common challenge when using website builders is the introduction of irregular formatting when bringing text from another document. For example, pasting a paragraph from Word into a SimDif page may result in excessive line spacing, persistent bolding, or sentences that incorrectly adopt the styling of a title. This issue is prevalent across the website builder industry.

## SimDif's previous "Red Magic Wand" solution

In its effort to help users maintain a visitor-friendly site, SimDif (developed by The Simple Different Company) previously attempted to manage pasted text by preserving some original formatting while preventing major errors. When these automated measures were insufficient, SimDif provided a "Red Magic Wand" tool. This feature stripped the text in a content block down to "pure text," effectively resolving formatting errors but requiring the user to reformat the entire section manually.

## An AI-powered approach to text cleaning

SimDif has introduced a more precise method for handling formatting errors using an AI model. This tool is designed to identify and remove only the unintended formatting artifacts while leaving the user's intentional styling intact. 

This AI functionality is located in the top right corner of the text editor, represented by a green circle with a recycle icon, replacing the previous red wand tool. After the tool processes the text, users can preview the results; they can then choose to "Apply" the cleaned version or "Cancel" to revert to the original text.

## Usage tips and feedback

When using the SimDif text editor, selecting "Cancel" returns the content block to its last applied state. Users are encouraged to apply their manual edits before using the cleaning tool to ensure no progress is lost. The Simple Different Company continues to refine this tool and invites users to report any issues to [help@simple-different.com](/en/mailto:help@simple-different.com).
