How do you have app user add and customize their own button?

So I am currently working on creating a customizable text-to-speech app. One of the main draws is the ability to create and save your own commonly used phrases, but I can't figure out how to code it. Are there any extensions or coding tricks I should use?

you might want to store the phrases in a list and the list in TinyDB in one tag
