Text Expander has alleviated the anxiety I have about typing rapidly and accurately. I honestly can't think of a single downside. I'd love to use this on my phone, because typing on a phone is even more time consuming than on a computer. My only gripe thus far is that they don't have an Android app. You can also quickly enable/disable it (like I did for this review so I could include example snippets that I use. On a Mac, you can access it from the dock, the menu bar or hide it completely (but still use it). The whole app runs smoothly, in the background. And have the ENTER key automatically pressed by TextExpander when the snippet runs. Or you can create a "//url" that gives you a dropdown of the 5 most common pages you visit on a particular site. And, they're easy to delete, so I actually create quite a few "one-off" snippets with common words/phrases for a current project I'm working on. They're also easy to duplicate so you can mass produce them. PROSÄ«ottom Line: It saves me A TON of time during the work day. Super efficient, while still being very personable. With TextExpander, I can open a template, type in a few 'fill in the blank' fields to customize it, and then insert the customized version. I have a few standard email responses I send. EMAIL TEMPLATES I also use it for support. "css.animation" outputs the animation keyframes. For example, "html.form" outputs the general form markup with all the common form fields. I'm a WordPress developer, so I'm constantly writing code. HTML/CSS CODE I've created a handful of snippets that output common code I use. I type the snippet, hit the down arrow to go through the page options, then hit ENTER, and it automatically enters the URL in the browser, and navigates there. There are a few WordPress admin pages I visit regularly, to check reports, sales, customers, write blog posts, etc. For example, "//esc" is for my website,. Then I give myself a few options in a dropdown of which page I want to visit. URLs I use a prefix of "//" followed by a three-letter abbreviation for a website. This quickly inserts the emoji without me needing to look it up online on a copy/paste site. EMOJIS I use a prefix of "::", followed by the name of the emoji.
