Auto Text Expander: Text Shortcuts & Snippets

Auto Text Expander — Type less. Do more.

Stop typing the same things over and over. Create shortcuts for the text you use every day — email replies, signatures, addresses, meeting notes — and watch them expand instantly as you type, in any website and any editor.

⚡ WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT

• Instant text shortcuts — Type your shortcut (like /sig) and it expands to your full text the moment you press space. Works in regular inputs, multi-line fields, rich text editors, and even Google Docs.

• Powerful macros
{{yyyy-mm-dd}} — today's date, always current
{{HH:mm}} — current time
{{yyyy-mm-dd|+7d}} — dates with offsets (7 days from now, one week ago…)
$|$ — place the cursor exactly where you want after expanding
$^$ — insert your current clipboard content

• Fill-in placeholders — Put [[name]] or [[date]] anywhere in your text. When the shortcut expands, a small form pops up so you can fill in the details — including a calendar date picker with custom formats like [[date:mm/dd/yyyy]].

• Rich text support — Shortcuts can include bold, lists, and line breaks. Perfect for professional signatures and formatted replies.

• Floating quick search — A small floating ball sits in the corner of every page. Click it to search your shortcuts by keyword or tag and insert any of them with one click. Drag the ball anywhere you like — its position is remembered.

• Site pause — Working on a site where you don't want expansions? Pause it with one toggle from the popup. Turn it back on anytime.

• Case-insensitive & flexible — Optionally match shortcuts regardless of capitalization, and choose how each shortcut fits your workflow with tags for organizing.

• Import & export — Bring your shortcuts with you. Export to CSV, import from CSV or JSON — no vendor lock-in.
