FlashType — Free Text Expander & Snippets

Type less. Say more. FlashType turns short shortcuts into full messages — anywhere you type on the web. Free, unlimited, and no account required. Tired of retyping the same emails, replies, and phrases all day? Save them once as a snippet, give it a short shortcut like /thanks or /refund, and FlashType expands it into the full text the instant you type it — in Gmail, LinkedIn, your help desk, your CRM, chat, forms, and almost any text box on the web. Most text expanders lock the useful parts behind a paywall or a snippet limit. FlashType doesn't. Unlimited snippets, all the features, completely free — and you can start in seconds without creating an account. WHY PEOPLE SWITCH TO FLASHTYPE • Free and unlimited — no snippet caps, no trials, no "upgrade to unlock." • Start instantly — no sign-up required to use it. • Works where you already write — email, social, docs-style editors, support tools, CRMs, and forms. • Private by design — your snippets live on your device; nothing you type is tracked or sold. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Text expansion — turn /sig, /addr, /pitch into full blocks of text instantly. • Fill-in-the-blank fields — leave gaps like [[Customer name]] and dropdowns, and FlashType asks for them as you insert. • Dates and date math — drop in today's date, or "14 days from now," automatically. • Rich text — bold, italics, links, and lists carry into apps that support them. • 1,000+ ready-made templates — sales, support, recruiting, everyday replies — add with one click. • Command palette — a keyboard launcher (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Space) to find and insert any snippet without leaving the keyboard. • Dictation — speak into any field and FlashType types it for you (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Y). • Folders, search, and organization — keep a big library tidy and findable. • Team libraries — share a set of snippets so everyone stays on-message. • Light and dark, with a polished, fast interface that stays out of your way. COMING FROM TEXT BLAZE, MAGICAL, OR TEXTEXPANDER? Bring your snippets with you. FlashType imports directly from Text Blaze, Magical, and TextExpander exports — you won't lose your library. GREAT FOR Customer support and success • Sales and outbound • Recruiters • Founders and solo operators • Developers • Anyone who answers a lot of email or types the same things over and over. YOUR PRIVACY FlashType is local-first: your snippets are stored on your device. Nothing you type on web pages is collected, and there are no ads and no usage tracking. Data only leaves your device if you choose to sign in and turn on sync to share your library across your own devices. Install FlashType, type a shortcut, and watch it expand. Free, unlimited, and ready in seconds.
