About Simple Text Shortcuts And Snippets
Save time by creating custom text shortcuts that instantly expand into longer snippets as you type — on any website.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Click the extension icon and add a shortcut (e.g., ";em") and its expanded text (e.g., "myemail@example.com")
2. Type your shortcut in any text field, input, or content-editable area on any webpage
3. It auto-replaces instantly — no extra keys needed
FEATURES
• Works everywhere — input fields, textareas, and contentEditable elements across all websites
• Real-time expansion — shortcuts replace as you type, no hotkeys required
• Instant sync — add, edit, or delete shortcuts from the popup and they take effect immediately
• Lightweight — no background network requests, no bloat, no tracking
• Simple UI — just a shortcut and its expanded text, nothing more
USE CASES
• Email addresses: ;em → myemail@example.com
• Canned responses: ;ty → "Thank you for reaching out! I'll get back to you shortly."
• Code snippets: ;log → console.log()
• Addresses, signatures, URLs, or any text you type repeatedly
