About Text Expander for Google Chrome™

Stop retyping the same emails, replies and addresses. Save any text as a snippet, give it a short keyword, and type ;keyword in any text field to insert it. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create a snippet, for example the keyword "email" for your email address. 2. In any text box on any website, type ;email 3. Press Enter, or let it expand automatically. FEATURES • Works on almost any website: email, chat, help desks, CRMs, forms and social media • Also works in Google Docs, Google Keep and web code editors • Rich text: bold, italic, font sizes and lists, with formatting kept when inserted into email and other rich-text editors • Fill-in fields: add text boxes, date pickers or dropdowns to a snippet and fill them in each time you use it. Useful for names, dates and anything else that changes. • Suggestions as you type: type the trigger character to see matching snippets, then pick one with the arrow keys and Enter • Auto-expand: inserts instantly when you type an exact keyword (you can turn this off) • Right-click any text field to insert a snippet from a menu • Choose your trigger character: ; / ? ` ~ \ | : < > • Toolbar quick access: search your snippets and copy one to the clipboard in one click • Easy to manage: search, sort, duplicate, undo delete, and keyboard shortcuts • Light and dark mode • Interface available in 49 languages GREAT FOR Customer support replies, sales follow-ups, recruiting emails, signatures, addresses, meeting links, and anything else you type more than once. PRIVACY Your snippets are stored locally in your browser. There's no account and no sign-up, and your snippets are never sent to a server. Why it needs access to websites: to spot your trigger keyword while you type and insert your snippet into the field. Nothing you type is saved or sent anywhere.
