This is a wonderfully useful app. So many apps in this category are so locked behind a pay wall that you don't get a chance to adequately try them out. This app lets you make 10 "shortcuts" to see how they work. I tried it for a couple days and immediately purchased the lifetime subscription. This app does everything I wanted, is easy to use, is easier to try than other apps, and is reasonably priced. Thanks guys for making the app I have been looking for for years!

Does what it claims to do. Lots of options and information for the technical user; it provides intuitive UX for the tech-savvy. My only dislike about it is that it is not working in Google Drive document edit, which was the original reason I was looking for a text expander app, but that is more of an issue on Google Drive's part (non standard text input) than an issue with the app.

I love it! Wanted a way to have the phone fetch the current date and time and insert one or both in my choice of format. This app does that perfectly, and much more. The free version is limited to 10 phrases, which is enough for me, but if you need more, the paid version is not very expensive. Highly recommend!
