What it is
TextExpander turns short keystrokes into saved text that expands across devices and apps. It supports macOS, Windows, Chrome, Linux through a Chrome extension, iPhone and iPad, and a web app. The Free plan lasts indefinitely without a credit card and allows five active Snippets; users can swap one active Snippet every two weeks. Free sharing covers up to five team members across three teams. New accounts get a 30-day preview of advanced features, then move to Free with five Snippets still active. Pro is $5 a month per user, billed annually at $60, and Business is $10 a month per user, billed annually at $120. Both paid plans include unlimited active Snippets and teams. Paid plans add dynamic content such as date math and JavaScript. Enterprise has custom pricing and can include SSO, SCIM, and customized reporting. Support includes community and email channels, with priority support on paid plans. Listed integrations include Zendesk, Salesforce, Epic, Cerner, and HelpScout. Prices are in USD and exclude tax; VAT or GST may be added at checkout.
