I have been using the app for a couple of years now here in Las Vegas as a Club promoter and it makes my life 100 times easier. If you use shortcuts a lot like I do you'd need to get the premium subscription because you are capped off to 10 shortcuts with the non-premium version. The premium is unlimited. recently I got a new phone and my lifetime subscription did not transfer over and no response back from customer service for almost a week now. App deserves 5 stars but I need a refund/credit

I already paid for the premium and had been using it for months just fine. It has just stopped working because of accessibility issues. I enabled everything and even sent an email with no response. As a last ditch effort, I backed up my files and uninstalled the app and re-installed and now it is limiting me to only 10 phrases again and there is no option to login, only to repurchase the premium. I am furious because this is interfering with my business! Help!

OMG: Texpand saves me quite a bit of time every day with entering repetitive text: grocery lists, multiple email signatures, annoying punctuation and symbols (e.g., etc., ∆, ⋮ , ...), auto-entering dates in multiple formats, words I usually misspell. It will even enter a phrase or set of symbols with the cursor set exactly where you want it. It is well designed, with a shallow learning curve, and easy-to-use functionality. One of my favorite productivity apps.
