I rarely write reviews. Most now push you before you have even checked out the app. It's ridiculous! This one doesn't. The free version doesn't bombard you with ads, and does exactly what it says. They continually update, you can flash anything, or backup. Not being a computer wiz, it's an easy app, straight forward. Tried a bunch, this one is easiest to keep routine phrases and lists. I haven’t even tried the advanced stuff, and its been over a year. So yeah worth trying. I bought it.

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.

Cannot use apostrophes in shortcuts?- why? Apostrophes are automatically added to words, pretty much uncontrollably. So if your shortcut/trigger cannot recognize a word with an apostrophe, that will end up excluding a huge percentage of possible triggers. If it's ever fixed, I'll git it another go and update the review.. because otherwise the app *seemed* like it would've done what I needed.. and I really don't want to have to write yet *another* custom android tool/app :-\
