About this app

Expand is a free, offline text expander for Android. Create short triggers like /addr, /sig, or /email, and Expand automatically replaces them with your full saved text. Works in any app, with your existing keyboard.

FEATURES
• Unlimited snippets, no caps, no premium tiers
• Works with any keyboard: GBoard, SwiftKey, Samsung Keyboard
• Dynamic variables: insert current date, time, clipboard contents, UUIDs, math expressions
• Interactive prompts: {prompt:Name} asks for input, {choice:Mr,Ms,Mx} shows options
• Cursor positioning: place {cursor} to set where you'll type next
• Folder organization with color-coded folders
• JSON import/export, portable and human-readable
• Usage statistics: track expansions, characters saved, time saved
• Password-field safe, never expands in sensitive fields
• 100% offline with zero network permissions
• Tiny footprint, under 2 MB

HOW IT WORKS
1. Create a snippet: trigger /addr → replacement "123 Main St, Springfield, IL"
2. Type /addr in any app (Gmail, WhatsApp, Notes, Chrome...)
3. A suggestion card appears. Tap ✓ to expand.
4. Done! Your full text replaces the trigger instantly.

SUPPORTED VARIABLES
• {date} / {date:MMM d, yyyy}: current date
• {time} / {time:h:mm a}: current time
• {clipboard}: paste clipboard contents
• {cursor}: position cursor after expansion
• {prompt:Label}: ask for user input

PRIVACY
Expand uses an Accessibility Service solely to detect trigger words in text fields. No text is logged, stored, or transmitted. The app has zero network permissions and cannot access the internet. All data stays on your device.
