2024-05-29 Autumn Only works in the settings page. Literally the only place I can get the text to replace is in the box that says "Type your shortcuts here!"
2024-03-18 Anna I can't open the extension anymore to add or remove snippets. Clicking on the icon just "enables" it
2024-03-01 Maria no funciona
2023-12-01 İbrahim All sites enabled option is not active in the plugin. Please fix it
2023-12-01 Thomas Amending my previous review. There were two issues which led to this add-on not working. One, which was frustrating, was that the saved phrases I had entered were changed during some update, so I had to manually edit them back to normal. The version number was also in there as a phrase which makes me think it was an update that led to the error. The second was that for whatever reason, I now have to click the icon when I want the add-on to work. So now it works like normal, but I'm docking a star for that sloppy update.
2023-11-29 Bambi As of 11/13/23, no longer works. Before then, it worked great for my work tasks that required frequently repeated phrases.
2023-11-22 Bahaa It`s not working anymore on AutoTask
2023-11-17 Thomas Ich nutze diese Tool schon seit mehreren Jahren und war bis jetzt immer begeistert!!! Leider Funktioniert das Add-on seit ca. 14 Tagen nicht mehr. Anscheinend seit dem letzten Update. Ich nutze Microsoft Edge Version 119.0.2151.58 (Offizielles Build) (64-Bit). Ich bitte um Lösungsvorschläge bzw. um einen Fix. Vielen Dank! ================ I have been using this tool for several years and have always been delighted with it!!! Unfortunately, the add-on has not been working for about 14 days. Apparently since the last update. I use Microsoft Edge version 119.0.2151.58 (official build) (64-bit). Please suggest a solution or a fix. Thank you very much!
2023-11-15 Christoph Meh, the last update changed basically all of the triggers of my macros, it was a pain in the *** to fix that. Who thinks to themselves "Gee people use my Auto-Text Expander app for convenience, lets make it more difficult to use!"
2023-11-13 Valeria Funcionó perfecto durante un tiempo pero de un día para otro ya no sirve ninguno de los shortcuts, se perdieron todos, ya no me deja ni siquiera ingresar dando click en la extensión para crear más, nunca pude realizar una copia de seguridad.
