Texpand

Very often, we need to type similar stuff on our phone repeatedly – e.g.  our office address, or email id, etc. It could get pretty boring and sometimes frustrating when you are in a hurry.

Texpand allows you to create abbreviations for any repetitive stuff that you may have to type. Once you create an abbreviation and define what text it will signify, you can just type in the abbreviation and the full text will be automatically inserted. It will work on SMS, Whatsapp or any other area where you use the keyboard. By systematically specifying abbreviations to frequently used phrases Texpand can help you save thousands of keystrokes and several hours per week.

The free version allows you to create upto 10 abbreviations which is more than sufficient for most users. Install Texpand today and you will wonder how you managed to do without it for so long!
