Using TextExpander-Enhanced Apps With The TextExpander Keyboard
While the custom keyboard allows users to expand Snippets in any app, there are a couple of types of Snippets that cannot expand via the keyboard.
- Rich text and formatted text Snippets will expand as plain text
- Fill-in Snippets cannot expand via the keyboard
If you use a TextExpander-enhanced app for iPhone & iPad, you won’t have those limitations. With a TextExpander-enhanced app you can:
- Expand formatted text Snippets
- Expand fill-in Snippets, note that not all apps have chosen to implement this feature
- Expand Snippets using any keyboard you want, not just the TextExpander keyboard
- Expand Snippets with a Bluetooth keyboard
