Conditional Sections in snippets (Phased Rollout). Build if/then branching directly into a snippet: wrap content in a conditional section with named branches, and the fill-in window shows a dropdown that reveals only the selected branch’s content and fill-ins. Sections nest, branches are unlimited, and you can embed other snippets inside a branch. The expanded result reads as one clean document with no leftover blank lines.
Spell check and grammar suggestions in the snippet editor (Phased Rollout). Misspellings get a dashed red underline and grammar suggestions a wavy purple one. Click an underline to see suggestions, then apply or ignore. The checker skips macros, the spacing around them, and script snippets, and it also works in the default text fields of fill-in dialogs. Checking is English (en-US) for now. While it is active, the built-in system spell check turns off in that editor so you see only one set of underlines.
Sign in with your browser. The sign-in screen now offers a single “Sign in with browser” button that hands authentication to your browser session, so you never type your password into the app window. A “Sign in manually” link keeps the email and password form one click away.

Clearer Secure Input status. When macOS Secure Input pauses expansion, the menu bar icon now shows a prominent red slash, and notifications identify the source more accurately, showing “macOS Secure Input” when the system itself is holding it (for example, right after waking or unlocking your Mac).
Group sharing is easier to find. Selecting a snippet group now shows an actions menu in the header with Share, Group Settings, and Delete, replacing the buried right-click and gear-icon paths.

Fixed a crash when using Print All Groups with groups containing rich text snippets.
Fixed date and time macros not inserting into single-line and multi-line fill-in fields.
Fixed the Dock icon reappearing, and refusing to hide again, after opening TextExpander via Spotlight, Alfred, or Finder while it was running in the background with the Dock icon hidden.
Fixed a small square artifact appearing in the center of the Delete Snippet confirmation dialog on some macOS versions.
Other fixes: the snippet type dropdown is now disabled for snippets the editor cannot safely edit, matching the editor itself, and switching a snippet to a script type and back no longer strips the compatibility guard that protects newer snippets from older clients.
