Features

Everything you need to type faster

SmartText is built for people who type the same things over and over โ€” recruiters, support teams, developers, and writers.

โšก

Instant expansion anywhere

Works in Gmail, Notion, Slack, GitHub, LinkedIn, and every other website. Type your shortcut + Space and watch it expand instantly.

-ooo โ†’ I'm out of office until {{date}}. For urgent matters...
๐Ÿ“

Folders & organisation

Group shortcuts into folders โ€” Work, Personal, Code. Toggle between flat list and folder view in one click.

๐Ÿ“š

Template library

One-click install curated packs: Email Replies, HR & Recruiting, Code Snippets, Customer Support, Markdown.

๐Ÿ”„

Smart variables

Auto-fill {{date}}, {{time}}, {{email}} and use {{cursor}} to place your cursor precisely.

๐Ÿ”’

Domain-specific shortcuts

Restrict shortcuts to specific websites. Your work signature only fires on Gmail. Your code snippets only on GitHub.

๐ŸŽฏ

Floating widget

A discreet A button on every page. Search shortcuts, toggle SmartText on/off, or access the overlay โ€” without opening the popup.

๐ŸŒ™

Dark & light mode

Matches your workflow. Toggle between dark Obsidian and clean light mode in the popup or settings page.

โŒจ๏ธ

Keyboard shortcut overlay

Press Ctrl+Shift+Q on any page to open a searchable overlay of all your shortcuts.

๐Ÿ’ก

The hyphen convention

Always prefix your shortcuts with a hyphen: -ty instead of ty. This prevents accidental expansions mid-sentence โ€” hyphens almost never appear at the start of a word naturally, so expansion only happens when you mean it.

โš ๏ธ Without hyphen Type hi there โ†’ Hello! How can I help you today? there
โœ… With hyphen Type -hi + Space โ†’ Expands perfectly
