Re: Txt expansion
I have trouble with the text expansion “sticking”. I set up one, for example, to expand into my email address. Lots of times, it just remains as the three letters and doesn’t expand into what it’s supposed to. Have any suggestions?

Hello Gena, Sorry for my bad memory, after entering your string, press Tab rather than VO-Right Arrow. The rest is correct.

Re: Txt expansion
Hello Gena, On the Mac, to add a string and substitution: • In System Preferences, press k for Keyboard and VO-Space to open that tab; • Select Text; • Press VO-Cmd-t to go to the table of substitutions; • Press VO-Down Arrow to get to the Add button; • Press VO-Space on the button and type your string; • Press VO-Right Arrow and type your expanded text. That’s it. To add a line break, press Option-Return.

Re: Txt expansion
Hello Jonathan, That’s exactly what I want to do but do they get carried across all your devices or do you have to enter them on each device you wish to use? On the Mac You have to do a lot of VO navigation, after pressing the add button, you have to VO 9 times. As for IOS, the focus seems to vary using my Apple keyboard. So I purchased text expander and the touch version. But that is great for bigger snippets. Have you found a quick way of entering abbreviations on the Mac? I wonder if you use a lot of the braille contractions? I had put them in my phone but then removed them because I put a space after them. I used the semicolon for the 4,5 prefix and the colon for 4,5,6, oh and the full stop as dot 5 or 6. Oh and I wondered have you found a way to put a line break, so you could do things like postal addresses? BTW: Do you know what is the maximum character length?

Hi Gina, I use the text expansion built into Mac and iOS and it's a huge time saver. I've got a lot of three-letter abbreviations that result in expansion into very lengthy messages.
