| 2024-12-19 | Margaret S | | Was looking for a replacement for TextBlaze after switching from Chrome to Firefox. This did not work in Google Docs in Firefox, which was the main place I needed it. |

| 2024-04-23 | Jo Li KMC | | I recently switched web browsers due to some… irritations… and I was hoping to find an Addon like "Text Blaze" for Google Chrome. I've gotten very accustomed to having my text "expanded" as it does on mobile devices, and I find the feature very handy. Sadly, this Addon doesn't suit that need at all. Sometimes, it works. It seemed to operate just fine under search engines like Google and other simple forms, and it works well under its own "try it here" form. Most times, however, it doesn't work at all. Noteworthy examples of this are Online Notepad, Discord, and this very review form. Please remedy this and get back to us. Thank you. |

| 2023-08-13 | Darvin Atkeson | | Seems to work just fine in the test area but can't get it to work with Facebook or even in this text box for the review. Needs work. Would also prefer a hot key to make it activate instead. For instance, type any word and hit a F3 or other designated key. This would allow you to use common words and have them activate only when you wanted. Alternative it could popup a dialog on hot words and you hit TAB to enter the auto text. Using common words would make it simpler. But right now, it just doesn't work at all. :( |
| 2023-06-11 | Lemons22 | | Addon is busted, but probably in a way that most don't care about...but I do! It claims to be able to "Store unlimited amount of client-side data" HOWEVER there is a limit on how much data it can store obviously cause I have run into that damn limit and I can't create any more shortcuts. REMOVE THIS LIMIT or at least greatly raise the upper limit cause we are probably talking about megabytes here I don't know why the limit is so harsh. |
| 2023-05-04 | russman2014 | | I use this for work all the time and absolutely love it! It's made repetitive tasks so much easier! |
| 2023-02-21 | blue crow | | It couldn't expand a simple phrase correctly. But the idea is good. |
