Saves me a ton of time every day.

PROS

I'm writing emails and sending out reminder emails every day. Typinator makes it nearly effortless to instantly write what would otherwise be time-consuming emails. It also allows me to streamline other writing tasks.

CONS

I haven't encountered any cons yet. It can take some time to learn how to develop more sophisticated shortcuts but that's not necessarily a con, it's just a necessary part of the process.

Unsung hero for me

PROS

Here is an email i sent to Ergonis: Hi there. I have used your product for years and although I use it extensively, it sort of flies under the radar because I rarely see the app itself. I just want to let you know that I find it in valuable for two reasons: 1. I do a ridiculous amount of repetitive text 2. I have chronic pain in both shoulders and using my fingers aggravates the pain On the first point, you can save me literally hours per day. I don't actually save time, I become more productive because I use that time to do more work. On the second point, the less typing I do, the less I aggravate my shoulders. So like I said before, I find your product invaluable. Thank you.

CONS

Nothing

Indispensible

Very positive, in fact I'd say it's indispensible.

PROS

Simplicity of use is the feature I like best

CONS

I suppose having it tucked away in the corner of the screen where I can hit the Apple icon by mistake.

Vendor Response

In the top three of my productivity apps.

I don't know what I'd do without it. I have used similar apps on my Mac, but none have compared.

PROS

Typinator saves me oodles of time when responding to prospective clients and with my client follow-up. Clients constantly comment on how quickly I get back to them with information specific to their needs. I can do this in large part because, with a few keystrokes to trigger the appropriate information I've created and stored in Typinator, I can provide fantastic customer service and save myself loads of time.

CONS

I appreciate Typinator so much that I feel compelled from time to time to send a note to its creator telling him how integral it is in my day-to-day life. Ironically, I was about to send a note of appreciation of my own accord when I received the email asking if I would review my use of Typinator. The only thing that would make it better is if there was a version I could use on my iPhone and iPad.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're happy to hear how much Typinator means to you. Our purpose is to streamline life’s complexities, allowing time for other activities. Your suggestion for an iPhone and iPad version has been noted, and all I can say is, stay tuned for updates. Thanks again for your support!

Amazing Time-Saver Dramatically Increases Productivity

Of all my productivity apps, Typinator is the one I use daily - often hourly.

PROS

I can use Typinator for both business and personal use. I've created everything from short snippets to entire emails in Typinator. Much of the work I do requires reaching out to multiple people/organizations with essentially the same message. Typinator allows me to almost instantaneously create correspondence for each one that can then be customized simply by adding their name in the Greeting. I'm also often asked by clients for availability dates, and I have a simple snippet that details my calendar procedure and includes a link to my online calendar.

CONS

Mostly user error. I have so many snippets, I sometimes forget I've created one, and inadvertently trigger it. However, being able to choose character case and other variables helps mitigate that.

Vendor Response

hank you for your fantastic review! We're happy to hear how Typinator has become an essential part of your daily workflow. Your support means a lot to us, and we're here to assist with any further tips or guidance you might need to make the most out of Typinator.
