The competition will run for one week, and we’ll announce the randomly selected winners on the Thursday 28th October. Good luck, and enjoy your weekend!


  • herman

    I’d like to win! And you better let me win, cause that would increase my odds of becoming a great physician and thus healing you from all those nasty diseases (I’m studying medicine and have to type a lot – TextExpander would be a remedy!)

  • Tim

    Commonly used snippets of code!

  • Rob Weber

    I read the comparison article, and I think my productivity could improve with this app. Why not use the best?

  • Jon Erickson

    because i don’t have any patience…

  • Chris

    Because I love my Mac and it would make coding and writing emails so much more comfortable!

  • Smyge

    I’m ready to jump on the text expanding fashion train!

  • Claudius

    I’d like to win a copy cause I am a “poor” student from germany, living at the edge of existence with my MacBook Pro :)
    Well… anyway… a copy of TextExpander would be pretty awesome!

    Cheers!

    Hola!!!

  • Martin Blumenfeld

  • georg

  • Dan

    TextExpander seems to be in the top 5 productivity tools for the Mac. Who wouldn’t want that? Union workers, maybe. Hehehe

  • Nathan

    I want to win this because I am developer and anything that can improve my overall coding speed saves me time and money! This app is probably the best thing I have seen for this purpose in quite sometime and think it would greatly improve my speed!

    Thanks!

  • Chris Dolan

    As a developer, TextExpander is more important to my day to day productivity than Emacs. Now that is saying a lot!

  • mor4ee

    Cool. I’m really need it.

  • yoose

    been thinking about these apps since i read the other article. if i win, then i wont have to decide which one to buy!

    What can I say? TextExpanding – no more textfounding ;>

    Thanks for offering the giveaway!

    I’d like to win a copy because I’d use it, everyday. As an attorney, I’m constantly typing in the same text, over and over, and a global text expander is just what I need. Plus, I hear TextExpander is the best!

  • http://boio.ro adrian boioglu

    Text Expander is one of my top 2 Mac Utilities and I would love to get a license. Keep up the good work!

  • syphadius

    In a day to day use it would just make sense, we all try and cut corners to either be quicker or to simply be more effective in our work/play, I would use this vs my other apps. I think it is basically much more complete.

    Good luck everyone!

  • Rhett

    I’m picking up work at a major production company this week; getting common snippets of information (such as address, job titles, and any other repeating elements I’ll see soon) down QUICKLY will make me much more efficient, hopefully drawing a little positive attention in the process.

  • http://samhowat.com Sam Howat

    I’m trying to cut down on the amount of repetitive tasks that I do. I read your article and it looks like TextExpander is right fit. Hope I win!

    Having any type of app that will help me be more productive means more money in my pocket!

  • Pedro

    I type to much. My keyboard letters are going dim. I need textexpander. My life would improve so much.

  • D Peter

    This looks like productivity on/in an app. Looked for similiar apps, but there aren’t that many as good. This could make things easier and more productive.

  • http://www.jeff-gardner.ca NextMemory

    As a developer its quite time saving to have some common lines of text/code by hand ;)

  • Leonardo Bighi

    I need one of these licenses, or else… I’m going to be eaten by Monkeys. Evil monkeys. Evil Brazilian monkeys with bananas on their handas.

    I live in Brazil, so I really need to deal with these life-threatening furry devils. The best way to do this is typing a lot of texts and giving these texts to the monkeys. They don’t attack when reading.

    Text Expander will realy help me typing a lot of stuff really fast. Most of the text will be repeated and the story (yes, it has a story) won’t make sense. But what do I care, they’re monkeys!

    Have to type a lot of code over and over again. The copy of textexpander will be useful while writing tutorials for Tutsplus ;)

  • http://artform.ca Artform

    I’ve been testing out various text expansion utilities and haven’t settles on one yet. As a database manager and web dev, I’m constantly looking for (and making) shortcuts to simplify command lines.

    Typinator and Presto seem to be the only other worthy competitors on OS X. A free license would end the battle!

  • http://www.wp.sk JohnnyPea

    I just think it is great :P

    This app would greatly help my work. :)

    I would really like to speed up some daily tasks in office with this …

  • Chris

  • James

    TextExpander would help speed up my development work.

    I participate quit a lot in online Mac forums and find myself continuously typing the same words like “Snow Leopard” or where to find a certain application.
    With TextExpander I could just type “SL” or “AppPath” and save some me some time spent typing.

  • http://www.twitter.com/evilmeteor Jaime

    I’d love to win a license to Textexpander because you would then be directly responsible for helping me avoid RSI injuries. I answer so many support emails in the same fashion it’s not even funny! And imagine the increased productiveness while coding! Hell I think my family would also be grateful for any way you can help me save time, I bet Textexpander can easily save me a couple of hours a week!

  • Riccardo Luigi Varisco

    because I want more than one my email signature

  • http://hd-webdesign.com Lukas

    Because we need it for business and completely love this little tool in our everyday work :-)

  • http://www.tazintosh.com Tazintosh

    “Why you’d like to win a copy”?
    Well, strictly based on this sentence, this would avoid me buying one!

  • Rithvik

    I would love to win a license as I will be getting my first Mac very soon and a ton of truly amazing software discovered @ appstorm are on the my to-buy list.One free license would be very welcome indeed!

  • dorian_grey

    I’m using Typinator at the moment, but as TextExpander for iOS is getting more and more support from 3rd party apps and I do more and more typing on my iPad (in which case I could really need a text expanding tool) switching to TextExpander with its possibility to sync is something I really think about right now. So … winning the desktop license would be awesome! :)

  • http://franciscans.tv Matto

    I’d love to win ’cause it’s a great piece of software.

  • Robert

    Using the built-in Snow Leopard tool at the moment, would love something more robust and fully featured.

  • http://twitter.com/florianlionel Florian Taltavull

  • http://www.mostdefi.com Scott Seligman

    I need this because I have 3 jobs and I go to school so I have zero time. I am sad and without a second of extra time. If I only I had text expander I could save a couple precious seconds and then I could stop and smell a single rose.

    to keep all my buddies from telling me to buy it. been putting this off for too long.

  • http://hector-lee.com Hector Lee

    I have been coding and writing lots of stuff recently. However, not every app has auto-complete especially text apps like Pages. Once you get used to auto-complete like XCode its has to go back to typing everything yourself.

  • http://sektorrd.com Locke

    I want this Text Expander App just because….

  • http://www.maxbreakwell.com Max

    It’s like a license for lazy typing. Awesome.

  • Nik P

    I’d really like a copy! As a student I have to outline a lot, using similar strands of text for notes, essays, assignments. This would help a ton!

  • http://www.monozoo.com|www.hipotezi.com Atanas Kirjakovski

    Good for precreated references for scientific writing.

  • Ken Barton

    I enter a lot of repetitive text as part of my job as an fundraising event coordinator – TextExpander would be a great improvement for timelines, GTD, and documentation.

    I’m a student and it would make note taking so much easier!

  • http://milespomeroy.com Miles

    To make coding faster.

  • http://twitter.com/craftydevon CraftyDevon

    Ah, what a absolute pleasure it’d be to save a few toe-strokes here and there.

    I’d like to win a copy so that I can easily paste plain text in apps which don’t have the ‘Paste and Match Style’ option in their ‘Edit’ menu (which is more than you’d think).

  • Francois

    The feature that puts TextExpander above all the other typing utilities IMHO is the Fill-in-the-blank snippets feature. Using custom fields for variable input would make my life so much easier when writing repetitive emails…

  • http://sair.am/ Sairam

    text expander + textmate = the best way to code

    I just want to save time. :D

  • leesui

    It makes me more productivity

  • stormworvil

  • Gian

    I love this app for mac

  • Carlos

    I use LaTeX a lot for writing my papers, and it is very common to reuse a lot of mini-templates for figures, tables, etc. The same apply for coding, where no big algorithms are need but just small common pieces. Finally, I often prefer filtering text data files using regular expressions using different editors, so having a good bunch of them pre-stored would be great!

  • davale

    Great, count me in!

  • Xavier Yelmo

    I’ve been trying TextExpander for a few days and I love this app, now I couldn’t live without it

  • Andy ZE2

    I don’t know how many times I have been to the Smile site to look at this app, but every time I really think that I just can’t justify it. I am pasting snippets into Simplenote at the moment, and although it is a great app I know that TextExpander would probably make more sense. It’s the price that’s putting me off, even when I have seen it discounted. So I have sat there dithering whether to buy this and PDF Pen, but haven’t got any further. Make me the winner and I will buy PDF Pen too!!

  • Clemens Bauer

    I Gould like to win because I write a lot of emails and long texts on my Mac and for this reason owning a copy for TextExpander would be a great help!

  • http://battlefaze.com/forum RJ Davidson

    I Love how you guys always do these competitions. Ok, so here is my reason:
    I would love to have a copy of Text Expander cause i am a Web Developer, as you probably know, web developers are always typing. Most if it is is the same as what they typed three lines ago, this can really get to you cause you feel like you never get anything done! Please let me have a copy of Text Expander so i can insert my text easy into the code! Thanks

    Of course I’l like to win. As a developer I can sure you, back when I was still working with Windows, there wasn’t a single project that I’ve did that didn’t have somehting written with Texter (a free Windows alternative). So why should I win? So that I could have this great feature again to boost up my productivity. Also ’cause I work as a part-time teacher, it would be nice to teach people about this tool too. :)

  • Richard

    My iMac asked me to through his hat in the ring to hopefully win. He is lonely and wants to mate with TextExpander.

  • Gavin

  • Igor

    Great mac utility to own.

  • http://cormacle.tumblr.com/ Cormac Relf

    I’m a developer, and I’d love to do the boring boilerplate code quicker and more efficiently, so I have more time doing the fun stuff (implementing UI, of course!). I’d love to be able to write alloc/init’s with only 3 or 4 keystrokes! I already have the demo – it’s great, and I’d really make the most of a licensed version.

    Fingers crossed!

  • kay

    I’ve tried Typinator and TypeIt4Me but far prefer TextExpander’s UI. The form-filling feature highlighted in the recent review is really outstanding. Thanks for having this promotion.

  • Jmot

    Let’s just say that I have Elephantitus and a laptop on my ‘lap’ for too long is quite the woozy kadoozey. I am-a-needin some speed-typin, shortcut wielding goodness in my oversized world, and TextExpander is just the cure for that itch.
    I also only have one finger on each hand, so, uh, yeah, you know… TextExpander!!

  • Andi Suwito

    TextExpander is the most, I think, practical application to use on Mac OS X while we are typing a long text. Just typing in some acronyms then voilla, a beautiful long text we set it before comes up.

    I think I need it and I hope to win it. I work a lot in typing. And it makes me so hard to type in a long text. Therefore, I think, I need an assistant to help me when I do my typing. Thanks…

  • KGB

    As long as not all my favorite apps support the text replacement system of the OS I will be coerced to use TE! Hope to win.

  • Ju@nfer

    textexpander to expand my knowledge of coding! nah im just poor and cant afford the license

  • http://www.januarius.net Pete Januarius

    Because I hate typing
