We appreciate the question, and it’s incredibly valid considering the length of our mobile beta. I’d love to share some context.
The biggest hurdle we’ve faced is delivering a seamless TextExpander experience within the limitations of third-party keyboard support, particularly on iOS. We’ve been testing different keyboard SDKs to overcome these platform-level roadblocks.
Rather than hold back until everything is “final,” we chose to develop in the open so customers like you can still use TextExpander on mobile while we continue to improve it.
That said, we also need to balance resources. The majority of our usage happens on desktops, so our team’s efforts are often focused there to continue delivering the features and improvements most of our customers rely on every day.
Still, we’re committed to making mobile better, and the ongoing beta is part of that commitment.
We truly appreciate your feedback and patience, and we’re working toward making TextExpander great wherever you type.
