We’re excited to introduce the new Date Picker Fill-in in TextExpander 8.4!
With Date Picker, you can choose any date — past, present, or future — from a visual calendar and insert it right into your Snippet as it expands. No more flipping between apps or checking your calendar. It’s perfect for scheduling appointments, referencing deadlines, sending reminders, and so much more.
Date Picker helps you:
-
Stay in your workflow by skipping manual typing and calendar checks
-
Add accurate dates with a simple click
-
Reduce errors and maintain consistency with precise date formats
Date Picker starts rolling out today! You’ll find it in the Fill-in dropdown of the Snippet Editor in the newest Mac and Windows app (version 8.4+), as well as in the web app and Chrome Extension.
Update your Mac or Windows app to version 8.4 so you can pick dates the easy way. Here’s how:
-
In the TextExpander desktop app, click Preferences in the left sidebar
-
Choose Update from the menu options
-
Click Check for Updates
-
If available, click Install Update
