It works flawlessly so far. I use it to reply to LinkedIn connection acceptances, insert my standard email signature in applications where I can't save it, and add social media footers like "follow me for..." Recently, I've been using it for frequently-used ChatGPT prompts. While some items are short enough to type quickly, the repetition adds up! As a founder with a background in process improvement engineering and project management, I love efficiency and time management tools. Regarding compatibility, I use Windows 10&11 and the Edge browser with this Chrome extension.

I love it, it is pretty simple to use.... I use it some times just when doing campaigns... I would like to have an option to pay one time and not monthly, since I use it a little bit, this way I could help with the support need it for this app thanks!

UPDATE: After my zoom session with Michel, I was able to get Typedesk working. I quite like the functionality. But we were only able to make it work by disabling ActiveWords. I've been using Activewords for more than 15 years. It is embedded in my daily routines. It will just be too inconvenient to be switching it on and off to use Typedesk. Thanks for your response, Michel. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I have been unable to get typedesk working for me after two weeks of trying. I'm quite computer literate and have been using textexpander programs for more than 15 years. Hope someone can help get me started. This looks so useful.
