Text snippets seem straightford. However, I tried creating a snippet which enters today’s date in the format yyyy-mm-dd. One hour later, still defeated after trying everything. Why so opaque?

I overall really like Rocket Typist and use it about every hour when on phone, especially the code feature, which is very powerful.
Enjoyable features:
- code to use JavaScript
- hold down on keyboard to move cursor
- option to show snippet suggestions above keyboard while typing
Lacked features:
- toggle off auto-capitalization at start of sentence
- toggle off double-space making a period
- toggle on auto-expand when finishing input (preferably togglable for individual macros)
- toggle for "All Snippets" category to default to eg Code, rather than Plain Text
- expand macro from start of word, rather than needing word-breaks on both sides
- option to search snippets by both abbreviation and content, but only use abbreviations in snippet suggestions area above keyboard
Bugs:
- when Rocket Typist keyboard is active, moving the cursor through text auto-expands matching macros
- the JavaScript code is not programmatically hygienic, so it can be unpredictable with complex macros (for dev: look up how Racket (a Lisp) does macros; it's cleaner)
- toggling off haptics doesn't work
- if in Snippet Preview view, when creating new macro it still starts in Snippet Preview, rather than default view

This is a great app if you want to save a ton of time at a very reasonable price.
I probably save hours each week using snippets/Rocket Typist.
If you don’t know, what snippets are you need to learn about them ASAP :)
