Started using aText after Text Expanded moved to an obscenely expensive subscription model. Can't complain. It works perfectly.

Pros:

Works as advertised

Cons:

Randomly stops expanding text once in a while. I have to restart it and it'll work fine.

I love aText, been a user for years. Solid app and a great price. Would be so good to get my text snippets on to iOS too.

I've been using aText for years and it's so freaking useful. Addresses, phone numbers, dates and code snippets. A must have

Was totally thinking about this type of solution the other day, since I love vim and snippets with coding, why not apply that to the rest of my typing activities?

A great replacement for the horrible business model of TextExpander

Pros:

Much cheaper then textexpander

Cons:

none I can think of

Not a whole lot to add. No subscription necessary -- just a one-time purchase. Great product.

Pros:

Simple and straightforward. Does its one job really well.

Cons:

There are some (rare) occasions where a webpage's content is secure and aText is disabled.

What are the superior sides against Mac os built-in function?

A highly pimped version of an already awesome native MacOS feature… Interesting <3

I’ve been using aText for years and really like it but have to say I also love Alfred’s text expander because it also syncs seamlessly across macs.
