Hi! What can I help you with?
Small shortcuts. A little more time for you.
For the messages you know by heart—and would rather not type again.
Start with one message you send often: a customer reply, your email signature, or a link with instructions. Save it as a snippet with a title you can recognize later. Keep the wording clear so it is useful the next time someone asks.
Choose a unique shortcut you’ll remember, such as /thanks. Avoid everyday words that you might type in normal conversation. Use distinct shortcuts for different messages so each one expands into the reply you expect.
Place the cursor in a supported app or website and type your shortcut. Your saved reply appears where you are writing. Review the details before sending, and update the saved snippet whenever your usual answer changes.
Create your first snippetKeep related snippets in folders. On Mac, open the picker to search or browse when you don’t remember a shortcut.

Choose the setup that fits how you write, where you work, and the library you want to keep.
Use a text expander for everyday replies that follow a familiar pattern: answering a customer question, sharing a booking link, following up after a meeting, or sending your contact details. Save the repeated part as a snippet, then adapt the message to the person receiving it. Our practical text expansion examples can help you choose your first few snippets.
Yes. The desktop app and installed Chrome extension can use and edit locally available snippets offline. Free includes 10 snippets and 3 folders for local use, without an account. Creating an account and syncing require an internet connection. Start with a small local library if you only need your replies on one computer.
Desktop and Chrome use the same LazyBoard account system. Pro includes cloud sync, unlimited snippets, and unlimited folders. Your desktop library is stored on your computer; the extension stores its library in your browser profile. A local library is imported into an account only when you choose to do so. See the desktop and Chrome plan details before choosing a subscription.
No. The Chrome extension works independently. Open the extension and choose Open dashboard to create and manage your snippets. It is a useful starting point if you mainly write in browser editors. Choose a desktop app if you also want to try text expansion in desktop applications, and test your usual fields before moving a large library.
Mobile accounts, libraries, and purchases are separate from desktop and Chrome. Installing both does not automatically sync your phone’s snippets to your computer. If you already use the mobile keyboard, follow the mobile snippet import guide to transfer saved phrases into Desktop Library, and review the imported folders before you start using them.
Check that expansion is enabled, the shortcut matches exactly, and the app or website is not excluded. Chrome’s internal pages, password fields, and some complex editors do not support insertion. Try the same snippet in another supported field to narrow down the problem. Copy and paste remains available when direct insertion cannot be used.
