SmileOnMyMac (http://www.smileonmymac.com) has updated TextExpander, a macOS utility that lets users define abbreviations for frequently-used text strings and images, to version 6.1. The upgrade adds Portuguese localization as well as the ability to use fill-in snippets with Apple’s Dictation.
Now you can preview a snippet before expansion using the new Preview button in the snippet editor. The snippet editor also has improved drag and drop support.
TextExpander 6.1 requires macOS 10.10 or higher. It costs $40 annually or $7.96 monthly. Current TextExpander users receive a 50% lifetime discount on a “Life Hacker” plan. Users who purchased the utility after Dec. 1, 2015, can get three months on a Life Hacker plan.
