For more details, see our Placeholder page. For example, you can add “Dear ?name,” to a snippet, and when you attempt to insert it, QuickKey will automatically prompt you for what name you want to insert. Powerful Placeholder Support - QuickKey supports up to 5 unique placeholders per snippet, so you can insert custom text in the middle of a snippet at the time you insert it. QuickKey won’t replace them unless you explicitly ask it to. Since QuickKey expands text within it’s own window, instead of inside your document, you are free to use shortcuts that are easy to remember. As such, it respects Mac App Store sandboxing rules, meaning it has zero access to anything you are typing or writing, and doesn’t monitor your key strokes in any way, except to look at the shortcut you type into the app (ONLY when typing into the app, not in any other app). Respects Your Privacy - QuickKey is the first text expansion app designed to comply completely with Mac App Store guidelines for security and privacy. Just use a global keyboard shortcut to bring up QuickKey, then type a snippet’s shortcut, and QuickKey will automatically paste the full snippet into your document. Once you define some shortcuts & snippets in QuickKey, it’s a snap to insert them. QuickKey saves you time, by allowing you to type entire messages, snippets of code, or long paragraphs with just a couple keyboard shortcuts.
