TextExpander is most useful when it’s available for text entry everywhere, as it is on Mac OS X. Given the current restrictions of the iOS, it’s not possible to make TextExpander touch work that way. We’ve focused on making TextExpander touch work well for composing text, then sending it directly to Mail, Twitter clients, or via copy & paste to any other application.
It is possible for other iOS applications to offer TextExpander functionality. When a TextExpander touch user uses an application which supports the TextExpander engine, their snippets will expand when they enter their abbreviations in that application.
We believe this is a win-win for both TextExpander touch and for iOS application developers. Having additional applications with integrated TextExpander functionality makes TextExpander touch more useful on iOS devices. Applications which support the TextExpander engine make text entry easier for their users.
