What is Phrase Express?
PhraseExpress is a versatile text expansion and autotext software that streamlines the process of inserting frequently used phrases, snippets, and boilerplate content into any application. Its customizable folder structure allows users to organize their text snippets and canned responses for quick access, which can be triggered by hotkeys or text abbreviations. The application's phrase menus can be pinned to the desktop, eliminating the need to memorize autotext shortcuts. As users type, the popup menu dynamically narrows down the phrase list to the desired snippet, enhancing productivity PhraseExpress supports integration with Firebird or Microsoft SQL servers, including Citrix/TerminalServer, enabling users to share phrase libraries across a company network. Additionally, phrases can be synchronized with other PhraseExpress installations, including versions for Apple Mac, iPhone/iPad, and Android devices, through cloud-based sharing The software's built-in Clipboard Manager provides quick access to earlier clipboard contents, while the Document Generator allows users to create entire documents based on a list of boilerplate templates with just a few mouse clicks. The Microsoft Outlook Add-In streamlines email replies by automatically filling in the salutation, including the recipient's name, and suggesting suitable answering templates based on the email topic PhraseExpress offers powerful macro functions that can inject dynamic content, such as date and time stamps or placeholders for manual input, into static phrases. These macros can also be used to launch programs or open documents, triggered by shortcuts. For example, typing "calc" may open the Windows calculator program, or pressing the hotkey CTRL-F8 may initiate a Google search query of a highlighted text on-the-fly The software's portable edition can be run from a USB thumb drive without installation, and sensitive data can be password-protected with AES encryption. PhraseExpress is available for Windows, and the Autotext App for Android provides the same productivity benefits on tablet or smartphone devices
