## Reviews

### "One of the most important tools in my arsenal as an entrepreneur" — 5.0/5

> **Paul** | *6 September 2025* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Time saving to the max. It keeps everything for me and makes my life so much easier. I can categorize canned text responses and I can add as many as I need. Love that I can use links and RTF in my responses, too. Works every time.
> 
> **Cons**: No mobile app, could be awesome if I had a synched mobile app. They updated the app recently (as of this review) so I can no longer complain about the Edit option being laborious to select. Now there's a preview pane with an easy to click edit button. I have no other issues with the app.
> 
> I've been using it for well over two years without issue. It stores everything I need. It's the most satisfying and efficient tool I own. It would be very difficult to live without.

-----

### "Worst customer service" — 1.0/5

> **Josep** | *24 October 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The tool itself is easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: Customer support and the inability to resolve bugs efficiently.
> 
> I reported an issue over 5 months ago. The company was sold in the meantime, and I reported the issue again after that. It’s now been more than 2 months since my follow-up, and I’m still waiting for a solution — and that’s only because I had to remind them again. I have an annual membership, and while the tool itself is useful, the customer support has been extremely disappointing.

### "Exactly what I have been wanting" — 5.0/5

> **Jim** | *10 March 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Typedesk is exactly what I have been looking for a while. It is easy to set up and I keep on learning new things to do with it.
> 
> **Cons**: I can't wait for this to become available on my Android.
> 
> While I don't have a lot of boilerplate text I type repeatedly, I do have small things like my email address and a phrase or two I repeat all the time. Typedesk does save me time from these small repetitive typing tasks.

### "Very disappointed \!" — 1.0/5

> **Steve** | *13 June 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: At the begining the interface was looking and the promise was great : android app was coming and other great stuff.
> 
> **Cons**: No update (no android app), no new features since 2y, no response from the support team, very disappointed. I should never migrate from TextExpander to Typedesk. Definitely a bad app and a bad team.
> 
> Good if you stay stuck in 2022. I wanted to import my canned response : you must send a CSV to the team but they never answer \!

-----

### "Not great, especially if you need support" — 1.0/5

> **Thomas** | *5 February 2025* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We can create unlimited custom email templates
> 
> **Cons**: Syncing of edits is not working if you have several users. Software too often "not responding." No support if things don't work.
> 
> For one user, it works ok - syncing edits from the desktop version to your online version takes ages and often is not working.
