With a few quick keystrokes, Katie’s TextExpander snippets create professional logs to track phone calls, client consultations, conferences, and meetings.

Both Katie and her Mac Power Users podcast co-host David Sparks are attorneys, making professional work tracking one of her specialities.

Katie Floyd developed this handy TextExpander/Day One template for her professional work. Here are five ways (and then some) to use TextExpander to make short work of journal templates in Day One. I have a plethora of quick Day One-specific snippets to help track fitness, time, reviews, and other personal bits of information I’ll want to draw on again in the future. With TextExpander’s potential in mind, the app becomes a natural fit for creating consistency, structure, and organization inside Day One. For mundane tasks like creating Markdown tables or for adding affiliate tags to the end of a link, TextExpander reigns supreme. Create a snippet such as contact and all of your contact information will hit the page. Say you need to provide your contact info at the end of an email. From short HTML snippets, to predefined Markdown tables, to affiliate tags, TextExpander is the king of text automation.įor the uninitiated, TextExpander uses customizable keystrokes to expand large amounts of text.

It has singlehandedly saved me more time than all other applications combined. Today, we’ll take a look at TextExpander. These three apps make short work of the mundane formatting and consistency I strive for in each Day One journal entry.Įxploring all three in the same post would be particularly overwhelming, just like a Google search of “Day One workflows” or “Day One snippets”. In my experience, the best apps for creating workflows, snippets, and quick forms are (in no particular order) TextExpander ( iOS/ Mac), Workflow, and Launch Center Pro. To maintain this structure, I rely on workflows, snippets, and short-form quizzes - actions that are quick, easy, and efficient so I can get back to what I was doing. Whatever my ailment, my journal needs structure to be effective. And within each review, I won’t stop before every single review has been edited and formatted in the same manner.

If I start a journaling practice - say, reviewing movies or TV shows - I have to review every movie I watch, or I have to review none of them. This couldn’t be more true for my personal journal. Be it perfect punctuation and Markdown formatting when jotting down quick notes or having consistent filenames in Finder, I am constantly striving for some sort of organizational utopia within my Mac. If you’re anything like me, you have a compulsive need to maintain consistency and uniformity in your everyday life. At this time we recommend using Day One Templates, and Apple Shortcuts app to insert templated content on-demand into Day One. You can still use the Text Expander Keyboard inside Day One, however there’s a limitation with this when using an external keyboard. Update: October, 2020: Day One no longer natively supports Text Expander in the iOS app.
