Macro Text v1.0.0 is officially live!
May 3, 2026
We are incredibly excited to announce the first public release of Macro Text! This extension was born out of a simple need: to make repetitive typing a thing of the past. Whether you're a developer, a support agent, or just someone who sends a lot of emails, Macro Text is designed to save you hours of work every month.
Key Features in v1.0.0
- Smart Shortcuts: Define quick keywords like
/sigor/greetand watch them expand instantly into full templates. - Dynamic Macros: Go beyond static text. Use
{time}for automatic date insertion and{cursor}to control exactly where you start typing. - Interactive Forms: Need to fill in the blanks? Create snippets that pop up a dialog for names, dates, or custom options as you type.
- Math Evaluator: Perform arithmetic calculations directly in your text fields using the
{= expression}macro. - Privacy First: No accounts, no cloud, no tracking. Your snippets stay 100% local to your browser.
This is just the beginning. We have big plans for future updates, including more complex macro logic and shared snippet libraries. Thank you for joining us on day one!
