Send custom messages with a trigger. Want to quickly type out the current date in a specific format? Or do you want your emojis to replace your triggers? You can do it all cross platform with espanso but now on android too with this app!
Update: 7/18/2025
I've decided that I will only update the app once every 6 months. This is due to increased workload from my studies and due to my career goals. This project does not align with the career I want to pursue and therefore I no longer want to spend hours coding for android. I believe this app is now feature complete and has achieved it's original goals. What we have achieved so far,
- Free and open source forever.
- Provides unlimited unrestricted expansions.
- Supports most of essential espanso features including forms.
- Uses no internet permissions.
- Provides a way to keep your config files in sync with desktop espanso program. See #55
The app will surely receive updates for all major android releases. Thank you for using the app and all the stars :D
Espanso configuration YML files will take a few tries to parse correctly. Try removing some matches, and make sure it's compliant with the YML specs. Some working examples can be found here. Please also note that only the following extensions are supported -> date, clipboard, random and echo. Finally, note that not all espanso/rust chrono date time formats are supported. Supported formats are,
- %Y, %m, %b, %B, %h, %d, %e, %a, %A, %j, %w, %u, %D, %F, %H, %I, %p, %M, %S, %R, %T, %r
You can further customize date time formats by referring to the C# DateTime.ToString() method documentation from Microsoft.
Clipboard extension will not work on android 10 or higher due to security measures introduced by google. However a workaround was found at issue: #35 and should work on all devices after v7.1.0
Note: I have not tested this app on android versions below 12.
Starting with v7.0.0 forms support has been added. Multi-line, choice & list have been added. Note that everything under "Using Forms with Script and Shell extensions" is not supported in the document: https://espanso.org/docs/matches/forms/
