Starting today, Typlo's free tier includes 20 snippets, up from 5. Every feature remains unlocked. No catch.
Why 20?
Five snippets was enough to try Typlo. It was not enough to build a real workflow. Most people need a handful of email templates, a few code shortcuts, a couple of address fills, and some meeting response templates before text expansion clicks. That takes more than five.
Twenty gives you room to build something meaningful. Enough to cover your most-typed responses across work, personal email, and code. Enough to feel the difference text expansion makes before deciding whether you need unlimited.
What Changed
- Free snippet limit: 5 → 20
- All features: Still fully unlocked on free tier
- Existing users: If you had locked snippets (from importing more than 5), up to 20 are now automatically active
- Premium: Still unlimited snippets at $2/month billed annually
Everything Else Stays the Same
The free tier still includes every feature Typlo offers:
- Advanced variables (date, time, clipboard, cursor positioning)
- Custom Python and JavaScript variables
- Fill Form interactive input prompts
- Nested snippets
- Import and export (JSON, CSV, Excel, TextExpander)
- Categories and organization
- Local encryption (AES-256-GCM)
- Windows, macOS, and Linux support
- No account required
The only difference between Free and Premium is the snippet count. Twenty vs. unlimited. That is it.
For Existing Free Users
If you previously imported more than 5 snippets, some were locked. After updating to v1.3.16, up to 20 of your oldest snippets are now active automatically. No action needed on your part. The app will auto-update and unlock them.
