TextExpander not working - TM 5.8 in iOS 7

[damonbrinson]

Just upgraded to iOS 7, and TextExpander stopped working in Time Master.  Version numbers:

iOS: 7.0
Time Master: 5.8
TextExpander: 2.1.1

There is a message in the TextExpander FAQs that says the SDK for iOS 7 changed, and many apps that worked under iOS 6 will not work under iOS 7 until the developers make some changes. I assume this is on the way, but wanted to post a note here to see if this was the problem, or if I should continue troubleshooting.

Thanks,

Damon

Hi Damon.

I can confirm this issue with iOS 7. We did update the TextExpander integration in v5.8, but unfortunately there's a brand new update from the TextExpander guys and it didn't make the cut.

TimeMaster v5.8.1, which contains some small bug fixes is currently under review and won't include a fix for that, but we'll try to fix this issue and submit a new update as soon as possible.

Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention.

Great to have TextExpander back after the 5.8.2 update. Thanks!

Hi
I've seen the posts of Damon regarding Textexpander.
I've just updated to ios 7 on my iphone 5.
I'm using Textexpander v 2.2.
I'm using Timemaster v 5.8.3

Textexpander is not working in Timemaster anymore.
Please help.

Thanks

Hi again,
I've received a reply from SmileSoftware (creators of TextExpander) on this topic.
They say as follows:-
In iOS 7 TextExpander and TextExpander supporting apps need to be allowed access to Reminders. Please go to the iOS Settings > Privacy > Reminders and make sure all your TextExpander supported apps, and TextExpander, are on that list, and turned on.

Please try expanding a snippet in the TextExpander Notes area as a baseline, then expand a snippet in TimeMaster. If it doesn't work, please try a quit and restart of both apps.

This worked for me.
Cheers
