Just click on the Add button to begin creating your own templates. This will also help you understand what you can do with this nifty little extension.

The use of https: and what gets sent to our servers can be confirmed using Chrome developer tools but there isn't a great non-technical way to demonstrate this. However, all communication with our servers is encrypted (via https:), our shortcut database is encrypted, and shortcut text has an additional layer of encryption to provide even better security and privacy.

In the next few weeks we will also use the server data to allow sharing specific shortcuts with others (added features, but those that don't sign up can again use our product without registration, and in offline mode). This is used to ensure if users who wipe cookies, don't lose all of their shortcuts (a non-technical user can also try this as well, both online or without an offline without an Internet connection). Shortcut and shortcut text are stored on our server to provide durable backups, since your local storage is erased if the extension is uninstalled. Keystrokes on websites never leave a user's computer. You can prove this to non-technical users by expanding shortcuts while the computer is offline. The expansion of shortcuts happens locally on a user's own computer, without communication with Magical. Founder of Magical - Auto Text Expander here.
