Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 9.8 Text Blaze stands out because its features are unmatched by other tools. It excels at what it’s designed to do: generating text from shortcuts. The possibilities for creating your text snippets are practically limitless. You can:
Winner in this category | 7.5 The core function that One Sec uses to make users more productive is a pause before opening the website. When I open websites I have defined, such as Twitter, a gray page with a countdown appears. During this period, I was reminded that I didn't want to spend so much time on Twitter and asked myself whether this was intentional or just a reflex out of boredom.

Performance Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Performance' aspect of each extension. | 9.7 Text Blaze performs exceptionally well. There is no need to save, so that updating your shortcuts is straightforward. The snippets load quickly, and the AutoPilot feature works seamlessly. Winner in this category | 9.5 In our test, we did not notice any delays or slowdowns due to the extension. |
Design Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Design' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 The user interface is clean and intuitive, making it easy to navigate and organize snippets. Winner in this category | 8.0 The user interface is clean and minimalist, and this also applies to the setup and settings. The extension offers an effective use of visual elements for taking a break by displaying a preset screen with a countdown. There would be potential for improvement here if the screen could be customized. |
Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 The free version is quite powerful, and there was no need to upgrade for us when using it. The premium version offers good value for money, especially for teams. It's worth the investment as it will save you a lot of time. Winner in this category | 9.2 The browser extension is completely free of charge. However, you only get a small number of functions. For anyone who only needs the basic function, this is unbeatable value for money. OneSec also offers an app with additional functions. At $4.99/month or $49.99/year, it also has a good price-performance ratio. |
Ease of Use Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Ease of Use' aspect of each extension. | 8.5 Setting up and using Text Blaze is straightforward. The web interface is user-friendly, and the snippets are easy to create and manage. The only minor downside is the initial account creation process. Basic tasks like adding text fields are super simple, but some of the more advanced features might take a bit of time to master. That said, it's definitely worth the effort because they'll save you tons of time in the long run. | 9.5 The installation process was quick and straightforward. This also includes the setup, which is very intuitive with clear step-by-step instructions. Everything is also well explained in the settings menu afterward, so everyone should be able to find their way around. ![]() Winner in this category |
