Ratings and Reviews
Good Shortcut Key Reminder App
I have saved any number of shortcut key cheat-sheets, but could never find them when I needed them. I bought this app so I could easily find shortcut key combinations like the ones for screen capture. Now I can go to Quick Shortcuts in the Dock and find the shortcut I want quickly. Shortcuts are nicely organized by app with an area for favorites too.
Helpful, but leaves me wanting a bit more...
This is a great idea for an app. I only wish it had a shot of they keyboard that would show at a glance what characters were changed when certain modifying keys were pressed (e.g., the command key, or option + command). Of course, this would only really be useful for finding special characters, but I think it'd be a great feature. (There was a great little application that used to do this: press whatever modifiers you want and the characters on a little representation of the keyboard would change accordingly.) I find the list view tedious. Nevertheless, I do appreciate that app-specific shortcuts are included.
Clean it up
There is no consistency with regard to font size and font case.
- Right side Menu bar items mixed with either Title case or lower case
- Images of keys that are to be pressed are depicted inconsistently as either upper or lowercase without mention if (shift) needs to be used.
- Shortcut descriptions are not consistent in font size.
- THERE ARE TYPOS EVERYWHERE
- Shortcut titles are also not consistent and messy.
It's almost as if you just copy/pasted these commands from different sources without doing due diligence and putting effort into the final "clean" release. Yes it is functional, no it doesn't "Look" good and can cause some confusion as well.
Recommended additions: Ability to sort
