App shortcuts
A faster way to use the apps you live in
Keyboard shortcuts are the single biggest productivity upgrade most people never make. The average professional spends two hours a day switching between mouse and keyboard. Learning even ten shortcuts per app claws most of that back. This reference covers ten of the apps where the time savings add up fastest, with the keys mapped for both Mac and Windows.
Productivity and email
Gmail keyboard shortcuts let you archive, reply, search and compose without leaving the keyboard. Google Calendar shortcuts jump between day, week and month views in a single keystroke and let you create events on the fly. Combined with Google Docs shortcuts and Google Sheets shortcuts, the entire Google Workspace becomes a keyboard-first environment.
Team collaboration
Slack keyboard shortcuts are essential if you're in Slack for more than an hour a day. Jump to any channel, mark everything read, edit your last message, or open threads without touching the trackpad. Notion shortcuts turn the slowest part of Notion, the block menu, into a series of fast keystrokes for headings, lists, toggles and to-dos.
Design and development
Figma keyboard shortcuts are the difference between dragging frames around and actually shipping designs. VS Code shortcuts are essential for any developer or technical marketer working in code. Both apps reward muscle memory more than almost any other tool.
AI tools
ChatGPT keyboard shortcuts and Claude keyboard shortcuts are newer to most people's workflows but worth learning early. Starting a new chat, copying the last code block or response, regenerating, and toggling the sidebar are all faster from the keyboard than the cursor. Useful for anyone running multiple AI conversations across a working day.
Mac and Windows in one place
Modifier keys are the main difference between Mac and Windows shortcuts. Most Mac shortcuts that use ⌘ Cmd map directly to Ctrl on Windows. ⌥ Opt on Mac becomes Alt on Windows. This tool swaps the labels automatically when you switch OS, so you can switch operating systems mid-session and the shortcuts update in place. Useful if you work across both platforms or if you're trying to share a keyboard shortcut cheat sheet with a teammate on the other OS.
Print as a cheat sheet
Every app view in this reference is print-friendly. Hit the Print / Save as PDF button (or use your browser's print dialog) to generate a one-page keyboard shortcut cheat sheet for any app, on either OS. The print stylesheet keeps the visual keyboard, the active key highlights and the shortcut descriptions, and strips out the navigation chrome. Useful for sticking next to a monitor or sharing across a team.
