FAQs

How many shortcuts can I add?

You can add as many as you like and sort them into groups. Most people group by project or by task, which keeps long lists easy to scan.

Can Shortcut Bar store text as well as files?

Yes. Snippets hold text you reuse often, such as signatures, addresses and standard replies, and supported snippets paste directly into the front app.

Does it change my files in any way?

No. It only holds shortcuts that point at your files and folders. Moving or deleting an item inside the app does not delete the original.
