​
Advanced usage

​
Open URL then press keys

  1. Set Target URL (e.g., notion.so)
  2. Set URL Load Delay (e.g., 2000ms to let page load)
  3. Set your key sequence
  4. The URL opens, waits, then keys are pressed

​
Sequences with delays

Add delays between key presses when apps need time to respond: 
⌘A (select all)
   wait 100ms
⌘C (copy)
   wait 100ms
⌘V (paste)

​
Tips

  • Use exact matching — Shortcut commands are specific
  • Add delays if keys seem to be missed
  • Test in target apps — Some apps capture keys differently

Terminal Commands

Run shell commands instead.
