How To Set A Shortcut

  1. Open Settings → Keyboard Shortcuts.
  2. Click the recorder beside the action you want.
  3. Press the key combination you want to use.
  4. Test it outside Chronoid to make sure it does not conflict with another app.

To remove a shortcut, click the recorder and clear it.

  • Assign Open Report if you review reports often during the day.
  • Assign Toggle Tracking if you regularly pause tracking for private or off-the-clock work.
  • Assign Toggle Pomodoro Timer if you start focus sessions throughout the day.

Notes

  • Global shortcuts must be unique enough to avoid conflicts with macOS or other apps.
  • Chronoid records these shortcuts immediately, so changes take effect as soon as you finish recording them.
