KeyCue is a Mac tool designed to help you boost up your productivity. With its help, you can get easy access to all of the default shortcut keys from your system plus the hotkeys for handling the third-party programs that are being installed on your computer.

The first thing you need to do after installing KeyCue on your Mac is to allow it to control your system. You can do that by launching the System Preferences tool, going to Security & Privacy -> Privacy, and selecting the KeyCue item from the Accessibility panel. Afterwards, you can launch the utility and start using the listed global hotkeys.

A good aspect is the fact that the program also provides you with an ability to add your own shortcut keys. Simply go to Settings -> Custom, add the utility that requires the use of the preferred shortcut key, enter the command info, and click the "OK" button. The macro will then be added to the KeyCue's main screen.

Another advantage is that the utility is packed with a complete help guide which might come in handy to people who are new to this type of programs.

To conclude, I can't find a single bad thing to say about KeyCue. It's effective, simple to handle, and affordable. You should definitely give it a try if you're looking for an easy way to increase your productivity while working on your Mac.
