About KeyClu

KeyClu is a macOS utility that displays keyboard shortcuts, trackpad gestures, and menu items for the currently active application. It is triggered by pressing the Command key twice and holding, and runs on macOS 11 or later for both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. The app is private by design, with no accounts, tracking, ads, or data sent off the user's device. Known limitations include potential failure to display shortcuts not listed in an app's menu, display of extra shortcuts hidden in an app's menu, and difficulty handling icon-based or hidden menu items.
