Review shortcut usage

Usage reports how often assigned keyboard hotkeys and Text Shortcuts are actually used. It combines summary totals, a yearly contribution calendar, and details for a selected day.

Local usage identity

The current settings panel loads analytics for the local cmdOS user unless another user identifier is supplied by the calling surface.

Shortcut-focused

These analytics measure assigned hotkeys and Text Shortcuts; they are not a general browser screen-time report.

Theme aware

Calendar intensity colors adapt to the active dark or light cmdOS theme.

#2

Read the usage summary

The summary cards calculate four totals from the loaded shortcut activity.

Total uses

The combined number of recorded hotkey and Text Shortcut activations.

Hotkeys

Recorded activations made with assigned physical keyboard combinations.

Text Shortcuts

Recorded activations made with assigned text triggers.

Active days

The number of calendar days containing at least one recorded activation.

#3

Explore activity by date

The contribution calendar uses intensity levels to show how shortcut activity changes across the selected year.

Navigate years

Move to the previous or next year, or return to the current date using the calendar controls.

Select a day

Choose a calendar cell to load the detailed usage recorded for that date.

Intensity

Higher activity receives a stronger usage color; zero-activity dates use the base level.

#4

Inspect a selected day

Daily Usage Details explains the shortcut events behind the selected calendar cell.

Selected date

The detail panel follows the date currently selected in the contribution calendar.

Recorded triggers

Review the hotkey and Text Shortcut activity available for that day rather than relying only on the yearly total.

No activity

Dates without recorded usage remain valid selections and show an empty daily result.
