Profiles and templates
- 01
Open Edit
Choose Edit mode in the console. Select a saved profile or open the template library to add one.
- 02
Add from the library
Search by app, preview its verified actions, and add the template. Pinned Essentials stays a single shared profile.
1Search2AddTemplates give you an editable starting point for supported apps. - 03
Refine context rules
Match app, bundle ID, window title, or browser URL. Use more specific rules when one app needs different controls for different projects or sites.
Keys, pages, and workflows
- 01
Edit a key
Select a key, then set its title, subtitle, icon, accent, and action. Shortcut actions send documented macOS chords through the companion.
- 02
Use folders and pages
Add pages for larger profiles and point a folder key to another page. Folder navigation stays on the control device and is never sent to the Mac.
- 03
Build a workflow
Combine up to 12 safe launch, URL, and shortcut steps. Review the sequence before saving.
1Preview2ActionThe editor keeps action details next to the tactile preview.
Back up your work
- 01
Export JSON
Open Menu → Backup and export the current deck. Store the file somewhere private because it contains your deck configuration.
- 02
Import carefully
Review the source of any deck JSON before importing. Cueboard validates supported action types and technical safety limits.
