Button Shortcuts is a desktop app that makes it easy to learn keyboard shortcuts for your current program. Just double-tap β.
I tried to try the app, it solves a big pain point for me and it's an amazing design, but the subscription payment model is just too much, without even being able to try premium features.
EDIT: It's also really add to find settings/in-app purchases.
EDIT2: also, how do I go back from settings?

@ggsimm I was excited to use this to improve my productivity, but apparently you need to have a premium subscription in order to execute the commands you found. $7.99/month is too much for me.

EDIT: @ggsimm @muurtegel We updated pricing to $15/year. Thanks for the feedback
----------------------------------
@ggsimm How about we add a free trial period?
You can use command+, to toggle settings. Thereβs also an ellipses above the top right corner to toggle it with the mouse. Iβll update it to be more visible :)

@ggsimm @muurtegel You might feel differently after trying it out. The execute feature is like a productivity wormhole, but without the dangers of folded spacetime. How would you feel about a trial?

@ggsimm @muurtegel Hey guys, we just added the free trial into the app. If you'd like to check it out, go ahead and purchase the Power UI - it will tell you at the end that there's a one week free trial. It automatically renews after that, so be sure to manage it if you don't wanna continue after the trial is up.

wait... $8 a MONTH? I figured it was $7.99 to unlock the whole thing as a one-time payment. That's a preposterous amount for this functionality. I would gladly pay $8 to unlock the features, or hell even $15/year. You're essentially charging people $100/year. For that, I get 2TB of dropbox, or Amazon Prime, or a year of Netflix.
I don't mean to go on a rant, I'm sure you guys are nice, and you built a gorgeous application, so good job on that. Just please rethink your business model. People are drowning in monthly subscription models nowadays.

@jucaslames No worries about the βrant.β Like we said, telling us what you donβt like helps us improve faster, so thanks!
To your point, weβre constantly rethinking things and already based on feedback will introduce a free trial (thereβs a $2.99/mo option too in case you didnβt see it). Hopefully it makes the value of the features more clear. Weβve also got some things cooking in the pipeline that will be added to the tiers soon to make them even juicer.

@jucaslames We actually just implemented the free trial right now. There's no messaging in the app yet, but if you go ahead and purchase the Power UI you will get a one week free trial. It will automatically renew afterwards though, so you can cancel it before then if you don't want to continue using the Power UI.

Node PatrolThis already exists as a service, it's called Pretzel and it has over 1k upvotes on PH. Can you kindly explain how your product is different?

@michael_mcdonald1 Button's actually been around since before Pretzel. Cheatsheet is the real dinosaur though.
Button is focused on you, so we currently have features like favorites and knowns so you can choose what to see first and what you don't want to see. Our content library is also huge with about 150 programs, so it's more likely we'll have the information you're looking for.
You can expect Button to get more personal in the future :)
