It works kind of like the Control key on a Windows PC, except it’s in a handier spot-typically on both sides of the space bar. That’s the Command key, and it’s the key to all the shortcuts listed here. Whether you’re using Mojave or Big Sur, MacOS has many shortcuts, but there are a few that everyone should know. Thanks to Apple’s integration of hardware and software, you’ll rarely have to reach for your mouse or trackpad once you learn to speak the language of the keys. If you’re not using keyboard shortcuts on your Mac, you’re missing out on a big part of the reason why so many people love Apple’s desktop operating system.
