yKey helps you eliminate repetitive actions. Create shortcuts that perform an action or sequence of actions which can be launched by hotkey, menu, timer, event or USB. Save time, typing and hundreds of clicks everyday. Avoid carpal tunnel, do less and accomplish more.

yKey (formerly iKey) is an automation utility which can save you hundreds of keystrokes a day and save loads of your precious time.

yKey lets you create shortcuts which can run an action based on:a keyboard equivalentand/or an item of a menuand/or a programmed time/date. Avoid carpal tunnel, get more accomplished and have fun with iKey.

Commands
A command is the action, or series of actions, that you want iKey to perform. An example of a command is: Open Photoshop and start a new document.

Contexts
The context is from where your shortcut can be activated. Most commonly the context is set to universal so that it will work regardless of which application you are in. However you may wish to set a hotkey for use only in Photoshop, in this case the context would be set to Photoshop.

Launchers
A launcher is what activates your shortcut. Most commonly it is a hotkey or date time event. For example launch Safari by pressing option + s or have it load for you at 8:00 am each morning.

What's New Version 2.6:
[fix] Prevent crash when some calendar events occur (often appeared to be a crash when waking or a crash when open for a while).
[fix] Resize window commands now work again for recent macOS versions.
[fix] Fix some horizontal scrolling bugs and generally make the window scrolling actions more reliable.
[fix] Fix some image problems in the yKey Editor, particularly where some icons were flipped.
[mod] New name: iKey is now yKey!
[mod] Removed the need to run as an admin user, in line with modern security practices.
[mod] Improved the way yKey handles standard window buttons (like close, minimise, zoom / full screen).
[mod] Clean up registration menu items after registering.
[mod] yKey configuration is now saved in and loaded from a more standard system location. Previous configurations are migrated when starting this new version.
[mod] Preferences shared between editor and yKey engine are now organised better.
[mod] Lots of internal improvements and modernisation.
[mod] Updated code signing to Apple's latest requirements.
[new] Request to install as login item can now be suppressed if you don't want
to do this (you can still change your mind via the preferences).
[mod] Removed some stale web links (times change and so does the web).
[mod] Removed the "configure for all users" feature. Again, opening up the system to sharing configuration information amongst multiple users is no longer an acceptable practice in the modern security-conscious world. Configurations can still be shared by exporting and importing, but we all like to personalise our configurations anyway, don't we?
[mod] Removed editor support for auto-wake after sleep. OS X has not supported this since OS X 10.5.
[mod] Removed support for converting iKey v1 preferences since v1 was replaced over a decade ago.
[mod] Removed support for .Mac service backup "quick picks" since Apple has retired the .Mac service.

Requirements: Intel, 64-bit processor OS X 10.5 or later
