Move through your inbox twice as fast using Superhuman Mail shortcuts on Desktop ⚡
The first shortcut to remember is Cmd+K (Mac) or Ctrl+K (Windows). This opens Superhuman Command, your master control to find and take any action.
You'll see each action’s shortcut on the right, making it easy to learn as you go. Once you've memorized a shortcut, you can use it instantly from anywhere in your inbox — no need to open Superhuman Command.
You can also learn shortcuts by hovering over any button in Mail.
💡 Tips:
No need to memorize every shortcut at once. Start with the actions you do most — like C to compose or / to search your inbox — and build from there!
