# Keyboard Shortcuts

Whisk is a native macOS app and supports common macOS shortcuts including Command - S to save, Command - V to Paste, Command - Comma to open Preferences, and so forth. This documentation only reflects keyboard shortcuts which are unique to Whisk.

Most keyboard shortcuts can be discovered in Whisk's menu. If a keyboard shortcut does not exist for a menu item, you can customize and add them via the System Preferences Keyboard Pref Pane (opens new window).
