- macOS users switching among multiple keyboard layouts
- Worth noticing
- If the current layout is outside a shortcut’s group, pressing it starts at that group’s first layout.
Field notes
A group is an ordered list of macOS input sources bound to a recorded shortcut; each press advances through that list and wraps. If the active source is not in the group, the shortcut selects its first item, while a one-item group selects it directly. The page says the app supports macOS 12 or later on Apple silicon and Intel, runs without a window or Dock icon, and passes keys through when deactivated.
