Use Keyboard Shortcuts

Shortcuts for adding, converting, saving and cancelling on a Mac or an iPad with a keyboard.

Convertable has the same shortcuts on every platform. On a Mac they are in the menu bar. On an iPad with a keyboard, hold ⌘ to see the list.

Steps

Open Convertable on a Mac, or an iPad with a keyboard.

Press the shortcut you need from the table below.

What You Get

ShortcutWhat it does
⌘OOpen…: add files
⌘↩Convert
⌘SSave… the converted files
⌘. or EscCancel Conversion
⌘,Settings…: open the Account tab

On a Mac, the Help menu has Request Support, Privacy Policy and Terms Of Service. On an iPad, the same links are in the Account tab.

If It Doesn't Work

  • A shortcut is greyed out: it only works where it makes sense. Convert needs files on Home. Save… needs finished results. Cancel Conversion needs a running batch.
  • Nothing happens on iPhone: shortcuts need a hardware keyboard.

Limits

  • You cannot change the shortcuts.
