Pocket Tunes provides a way to enter many of the commands and preferences with just one press of a key or entry of a graffiti character. Want to start your track playing? Enter the letter 'P' and Pocket Tunes starts playing. Need to stop the track? Enter 'Z'
This is just two examples of shortcuts you you can use to quickly and efficiently enter commands or launch preference windows in Pocket Tunes.
Below is a list of all the shortcuts and what action is associated with them. Most work primarily when Pocket Tunes is the active application but a few also work in the Pocket Tunes Console that you can pop up when you are in another application. (see this article for more information on the Pocket Tunes Console).
Listed first are some of the more frequently used commands, then a list of commands for the five way button and finally an alphabetical list of all the shortcut commands.
