# Knock

> Trigger Mac shortcuts with taps and gestures

Knock turns taps and gestures into shortcuts on a Mac. Users assign actions such as copying text, taking a screenshot, muting sound, locking the computer, or switching workspaces to gestures they can perform without opening a menu. App-specific mappings let the same gesture serve a different purpose depending on the application in use.

The app can also launch custom commands and Apple Shortcuts, making it useful for small routines that otherwise require several steps. Physical tap detection depends on compatible MacBook hardware, while Trackpad Tap Mode provides an alternative for other Macs. Users can choose the input method and actions that suit their device and everyday workflow.
