That happens to me every now and then with the CMD key, but it has completely solved the vast majority of my issues. One thing it won’t solve, of course, is keypresses that aren’t being detected – where you get nothing instead of a double character. As both my spacebar and CMD keys were affected, I initially found that it was blocking Spotlight (CMD-Space), but there’s a checkbox for an experimental feature to cure that, and it works for me. I’m no longer seeing any doubt-activations. I’ve been using it for a week now, and it has almost completely solved my issues. However, Unshaky is open-source with the code available for inspection on Github. If you tap the menubar icon, it shows you how many keypresses have been dismissed – and you can also open a live debugging window.Īccessibility apps are potentially very dangerous, especially ones which control keyboard usage, as they could easily be used to install a keylogger. The app allows you to either set a universal timeout, or to configure them individually for each key.
The delay is user-configurable, with the developer recommending you stick with the default unless it doesn’t solve the problem, and then try first 60ms and then 80ms.
It then registers each keypress and blocks any repeated press within the next 40 milliseconds. The app works by asking you to register it as an accessibility device. Unshaky is a simple Mac utility that monitors keyboard input, and then blocks anything it thinks is a double-press caused by a keyboard fault.
