Funky For Mac

Even though it is quite simple to switch between the standard function keys and the feature keys on the top row of your Mac's keyboard, it would probably be a lot easier to have them toggled on automatically when you need them to.

By default, you can enable the standard function keys by checking the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" option in the Keyboard preference pane in your Mac's System Preferences. Afterward, you can still access the special features on the function keys by holding down the Fn key.

However, having the standard function keys enabled only for specific apps would be a better solution and would help you save lots of time if you need them regularly throughout your work day.

Funky is a free and unobtrusive macOS utility designed to operate in the background and automatically toggle on the standard function keys either for a list of apps or the currently active application.

Once launched on your Mac, Funky will add a status bar item which displays the current status of the functions keys by switching between two icons: a clear one for the feature function keys and a dark one for the standard function keys.

Via Funky's status bar menu you can also toggle on the default function keys for the current app and access the app's Preferences.

The Preferences window enables you to set a custom global keyboard shortcut for toggling the function keys for the current app, and to set it to start automatically on system login.

Moreover, Funky's Apps Preferences tab makes it simple to create a list of all the apps for which the standard function keys will be toggled on.

Here you can also add a custom path to a binary of your choice via the button available at the bottom of the window.

Funky is a user-friendly app created to boost your daily productivity by automatically enabling the standard function keys in every app you need them toggled on.
