Questions about this workflow
What shortcut should I use?
Use whatever shortcut your time tracker supports. Common ones are Ctrl+Shift+T or Cmd+Shift+T. Notis sends the exact key combination you specify.
What if I do not have a time tracker?
You can use this with any tool that responds to keyboard shortcuts: text expanders, task managers, or notification systems. Describe what you want and Notis triggers it.
Can I add a delay, like wait 30 seconds before starting the timer?
Yes. Describe it: 'Wait 10 seconds before triggering the shortcut' and Notis will pause before sending it.
