Why Use LazyKey?

Standard Windows shortcuts require "hand gymnastics"—holding Ctrl while reaching for another key. LazyKey simplifies this to a single tap, doubling your input efficiency for repetitive tasks.

Intelligent Remapping

When the "Purple Glow" is active, specific keys bypass their normal typing function and trigger system-level commands. The rest of your keyboard remains unaffected.

Safety Feature

Pressing S immediately toggles the software OFF, returning you to normal typing mode instantly.
