Checked against Figma’s documentation (Figma Design, desktop app (installed build 126.9.11). Figma Help Center articles, checked 2026-10-06. Figma has no single shortcut page on the web (the full list lives in-app under Help > Keyboard shortcuts), so each shortcut was taken from the help article that covers that feature. Bundle ID read from the installed Figma.app Info.plist.):

The same keys on your iPhone
Remolo turns your iPhone into a panel of buttons for your Mac. This set switches on by itself when Figma is in front, so the keys you use most are one tap away — no reaching across the desk.

With the next Remolo update you’ll add this set with one tap from this page. Until then, build it in Buttons → Edit, or start from the ready-made profiles in Remolo’s gallery. Button profiles are part of Remolo Pro .
