Using Sunflare

Keybinds

Keybinds let you control voice and video from the keyboard: mute, deafen, camera, screen share, push to talk, and the game overlay. In the desktop app, most of them work even while you're in a game.

Setting a keybind#

  1. Click the shortcut next to an action (it says Unbound if nothing is set).
  2. Press the key you want, holding Ctrl, Shift, or Alt too if you like.
  3. That's it. It's saved straight away.

Keybinds are saved on each device separately, since every keyboard and setup is different.

Push to TalkHold to talk, release to mute again.No: only while Sunflare is focused

Global keybinds on desktop#

In the desktop app, actions marked as global work system-wide: press the key while a game or any other app has focus and Sunflare still responds. In the browser, every keybind only works while the Sunflare tab is focused, because websites aren't allowed to listen to the keyboard in the background.

Choosing good keys#

Example setup for gaming
Toggle MuteCtrl + Shift + M
Toggle DeafenCtrl + Shift + D
Toggle Game OverlayCtrl + Shift + O

Keys are recorded by their physical position, so a bind keeps working if you switch keyboard layouts.
