Toggle Mode (Shortcut Control)
Sometimes you want full control over when snippets trigger. Toggle Mode lets you easily disable or re-enable snippet shortcuts with just a click.
✅ Enable All / Disable All
Use the global “Enable All” or “Disable All” button at the top of your snippet board to control all shortcuts in one click.
- Enable All: Reactivates every snippet’s trigger.
- Disable All: Turns off all triggers — great for meetings or focus mode.

You can now save time and transfer your snippets between devices with the Export and Import JSON buttons.
📤 Export Snippets (Download JSON)
Click on the Export JSON button to download your existing snippets as a structured JSON file. This is great for backup or sharing setups.
