Love Breevy. Love. But, the team at 16software has been missing in action for many many years. All attempts to reach anyone there is futile. the last suport post in their forums is from 2015. One needs to know what you are getting into if you use Breevy cause it has been on auto pilot for many years.
I’ll add, it is a Windows only product and the Mac keyboard at the top hints otherwise.
Breevy still rocks but there does not appear to be a company behind it and there hasn’t been in years.
