Use keyboard hotkeys
Paperman’s hotkeys work from any app, so you never have to open it to make a quick change.

⌥⌘P - Adjust Intensity (opens or closes the control center):
⌥⌘I - Intensity Up:
⌥⌘] - Intensity Down:
⌥⌘[ - Toggle Snooze:

Choose how long Snooze lasts
The Snooze hotkey snoozes Paperman for 5 minutes by default. In Settings → Hot Keys, next to Toggle Snooze for, pick 1, 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes. Press the hotkey again to end the snooze early.
Change a hotkey
Open Settings → Hot Keys. Click a hotkey to record a new key combination, or clear any hotkey you don’t use.
To turn all of Paperman’s hotkeys off at once, switch off Enable hot keys at the top of the Hot Keys tab.
