These 6 shortcuts will be appreciated by every iOS developer.
The iOS department in GoodRequest works on projects such as Tipsport, ZSE drive, Nehnutelnosti.sk or Bistro.sk - food via the Internet. These are really useful applications used by thousands of people. However, large projects require a large "skill". Where possible, we simplify or streamline our work. We will share our iOS tips with you.

What programming shortcuts do we use daily?
Quickly open anything in Xcode
SHIFT + CMD + O opens a window similar to spotlight, where you can search for things like specific files by name, function, method, and variable.
Move between words without using the mouse
Option + <-, Option + -> moves the cursor to the beginning of the current or previous word. If you also hold SHIFT, you can also mark the word.
Open the object library in the Storyboard
The shortcut SHIFT + CMD + L opens a window with all the elements that can be dragged and pasted into the design.
Take a picture of the simulator screen
Use the shortcut CMD + S to take a screenshot of the simulator screen.
Disable or enable all breakpoints
When you are debugging a lot and using breakpoints, you can easily disable/enable all of them with CMD + Y shortcut.
Show or hide software keyboard in simulator
In simulator you can show/hide software keyboard with CMD + K shortcut, but you need to connect hardware keyboard with Shift + CMD + K first.
