16 Essential keyboard shortcuts everyone should know using Continuum for phones

Continuum for phones is a fantastic new feature that Microsoft is including in Windows 10 Mobile. The feature allows you to transform your phone easily into a computer-like experience by using theMicrosoft Display Dock or Miracast to connect the handset to an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

Once you have set up Continuum, you can easily go to the Start screen to open and work on any Universal Windows app. Although, Continuum isn’t exactly the same experience like working with the desktop version of Windows 10, it’s very similar, and you can get a lot of work done when you’re not near to your main computer.

In addition to the familiar user interface and being able to work on the same Universal Windows apps, you can use on the desktop version of the operating system using Continuum, you can also get a lot of work done faster using keyboard shortcuts to navigate and perform different tasks.

As you probably already know, Continuum in Windows 10 Mobile supports many of the keyboard shortcuts you can use in Windows 10 for PC, but not every shortcut is supported. Here’s what is supported in the Continuum experience:

It’s worth pointing out that a few other Windows shortcuts may work as well, but we’re listing only the shortcuts officially supported in Windows 10 Mobile using Continuum. For example, Ctrl + Cand Ctrl + V shortcuts to cut and paste content work inside of apps, but they are not fully supported across Continuum in places like File Explorer (you cannot cut and paste files with these shortcuts, for example).
