Shortcuts

In the following list, MOD is the shortcut modifier. By default, it's (left) Alt or (left) Super.

It can be changed using --shortcut-mod. Possible keys are lctrl, rctrl, lalt, ralt, lsuper and rsuper. For example:

# use RCtrl for shortcuts
scrcpy --shortcut-mod=rctrl

# use either LCtrl+LAlt or LSuper for shortcuts
scrcpy --shortcut-mod=lctrl+lalt,lsuper

Super is typically the Windows or Cmd key.

3. Finally, release MOD.

All Ctrl+key shortcuts are forwarded to the device, so they are handled by the active application.
