I want more shortcuts in view
MK.2: 15 keys, no dials. Consider this layout when visible shortcuts matter most. The stand is removable; its tilt is fixed.
Stream Deck MK.2Keys and dials: practical differences
Dials add rotation and press input. The plugin must provide compatible Encoder actions; a dial does not turn every shortcut into a continuous adjustment or add features to the application.

I want to adjust values with dials
Stream Deck +: 8 keys, 4 push dials and a touch strip. Consider it when your plugin provides the dial actions you need. It has fewer visible keys than MK.2.

Try compatible actions on your current device and organise pages and folders first. You do not need a different model if yours already covers your tasks.
Keys run configured actions. Organize shortcuts into pages and folders before deciding how many physical keys you need. A shortcut only works if the application supports it and has the required focus.
- Our Photoshop 0.3.1 catalog documents keys for save and undo, plus dials for brush size, zoom and a configurable shortcut. This describes declared support, not a measured demonstration.
- A dial can send shortcut steps. Step size and results depend on the action and Photoshop; we make no unmeasured time-saving or precision claims.
- Check the result in a test document. Keep the application focused, avoid active text fields and verify your keyboard layout. A shortcut that fails on the keyboard will also need fixing here.
Before buying
Documented plugin requirements: Stream Deck 6.9+, Windows 11+ or macOS 13+, installed Photoshop and compatible shortcuts. Adobe software is not included. Read installation and configuration before buying hardware.
Check the operating system, Stream Deck version, application and each plugin’s requirements. Dial actions need a device with dials; key compatibility does not guarantee every feature.
