This guide outlines the fastest ways to bring Aircall Workspace to the foreground on Windows 11. You can use a pinned taskbar shortcut or create a custom keyboard shortcut. For the best responsiveness, adjust your background app settings.

Using a taskbar shortcut

This method is recommended because it is fast and requires no advanced configuration.

Steps:

  1. Open the Aircall Workspace application.
  2. In the Windows taskbar, right click the Aircall icon and select Pin to taskbar.
  3. Drag the pinned icon to the first position on the taskbar, directly after the Start button.
  4. Use Windows key + 1 to bring Aircall immediately to the foreground, even when minimized or behind other windows.

Creating a custom keyboard shortcut

You can define a specific key combination, such as Ctrl + Alt + A, to open Aircall instantly.

Steps:

  1. Locate the Aircall Workspace shortcut on your desktop.
  2. Right click the shortcut and select Properties.
  3. Go to the Shortcut tab.
  4. Click the Shortcut key field and press the letter A. Windows will automatically assign Ctrl + Alt + A.
  5. Select OK to confirm.
  6. Use this combination at any time to bring Aircall to the foreground.

Ensuring faster responsiveness

You can prevent Windows from placing Aircall in Deep Sleep mode, which can cause minor delays when using shortcuts.

Adjusting background app permissions helps Aircall open more quickly when triggered by a shortcut.

Steps:

  1. Open Windows Settings.
  2. Go to Apps then Installed apps.
  3. Find Aircall in the list, select the three dots, and choose Advanced options.
  4. Under Background apps permissions, select Always from the drop down menu.
