Shortkeys v5.0.0 🎉

A complete redesign and major feature update. Fully backward-compatible with v4 data — your shortcuts carry over automatically.

What's New

  • Completely redesigned settings page with a clean, modern UI
  • Command palette — click the icon or set a shortcut to search and trigger any action
  • Macros — chain up to 10 actions into a single shortcut with optional delays
  • 9 curated shortcut packs — Vim, Emacs, YouTube, Productivity, Developer, Reading, Tab Manager, Keyboard Power, Media Control
  • Groups — organize shortcuts into collapsible, renamable sections with bulk enable/disable and per-group site rules
  • 125+ built-in actions across 11 categories
  • Cloud sync with automatic local fallback when data exceeds sync quota
  • Shareable links — generate a URL to share shortcuts or groups with anyone
  • Community pack browser — discover and share packs at shortkeys.app
  • Usage analytics dashboard (local only, never shared)
  • Shortcut conflict detection — platform-aware warnings for browser default clashes
  • Undo/redo in the settings page
  • Guided onboarding wizard for new users
  • 25 built-in page scripts (highlight links, remove images, extract emails, and more)
  • Userscript import from Greasyfork and OpenUserJS
  • Dark mode following system preference
  • Tab group actions — group, ungroup, name, and collapse tab groups (Chrome)
  • Link hints — display letter hints over links, type to click (like Vimium)

Upgrade Notes

  • v4 → v5 is seamless. Same storage format, same shortcut data. No migration needed.
  • No new required permissions. tabGroups is optional and only prompted on first use. clipboardRead is also optional.
  • Documentation has moved from the GitHub wiki to shortkeys.app/docs

Packages

  • shortkeys-5.0.0-chrome.zip — Chrome/Edge (Manifest V3)
  • shortkeys-5.0.0-firefox.zip — Firefox (Manifest V2)
