# Keyboard shortcuts

Move through the feed, open posts, upvote and save without the mouse. The shortcuts work on computers, outside text boxes.

## In short

J and K move down and up the list, Enter opens the post, L upvotes it, B saves it, / jumps to search and Esc leaves a box or clears the focus. ? opens this page.

## Which keys can I use?

| Key | What it does |
|---|---|
| J / K | Move to the next or the previous post in the list |
| Enter | Open the post you are on |
| L | Upvote it |
| B | Save it to Saved |
| / | Jump to the search box |
| Esc | Leave a text box, clear the search, or clear the focus |
| ? | Open this page |

## Where do they work?

J, K, Enter, L and B work on lists of posts: Home, Explore, profiles and Saved. / and Esc work on every page. None of them act while the cursor is in a text box, so writing is never interrupted.

## Questions

**Do the shortcuts work while I'm typing?**
No. While a text box has the cursor, keys type as usual. Press Esc to leave the box, then the shortcuts work again.

**Can I turn them off?**
They only act on single keys pressed outside a text box, without Ctrl, Cmd or Alt, so they stay out of the way of everything else. There is no setting to turn them off.
