Keyboard shortcuts

Replay, previous line, adjust delay, toggle translation—no pausing to reach for the mouse.

Heard a line you didn’t catch and want to replay it or jump back? Shortcuts are fastest—your hands never leave the keyboard.

Default keys

All of these use Alt (for example, Alt + A):

KeyAction
Alt + APrevious line
Alt + SReplay this line
Alt + DNext line
Alt + Q / ESubtitle delay: earlier / later
Alt + Z / XShow / hide primary / secondary subtitles
Alt + C / VSwap primary / secondary source and translation
Alt + LToggle subtitle reader
Alt + H / WDictation: hint / play from this word
Alt + F / G / MSpeaking: record / replay / monitor mic

“Play from this word” needs word-level timing. It works with YouTube auto-captions, subtitle enhancement, and Whisper subtitles.

Want your own keys

Customize them in the extension’s Shortcuts tab. Use combinations you’ll remember and can hit comfortably.

Tips

  • Subtitles out of sync with audio? Nudge with Alt + Q / E—you’ll be synced in no time.
  • Testing yourself? Hide translation with Alt + Z first, then reveal when you’re stuck.
