Keyboard shortcuts

Shortcuts are defined by the app’s menu commands. On a Mac they appear in the menu bar. On iPad the same commands are available with a hardware keyboard, but cannot be reassigned.

Command Menu Default Customisable
New Bookmark File ⌘B Yes (macOS)
New Tag File ⌘T Yes (macOS)
New Folder File ⌘F Yes (macOS)

Invoking any of these while Settings or Recently Deleted is showing switches back to All Links first, then opens the sheet.

Command Menu Default Customisable
Delete Bookmark Edit ⌘⌫ Yes (macOS)
Find Edit ⌥⌘F Yes (macOS)

Delete Bookmark is disabled unless a bookmark is selected, and is unavailable while Settings or Recently Deleted is showing.

Find moves focus to the sidebar’s search field.

as Gallery View ⌘2 No
Sort By ▸ Newest First View — —
Sort By ▸ Oldest First View — —
Sort By ▸ Name A-Z View — —
