- Rated 4 out of 5by NaCl, 4 years agoTo the reviewers calling people idiots: if using the add on isn't intuitive its just as bad as having a non working add on. To access the activation options you need to press the ">" on the left for each short cut.
Adding some simple tutorial would have cleared up most of the bad reviews. How can you blame people for messing up when every other add on gives you an introduction? Anyway, great add on but read the github and make sure to activate the shortcut. - Rated 1 out of 5by alkapwn3d, 4 years agonot working. running v89.0.6
edit: 3 years later still doesnt work - Rated 5 out of 5by Luke Alexander, 4 years agoTo people who are saying this doesn't work: once you are on the 'Manage Your Extensions' page, you just need to click the little gear button near the top, and then click 'manage extension shortcuts' at the bottom of the pop-up menu. The description should perhaps be updated, but the add-on works. Make sure what you want is on the list though; and this add-on can't override existing shortcuts.
- Rated 1 out of 5by rom85, 4 years agoIn Firefox 89 there is just no option in the addon's preferences to add a shortcut. Doesn't work.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Ashish, 4 years agoThis extension works but the many people that are leaving 0 stars don't have a single brain cell to figure it out. Like Sahil who said alt+left did not work, I tried it and it worked fine. If you can't figure out how to use tech due to your own stupidity don't bother leaving negative reviews

- Rated 5 out of 5by harl windwolf, 4 years agoSadly, most of the reviews saying that Shortkeys isn't working for them, are prime examples of people who haven't read (or don't understand) the extension's description as well as its documentation (on GitHub).
Some of them apparently don't understand how WebExtensions work.
If you're unsure something is working as intended and/or if you're trying to get help in that respect, you should use GitHub to file a ticket and not try to pressure them with these unwarranted reviews.
The devs haven't been noticeably active in the past couple of months, so I seriously hope that this extension will continue to work as long as possible. - Rated 1 out of 5by Sahil, 4 years agoThis extension isn't working for me.., i wanted to assign rightAlt+leftArrow to "Go Back" but it didn't work. FYI: I tried to map "alt+left" to "Go back" but this extension failed to do so.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12267460, 4 years agoDoesn't work. I only want to map backspace to previous page and F5 to reload a page. Neither of these works.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12833352, 4 years agoI will increase this rating once I have closure - what is the reason for the added permissions? Does it just need to download files, and accessing download history is associated? What files does it need to download that it can't do through updates? Or is it supposed to enable shortcuts that download or access download history? Sorry to the developer(s) if this isn't the ideal place to ask, but it didn't seem appropriate to ask as an issue on Github either. Thank you for your time, I like this extension.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Sinister Stairs, 4 years agoI can finally disable cmd-d on the Mac! This would be 5* if I could remap it to Find.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Youareyou, 4 years agoWorks exactly how it is described in the description, all the negative reviews are people who didn't actually read what this extension can do and what its limitations are.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12801202, 4 years agoI don't think this is the way plugin should be programmed. I understand that authors are limited to WhateverTheNameIs API, which is a ripoff from Chrome. But I do not agree with this limitations.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Максим, 4 years agoPeople say here that the extension doesn't work but won't specify what exactly doesn't work. It actually works fine. Nevertheless there's a bug: when you enable "Sync to other devices" the entry will disappear.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12711710, 4 years agoThank you! Very useful extension. Now I can disable/change meaningless hotkeys.

Please fix it.
