Keyboard shortcuts

The reader is built around a small set of keys. The shortcuts work whenever the reader is focused; click anywhere on the reading area to focus it.

Playback

• Spacebar — pause and resume.
• Left arrow — skip back fifteen seconds.
• Right arrow — skip forward fifteen seconds.

Position

• Click any word — jump the voice to that word and continue from there.

Why so few

The reading surface is meant to feel like a book. A book has no shortcuts. The keys above are the ones that pay rent — they let you steer without taking your hand off the page.
