Type of Enhancement

None

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

As a user, it'd be great to have more control over the web-app with just the keyboard. As I'm listening to things, I'd find it really useful to be able to add/ review bookmarks with just a shortcut. I can't be alone

Why would this be helpful?

Maintain a state of flow (e.g. for bookmarks/ note, you must used the keyboard to type things out - right now, you have to leave the keyboard, grab the mouse to click on UI elements, get back to the keyboard, repeat).

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

N/A - keyboard shortcuts.

Can you get more specific on the key board shortcuts you would like?

absolutely - the ones I can think of:

  • next/ previous chapter
  • increase speed, decrease speed of playback (e.g. the Shift + ">" / "<" of Youtube)
  • add bookmark (e.g. CMD + B to bring up the bookmarks/ notes AND set the cursor ready to type, which should be dismissible with Esc to return to the main player)

  },

that's useful. The bookmark functionality would also be really good to add.
