Keyboard shortcuts

A verified reference of NeuroCards keyboard shortcuts for reviewing cards and managing the library.

Updated View as Markdown

NeuroCards provides shortcuts for its most repeated review actions and for commands inside action menus.

Cmd shortcuts use Ctrl on Windows and Linux.

Review sessions

These shortcuts work while studying one deck, a folder, or the mixed review queue.

Shortcut Action
Space Reveal or hide the answer.
1 Rate the revealed card Again.
2 Rate the revealed card Hard.
3 Rate the revealed card Good.
4 Rate the revealed card Easy.

The number shortcuts do nothing until the answer is visible, which helps prevent accidental ratings before you check the answer.

Library edit mode

Shortcut Action
Cmd+Z / Ctrl+Z Undo the latest supported library change.

Undo is available while Edit library or Edit folder is active. It is ignored while you are typing in an input, text area, or editable field.

Deck and folder action menus

These single-letter commands work only while the relevant action menu is open.

Library item menu

Shortcut Action
R Rename the deck or folder.
M Move the deck or folder.
D Open the delete confirmation.

Deck page menu

Shortcut Action
E Edit the deck.
G Generate cards with AI, when available.
I Import cards.
X Export cards.
D Open the delete confirmation.

Closing menus and overlays

Shortcut Action
Escape Close the active action menu, popover, drawer, or dialog.

The exact result depends on which control currently has focus. If overlays are stacked, Escape closes the topmost one first.
