TL;DR Jump opens on any page when you press your shortcut or click the Speed Dial 2 icon in the toolbar. Type to open a bookmark, switch to a tab, reopen a closed tab or save the page you're on. Set your shortcut once in Preferences › Jump.
Your Speed Dial is great when you open a new tab. Jump brings it to every page you visit. Press one shortcut and a search box appears on top of whatever you're reading. From there you can reach your bookmarks, your open tabs, your browser's bookmarks and handy actions without leaving the keyboard.
You can always open Jump by clicking the Speed Dial 2 icon in your browser toolbar. It's much faster with a keyboard shortcut, though, and setting one takes about ten seconds. Browsers only allow extensions to set shortcuts on the browser's own settings page, so Speed Dial 2 takes you there.
Chrome and Edge
When you return to Preferences, the box turns into "Shortcut is active" and shows your keys. You can also go to the shortcuts page directly at chrome://extensions/shortcuts (Chrome) or edge://extensions/shortcuts (Edge).
Firefox
In Preferences › Jump, click Set shortcut and press the key combination you want. It has to include Ctrl or Alt (⌘ or ⌃ on Mac) plus a letter, number or function key.
Pro Tip: Don't see the Speed Dial 2 icon in your toolbar? Click the puzzle-piece icon and pin Speed Dial 2. Then Jump is always one click away, even without a shortcut.
Press your shortcut on any website. Before you type anything, Jump shows:
Start typing and Jump searches everything at once. Results are sorted into sections:
group:work or last 30 days work here too.Press Enter to open the highlighted result in the current tab, or Ctrl+Enter (⌘+Enter on Mac) to open it in a new tab. If nothing matches, Jump offers to search the web for what you typed.
This is the quickest way to add a bookmark to Speed Dial 2:
Note: Pages that belong to the browser itself, such as settings pages, the extensions page or the new tab page, can't be saved. On those pages Jump simply hides the "Save this page…" option.
Jump has focused modes for specific tasks. Type the letter and press Tab to enter one, or select it from the list:
| g + Tab | Browse bookmarks by group: open a Speed Dial 2 group and search inside it |
| t + Tab | Search open tabs: switch to a tab, or act on the current one |
| b + Tab | Search browser bookmarks: browse and search your browser's own bookmarks |
| r + Tab | Recently closed tabs: reopen a tab you closed by mistake |
| a + Tab | Browse actions: tab tricks, browser pages and app shortcuts |
The active mode appears as a blue label in the search box. Press Backspace on an empty search box to go back a step.
Have 30 tabs open and can't find the one you need? Type t + Tab, then a few letters of the page title or website, and press Enter to jump straight to it, even in another window. Below your tabs you'll find actions for the current tab, such as Duplicate tab, Pin tab and Mute tab.
Type g + Tab to see your Speed Dial 2 groups. Pick one and press Tab or Enter to see its bookmarks, sorted by most visited. Type to search only inside that group.
Jump can also search the bookmarks saved in your browser, so you don't need to dig through the bookmarks bar. Type b + Tab, open folders with Enter or Tab, and go up a level with Backspace. Typing searches the open folder and everything inside it.
Closed a tab you still needed? Type r + Tab to see the tabs you closed most recently, newest first. Pick one and press Enter to bring it back.
Note: The first time you use browser bookmarks or recently closed tabs, your browser asks for a one-time permission. Speed Dial 2 only asks when you use these features, and you can use the rest of Jump without them.
Type a + Tab to browse every action, or just type an action's name from the main screen.
Pro Tip: You don't need the full name. Open Jump, type cal and press Enter to start a new calendar event. Type doc to find your Google Docs bookmark or create a new document.
| ↑ ↓ | Move through the list (Home / End jump to the first or last item) |

Prefer a simpler Jump? In Preferences › Jump, under "What Jump can do", switch off anything you don't use: open tabs, browser bookmarks, recently closed tabs, tab and browser actions, or app shortcuts. Everything is on by default, and Jump is free for everyone.
