- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14628831, 5 years agoWould have been great, if only [;'\ were allowed for mapping to. This tell me that it's either bad implementation of good code, bad code, or technical limitations on part of gecko or firefox. Either way, this is useless, if you can't use your preferred keys.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Ioachim S, 5 years agoConclusion: This is a great extension that I've been using with Chrome for 5 years already. However, Chrome is becoming a google pest so I moved on to Firefox. I realize that it is not possible to set a shortcut to send the current tab to the OneTab well. This renders this extension absolutely useless and will be uninstalling it now and will try again later time to see if this is possible.
The actual experience: I have a hard time understanding how others use this extension. I click the one tab icon, and wow, all my tabs are sent all to OneTab. What the... This is bad UX or I am too old. Ok, lets repeat the sequence. I have 26 tabs open out of which I want to keep only 4 open. I select a tab to be sent to OneTab, right click the one tab icon, go to OneTab submenu and select 'Send only this tab to OneTab' and repeat this action 24 times manually. Ok, this took 2 minutes and I am tired and irritated that I had to do this, this is just bad UX. - Rated 1 out of 5by jr, 5 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by JSS1138, 5 years agoUnfortunately, this Add-On didn't have all the functionality it claims to have. The Help file specifically says that the Function keys can be used as shortcuts, but they simply do not work.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Silver Surfer, 5 years agoThis addon does not work at all. There is no option to create the shortcuts at the bottom of the screen where it is supposed to be.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Dmytro Sokhach, 5 years agoCtrl+Shift+N reassignment to New Private Window doesn't work.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15318443, 5 years agoI can't figure out how to make it do anything. Thats 20 minutes I will never get back...
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15043717, 6 years agoIts inability to be used in New Tab, regardless of who is at fault, makes this useless for my intended purposes.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14703355, 6 years agoReally kinda junky. The user interface is nearly unusable (having to scroll right to find Save button) and it doesn't even have an option to do what I want (keyboard shortcut to show/hide the Bookbarks toolbar under the address bar). No good.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13373464, 6 years agoThere are no instructions on where to go or what to do after installing the addon. yeah there is the "(ctrl+shift+a) ->Shortkeys ->Options" but that does not lead to where it claims to. Someone mentioned a FAQ but I can't even find that. what a useless addon.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14584443, 6 years agoIf you're not going to fix the garbage UX, at least put this at the top of the about page:
"ctrl+d" -> "Do Nothing (Disable browser shortcut)" -> Scroll right to view the save button -> Save -> Restart Firefox
Probably prevent some 1 star reviews. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14540761, 6 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14558431, 6 years agoNone of the hotkeys I try to remap save, despite clicking the Add button. I often use my ctrl button, and WASD. Ctrl+w closes my tab, and I don't want it to. This addon didn't help that in any way.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14448194, 6 years agoSimply does not work for default shortcuts. I want to disable ctrl+w for a webpage that has a terminal emulator, and ctrl+w is one of the shortcuts I need to enter. I try to disable it through the extension, and it does not work even after restarting the whole browser. Does not do what is described.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Windthin, 6 years agoThis did not work at all. I got it in the hopes of nullifying the annoying F12/F11 keys, and it did not function at all.
