Shortcuts make it much easier to interact with an operating system and help you amp up productivity. Windows and macOS both have a wide range of shortcuts. Chromebooks are considered fast machines, but there’s always room to speed up things. So here are all the Chromebook shortcuts you can use to navigate ChromeOS like a pro.
We’ve divided these shortcuts into different categories. You can click on the links below to jump to the corresponding sections. Do note that this list contains essentials only.

Chrome Browser Shortcuts
We already have a Chrome browser shortcuts list for Windows, macOS, and Linux, which should also work on ChromeOS. Here are a few handy, essential Chrome browser shortcuts.
Text Editing Shortcuts
Text editing shortcuts in Chromebooks are quite similar to those on Windows. They’re primarily used to select and copy the text and paste it somewhere else.
ChromeOS System Shortcuts
System shortcuts are used to control everything from the hardware functions of the Chromebook to opening the Crosh and logging out of your Chromebook. There aren’t many of them since Chromebooks have dedicated keys to control different hardware functions.
Chromebook Trackpad Shortcuts
There are a few trackpad gestures that make navigating, switching windows and tabs, and zooming in or out much easier.
