# Keyboard shortcuts

> Use your keyboard to send messages, open Quick Entry, pause Dvina, send feedback and move around the app.

Dvina's shortcuts use <kbd>⌘</kbd> on a Mac, iPad or iPhone and <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> on Windows and Linux.

During a call with Dvina, press <kbd>Esc</kbd> to minimize the call and keep working. See [Call Dvina](/docs/use-dvina/features/call).

## Desktop app

These work in the Dvina app on your Mac or PC. On a Mac, you also find them in the menu bar.

| Action                               | Mac                                        | Windows and Linux                                            |
| ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Ask Dvina** (back to the chat)     | <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>T</kbd>                  | <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>T</kbd> or <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>N</kbd> |
| **Close Tab** (close the side panel) | <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>W</kbd>                  | <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>W</kbd>                                 |
| Show or hide the **Browser**         | <kbd>Shift</kbd> <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>B</kbd> | <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>Shift</kbd> <kbd>B</kbd>                |
| **Send Feedback…**                   | <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>F</kbd>     | <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>Alt</kbd> <kbd>F</kbd>                  |

On a Mac, **Ask Dvina** and **Close Tab** are in the File menu, **Browser** is in the View menu and **Send Feedback…** is in the Help menu. The Edit, View and Window menus also have the standard Mac commands, like Copy, Paste, full screen and Minimize, with their usual keys.

## Anywhere on your computer

These work while you're in any app, as long as Dvina is open.

| Action                              | Mac                           | Windows and Linux                             |
| ----------------------------------- | ----------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| Open or close **Quick Entry**       | <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>Space</kbd> | <kbd>Alt</kbd> <kbd>Space</kbd>               |
| Close Quick Entry                   | <kbd>Esc</kbd>                | <kbd>Esc</kbd>                                |
| Pause Dvina while it uses your apps | <kbd>⌥</kbd> <kbd>Esc</kbd>   | <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>Alt</kbd> <kbd>Esc</kbd> |

When you close Quick Entry, what you typed is kept for next time.

The pause shortcut works only while Dvina is using the apps on your computer. A paused run waits until you choose **Carry on**. See [Computer Use](/docs/use-dvina/features/computer-use).

### Change the Quick Entry shortcut

1. Go to Settings › **General** › **Quick Entry shortcut**.
2. Press the button, then press the new keys.

Use <kbd>Option</kbd>, <kbd>Control</kbd> or <kbd>Command</kbd> (<kbd>Alt</kbd> or <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> on Windows) with a key. Dvina tells you if another app already uses the keys you chose. Shortcuts with the Windows key, and the pause shortcut, can't be used.
