2024-08-06 | Bhira Wongseyai | en | The extension works really well I really loved it. If there's something to improve upon the current version IMO would be 1. Ctrl(CMD)+ Arrow Keys to jump to the last blank / non blank cell 2. Highlighting cell (To perform this with keyboard is really tedious, you have to ctrl+option+t to go to the toolbar then 'a' to accessibility then you'd tab all the way to highlight bar then select the colour.... you get the idea). Thank you guys for all the effort making vim motions work in Google Sheets! | |
2024-07-19 | Joohan Lee | en | can't believe i found this just now. Thank you so much. If possible could you add a function for shortcut to toggling filter? That would be absolutely amazing to do just by entering a key | |

2024-06-15 | Pavel Ermakov | en | Awesome extension, thank you! Now google sheets are pleasant to use on a keyboard. | |
2024-06-09 | Avi | en | Exactly what I needed! I think I will owe around 85 years of my life to Phil if I live to be a 100. Thanks a ton! | |
2024-04-11 | Jesse Adamson Paroz | en | Google Sheets + Vim bindings = SheetKeys If you use vim, know vim keybindings, love keyboard shortcuts, or love editing efficiency: You should try SheetKeys. This is an open-source extension with a trustworthy and responsive maintainer. Cannot recommend enough! | |
2024-03-31 | James Lau | en | I've used Vimium (from the same developer) for years and totally rely on it. Now that I have discovered SheetKeys I am converted to using Google Sheets instead of MS Excel. It may sound trivial but reaching for the arrow keys is-a-stretch for me and having vim commands to navigate a spreadsheet and perform other functions is so much more intuitive. Thank you Phil :) | |
2024-02-10 | Sisira Somaratne | en | This is Great! I was waiting for this type of Vim binding to Google Sheets. Can you please make a one for Google Docs? One thing I noticed ;ac Align center is not working. Align left and right is fine. Thank you very much! | |
2024-01-03 | David Balmain | en | Great plugin! Thanks for creating this. My only issue so far is that `Ctrl-d` got overwritten. I use that shortcut all the time in Sheets for extending formulas. It'd be good if that could be given its own vi-like shortcut, but I don't know what that would be. For now, it was easy enough to remap "Scroll half page down" so it's not a huge issue. |
