What is Custom Hotkeys?

Custom Hotkeys is a Chrome extension that provides a user the ability to establish their own hotkeys on any desired website. This presents an effective way to simulate clicks on screen elements, primarily utilizing jQuery selectors. An impeccable tool especially for websites such as pocketcasts.com, facilitating swift and easy control of on-screen controls comparable to that of Youtube's keyboard controls.

Allows you to set up hotkeys on any website. Use your keyboard to simulate a click on an element on the screen. It uses jQuery selectors.

I use it on pocketcasts.com to control the on screen controls. I made them the same as Youtubes keyboard controls.

Works fine for my purpose. There are some complaints in the comments here, but no issues so far. Hope the dev updates this extension though
