Summary

Analyze keywords

WebMotion lets you navigate the web by using your keyboard. It highlights one letter inside every link and allows you to follow a link by pressing its highlighted letter on your keyboard. Pressing a key twice opens up a link in a new tab.

You can use the letters H, J, K and L to easily navigate inside websites and across tabs. H and L switch between tabs, and J and K scroll inside a website. SHIFT + J or K scroll extra fast.

(the arrow keys work for this as well, but you must press SHIFT to use them)

Some more shortcuts:

B = Go back X = Close tab ALT key = Show alternate set of links in case there were not enough letters to cover all links

You can turn WebMotion on / off or disable it for certain websites by clicking the WebMotion icon in your browser. You can still use the WebMotion shortcuts (H, J, K, L, B and X) on disabled sites by holding down the CTRL and ALT keys.

Safety

Risk impact

WebMotion is risky to use as it requires a number of sensitive permissions that can potentially harm your browser and steal your data. Exercise caution when installing this extension. Review carefully before installing. We recommend that you only install WebMotion if you trust the publisher.
