# Hotkeys

:::info
Unlike a traditional desktop app, Peepochat has to use unconventional keyboard combinations to maintain hotkey support. In most cases, the app uses **Alt** instead of **Ctrl**.

:::

| Keybind | Purpose |
|---------|---------|
| `Ctrl+F`<br>`Alt+F` | Opens search. |
| `Alt 0-9` | Switch to channel/split. |
| `Alt+T` | Add channel. |
| `Alt+N` | Open notification center. |
| `Alt+Shift+N` | Toggle do not disturb mode. |
| `Alt+.` | Open the settings. |
| `Alt+S` | Toggle the sidebar. |
| `Alt+E` | Open emoji picker in last selected chat. |
| `Alt+V` | Open viewer list in last selected chat. |
| `Alt+R` | Reload emotes. |
| `Alt+L` | Focus the last selected chat composer. |
