# Keyboard Shortcuts & More

## Keyboard shortcuts

Ellie has a number of keyboard shortcuts so you can easily access common actions without using your mouse.

You can access them at any time in 2 ways:

1. Settings -> Keyboard shortcuts
2. With the keyboard shortcut "?" anywhere within the app

Some commonly used shortcuts are (updating the label of a task and editing the estimated time)

If you have any keyboard shortcuts you would like to see (or any we can improve on) please add a feedback item on our [feedback board](https://feedback.ellieplanner.com/)!
{% endhint %}

## Bulk edit (and move) tasks

On the web/desktop app you can select multiple tasks at once by holding down "SHIFT" and selecting the tasks. Once you do this a new "bulk action" bar will appear at the bottom of the app. You can perform a few actions in bulk to the tasks (like completing or deleting them).

You can also drag these tasks to any other date or list in bulk.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
Bulk actions are not supported in the timebox. You cannot bulk timebox tasks either
