Hi, I have a Spanish Magic Keyboard for the iPad Pro 4th gen and I am trying to learn all the shortcuts, but the “Cmd ]” Does not seem to work and I do not know why. For the character ] I have to do “option `”, but if I do “cmd option `” it does not work. ¿Am I missing something?
iPad Pro, iPadOS 13

PS Do you actually mean "Cmd ["? That is "Back" in Safari. When using Spanish, it should be "Cmd `" (no "option" key involved). Does that work?

What is it that you expect Command ] to do and in what app? Are you running the device in Spanish or in English?
The character ] is made via Option +, not Option `. Option ` makes [

His problem is that [ and ] cannot be made with a single keystroke on a Spanish keyboard, but require the option key to be held down, and this is not working. Probably the shortcut is different for Spanish than for English.

If Cmd ` on the Spanish keyboard does not do "atras" with Safari in Spanish, then you should provide feedback via
For non-Apple apps, you should report problems with shortcuts to their authors.
Yeah, there are other apps that also use “Cmd [”, but “Cmd `” does not seem to be the equivalent, especially due to some apps having their own “Cmd `” being different from “Cmd [“, such as Twitter that uses the first one for the navigation menu and the second one for going back.
Hello,
The Command (⌘) key often is used as a modifier key for specific application commands. The Option (⌥) key is used for modifying the typed character.
