Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nickustinov/itsytv-macos/issues/10

I mentioned in a Reddit thread it would be good to have a way to reconfigure the existing keys.

I find myself constantly hitting [esc] to go back a screen, but because that's mapped to the remote Home button, it exits whatever app I'm in instead of going back.

All the other key mappings make perfect sense to me except for this one - my fingers always want to hit [esc] to go back.

Nice work adding the open hotkey, and command-W in 1.1.0 👍

Cheers!

@ceeeekay I've just swapped them, makes sense! Check out 1.2.0 - https://github.com/nickustinov/itsytv-macos/releases/tag/v1.2.0

I’d actually prefer to revert this change or introduce a config option. In practice it noticeably complicates one-hand input for the same actions, especially when browsing media apps. Additionally, the escape key is located where the home button is on most iPad keyboards.
