How to move to previous caret position?

How can one move to previous caret position(s) in Android Studio?

Solution

  • Use Ctrl + Alt + Left and Ctrl + Alt + Right

    For Mac, use Command + Option + Left and Command + Option + Right

    If these don't work for you, it is possible that these keys are assigned for some of the functions of your OS/video drivers, you can either disable the shortcuts that are using these keys from operating system settings/video driver settings or change shortcuts from Android Studio itself by going to:

    File > Settings > Keymap > Main menu > Navigate > Back/Forward
