Template:Noticebox/official Controls are arrays of inputs on controllers and devices to navigate VRChat. VRChat supports several operating systems, with multiple combinations of devices and controllers. Some of these controls can be configured in the Settings Menu. Depending on the platform you are using VRChat on, you may be able to customize controls further by using the Settings menu in VRChat, or your device's dashboard.
The Settings Menu within VRChat details the button mappings for the device you’re currently using. Below are the default configurations:
Primary Controls
These are the basic controls for navigating and interacting within VRChat that apply to the different input types:

| Turn | Mouse Move | Right Thumbstick | Hold and drag screen | |
| Jump | Space | A (right hand, bottom button) | A | Jump Button |
| Crouch | C | −− | Left Thumbstick (Click) | Jump Button (Hold) |
| Prone / Crawl | Z | Left Thumbstick (Hold) | ||
| Sprint | Left Shift | −− | ||
| Use / Interact | E | Trigger / Index finger pull | Trigger | Tap |

Controller Buttons
Most VR controllers are laid out similarly. Each controller has a joystick and two main buttons, a system button, a trigger, and a grip button.
| Button | Assignment |
|---|---|
| A - right hand, bottom button | Jump |
| B - right hand, top button | Press: Quick Menu Hold: Action Menu |

| Y - left hand, top button | Press: Quick Menu Hold: Action Menu |
| Grip - Middle finger pull | Pick up |
| Trigger - Index finger pull | Use |
| Right Thumbstick | Turn |
| Left Thumbstick | Move / Locomote |
| Both Triggers + Both Menu Buttons | Enable Safe Mode |
Hand Tracking
There is a 
tutorial world to learn hand tracking in a kinesthetic environment!
To use hand tracking, just put down your controllers and put your hands out so the Quest hand tracking system kicks in. Of course, make sure you have the system enabled in the Quest settings.
To move around the world, hold your left hand up, palm facing your face. Touch your middle finger to your thumb in a “pinch” motion, and a small blue sphere will appear. While still pinching, move your fingers away from that sphere, and you'll move in that direction!
To turn left and right, do the same motion with your middle finger to your thumb, but with your right hand. While still pinching, move your fingers left or right. You'll turn!
You can turn with Comfort Turning (snap turning) on or off. If you have Comfort Turning on, you'll need to move your pinched finger “past” the turn point each time you turn. It might be easier to use this locomotion method with Comfort Turning disabled in your settings.
Pull up your VRChat Quick Menu by “pinching” your index finger and your thumb on your left hand. This is a “default” Oculus gesture, you'll see a little menu icon float over your hand and “fill up” as you long-pinch. To interact with the UI, point at it with your hand, and select things by pinching your index and thumb together.
You can mute yourself by holding your thumb and ring finger together for a moment on your left hand.
Desktop Controls
You can play VRChat using a keyboard and mouse.
Movement is handled via the standard FPS “WASD” setup. Your mouse adjusts your view position. Your head points in the direction you’re looking.

* Use left shift to control your left hand, use right shift to control your right hand.
† On a standard English US QWERTY layout keyboard, “backtick” is the key in the top left, next to the 1 key. It shares a key with the tilde (~) character.
Debug options are disabled unless you launch VRChat with the --enable-debug-gui launch option.
Mobile Controls
On the left side of the screen is a virtual joystick, which will move your avatar around. Tapping and dragging on the screen will move your point of view. Double tapping and holding anywhere on the screen will let you walk around and move your viewpoint simultaneously.
The right side of the screen has buttons for jumping, picking up items, and interacting with the world. Holding down the button will allow for further options, such as an action menu, or crouching.
Tapping on a player or a portal will instantly bring up a secondary menu.
