It would help to know in which apps you are running into this.
Generally speaking if you are talking about going to the beginning or end of a

Beginning of a document is CommandKey+up arrow.

Make sure quick nav is on and just press control+up arrow and you will be at

Outlook is going to do that no matter what you do as far as I can tell.
At least the native mail app doesn’t announce the number of suggested contacts
as you enter an address. You have to go look for them in the native mail app.
One of the reasons I stick with it, rather than the Outlook app.

You may want to check out the Bluetooth keyboard commands on my web site.

I can't figure how to choose an amount to tip in the uber Eats app.
Voiceover says that there is an edit box, but tapping on it does nothing, and
if you just hit the submit button it defaults to the maximum amount. I want to
tip, but not at 25% as there is often a delivery fee and a service fee
No, I already had that set to speaker instead of auto. But, what a good try.
The main reason that I wanted to get away from the sensor was because it wasn't
