-import { useHotkeys } from 'react-hotkeys-hook';
-
-export const ExampleComponent: React.FC = () => {
-  const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
-  useHotkeys('ctrl+k', () => setCount(prevCount => prevCount + 1));

-  return (

 ### Call Signature

-useHotkeys(keys: string, callback: (event: KeyboardEvent, handler: HotkeysEvent) => void, deps: any[] = [])
+useHotkeys(keys: string, callback: (event: KeyboardEvent, handler: HotkeysEvent) => void, options: Options = {}, deps: any[] = [])
 ```
 
-The `useHotkeys` hook follows the [hotkeys] call signature.
 The callback function takes the exact parameters as the callback function in the hotkeys package.
 See [hotkeys] documentation for more info or look into the typings file.
