IngestBy default a marking key acts where you are and does not move on. Turn on advancing in Settings → Browsing, and then holding ⇧ does the opposite for one press. The command names in the app flip to match, so the menu always tells the truth.

Tag, rating, label, and review actions have separate advance settings. With multiple photos selected, T tags all of them, or clears their tags when all are already tagged. Viewing alone does not mark a photo reviewed. Protected photographs are skipped with an explanation.
A mark applies to every selected photograph, or to the one under the focus ring. On a collapsed bracket stack it applies to every frame in the stack.
