Adds four basic mouse gestures for browser navigation.

Install Compare

Nano Gestures is a lightweight browser extension that introduces four fundamental mouse gestures to streamline your web navigation. By holding the right mouse button and dragging in left, right, up, or down directions, users can quickly execute actions like navigating back, moving forward, creating or closing tabs, and more.

Designed primarily for Windows users, this extension allows full customization of gestures with up to eight actions by incorporating the ctrl key. Its ultra-sensitive "nano" setting triggers gestures with minimal mouse movement, catering to power users needing fast interaction. While some browser pages restrict gesture detection, Nano Gestures provides a significant boost to productivity and seamless browsing. It is also available for Chrome with Windows support.
