Tablet Gestures is a Chrome extension designed specifically for tablets to improve your browsing experience using intuitive 2-finger swipe actions. It supports 8 directional gestures that allow you to open new tabs, close current tabs, navigate left and right between tabs, go back and forward in pages, duplicate, and reload tabs. The extension recognizes parallel finger movements and avoids conflicts with pinch-to-zoom actions.

You can customize the number of fingers required, the distance needed for gesture recognition, and configure the gestures to suit your preferences. A demo page is included to practice and familiarize yourself with the gestures. Note that this extension is optimized for multi-touch screens and does not support trackpads. Tablet Gestures is perfect for tablet users looking for efficient tab and page control using simple gestures.

I'm using the add on solely in tablet mode when the touch pad gestures are not accesibble to navigate forth and back. To counter issues with interfering with pinch to zoom, just set the add-on to react on a single finger only :) Works lovely

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Tablet Gestures requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Tablet Gestures has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
