Touch Navigation

By: Shrugal
Add touchscreen navigation gestures to go back/forward and reload the page.

Features & Capabilities

Touch Navigation is a Chrome extension designed to improve your browsing experience on touchscreen devices. It adds intuitive navigation gestures: swipe right to go back, swipe left to go forward, and swipe down to reload the page. The extension displays clear icons during each gesture and intelligently determines if scrolling is possible in the gesture direction before activating the command. This makes browsing faster and more seamless without relying on traditional buttons or keyboard shortcuts.

It sometimes fire backward on any touch after continuous interaction, it can't be fixed until page refresh. does it need state cleanup and denounce somewhere in the event handler ? Maybe after each navigation or just inbetween any touch events?

Is Touch Navigation Safe?

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.

Touch Navigation requires a few sensitive permissions. 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 Add-ons Store, 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.

Touch Navigation has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
