Add-on summary

This extension adds the following touchscreen navigation gestures:

  • Swipe right to go back
  • Swipe left to go forward
  • Swipe down to reload the page

It shows nice icons during the gesture and checks beforehand if you can still scroll in a given direction.

User reviews

This is the extension I was looking for.

I encountered a bug where some time single tap on screen would trigger backward key, I will have to refresh the webpage to stop that from happening.
