3-Finger Swipe

Glide three fingers left or right to switch between tabs. Hold and keep dragging to scrub through several at once.

3-Finger Tap

Tap with three fingers on any link to open it in a new background tab. No more right-clicking.

Tune to taste

Live sliders let you dial in gesture sensitivity and tab-scrub spacing to match your touch — every tweak applies instantly.
