Gestify — Gesture Controls for Every Web Video (Chrome, Edge, Firefox + Android)

lu xiao — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 02:59:46 +0000

The Problem

Phone apps like YouTube and TikTok have amazing gesture controls — swipe to seek, hold for speed, double tap to skip. But when you watch videos in a browser? You're stuck clicking a tiny progress bar.

Gestify fixes this. It adds touch-style gesture controls to every HTML5 video on the web.

How It Works

Install Gestify and open any video. No setup required — just use gestures directly on the video:

Gesture	Action
Swipe left/right	Seek forward/backward (swipe down to cancel)
Long press	2× speed boost (release to restore)
Long press + swipe up	Lock the speed permanently
Double tap left	Rewind 10 seconds
Double tap right	Fast forward 10 seconds
Double tap center	Play/Pause
Vertical swipe (right)	Volume control
Vertical swipe (left)	Brightness control
Alt + mouse wheel	±5 second seek (PC)

Works Everywhere

YouTube, Netflix, Disney+, Bilibili, Twitch, TikTok, Vimeo, Udemy, Coursera — any website with standard HTML5 <video>. No per-site setup needed.

The Killer Feature: Android Support

Gestify works on Android Edge and Android Firefox browsers.

Mobile browsers have zero fullscreen video gesture support. With Gestify installed, your phone browser matches the experience of native video apps — swipe to seek, long press for speed, double tap to skip, slide for volume. All in fullscreen.

One browser + Gestify replaces a dozen video apps.

How I Built Tab Panels to Solve My 100+ Browser Tab Problem

lu xiao — Tue, 02 Sep 2025 09:37:48 +0000

The Developer's Dilemma

As a developer, I constantly juggle multiple projects, research topics, and reference materials. My browser typically holds 40-80 tabs: documentation sites, Stack Overflow threads, GitHub repositories, localhost servers, monitoring dashboards, and the occasional cat video (for stress relief, of course).

Sound familiar? The traditional browser tab bar becomes completely unusable at this scale.

I'm the creator of VertiTab, and after months of development, I just launched Tab Panels - a feature that fundamentally changes how we manage browser tabs.

What Are Tab Panels?

Think of Tab Panels as virtual workspaces for your browser tabs. Instead of seeing all 50+ tabs at once, you only see the tabs relevant to your current task.

It's like having multiple desktops, but for browser tabs.

Three Built-in Panels (Free Forever)

I started with three essential panels that every user needs:

All Tabs - Your traditional view, showing everything
Active Tabs - Only shows non-suspended tabs (goodbye, memory hogs!)
Recent Tabs - Quick access to recently visited pages

These alone dramatically clean up your browsing experience.

Custom Panels: Where It Gets Interesting

The real power comes with custom panels. Here's how I organize my development workflow:

Development Setup

🔧 Development Panel
├── localhost:3000 (React app)
├── localhost:3001 (API server)
├── Chrome DevTools
└── Hot reload logs

📚 Documentation Panel
├── React docs
├── MDN references
├── API documentation
└── Stack Overflow searches

🔍 Debug Panel
├── Error tracking (Sentry)
├── Performance monitoring
├── Network analysis
└── Console logs

Research Mode

When diving into a new technology:

🧪 Research Panel (Temporary)
├── Official documentation
├── Tutorial articles
├── Code examples
├── Community discussions

Here's the clever part...

Smart Auto-Cleanup

Temporary Panels automatically delete themselves when you close all tabs inside them. Perfect for research sessions or debugging workflows.

Favorite Panels persist and can even restore saved URLs - great for recreating your entire development environment.

This matches exactly how we work: create temporary context → use it → discard it.

Flexible Layout System

Panels can be positioned left or right of your tab list
Custom icons and colors for visual organization
Hide empty panels to keep things clean
Drag-and-drop tab management

Real-World Impact

Before Tab Panels

60+ tabs mixed together
15+ seconds to find the right documentation
Constant context switching between work and personal tabs
Browser performance issues

After Tab Panels

Work Panel: 8 tabs (project-specific)
Learning Panel: 6 tabs (current tutorial series)
Tools Panel: 4 tabs (monitoring and debugging)
Temp Research: 3 tabs (auto-deletes when done)

Finding what I need: ~3 seconds
Context switching: Nearly eliminated
Browser performance: Significantly improved

Why This Works Better Than Bookmarks

Dynamic Context: Shows only what's relevant now
Automatic Cleanup: No manual folder maintenance
Visual Organization: Icons and colors provide instant recognition
Cross-Session Persistence: Favorite panels restore entire workflows

Technical Implementation

Built as a Chrome extension using:

Manifest V3 for future compatibility
Chrome Storage API for cross-device sync
Native drag-and-drop APIs
Virtual scrolling for performance

The extension respects browser permissions and privacy - no data leaves your device unless you enable sync.

Getting Started

Free Version: Includes 3 built-in panels
Premium Version: Unlimited custom panels

Install: Chrome Web Store

Documentation: User Guide

Developer Feedback

Since launching, I've received feedback from developers worldwide:

"Finally! This is exactly what I needed for managing my microservices documentation." - Frontend Developer

"The temporary panels feature is genius. Perfect for research sprints." - Full-stack Developer

"Game changer for API development. I can keep all related endpoints organized." - Backend Developer

What's Next

I'm working on:

Team collaboration features (share panel configurations)
Enhanced keyboard shortcuts
Integration with popular developer tools
Mobile browser support

Final Thoughts

If you regularly work with 20+ tabs, Tab Panels will change how you browse and develop. It's like going from a cluttered desk to having organized drawers for everything.

The free version covers most use cases, but the premium features unlock powerful workflow optimizations for heavy users.

Try it out and let me know what you think! I'm always looking for feedback to improve the developer experience.

What's your current tab management strategy? How many tabs do you typically have open?

I built VertiTab to solve my own productivity problems. Tab Panels represent the biggest leap forward we've made in browser tab management.

Major Update! VertiTab introduces Cloud Sync, Tree-Style Tabs, and Auto-Snapshot

lu xiao — Wed, 27 Nov 2024 13:27:16 +0000

In this update, VertiTab brings several major new features designed to solve the frustrating problem of tab loss and cluttered tab management, while enhancing the efficiency and convenience of your browsing experience. Whether you are a multi-device user or a single-device user, the new Cloud Sync feature will help you keep all your tabs, groups, and windows synchronized across devices. Additionally, the introduction of Tree-Style Tabs will help you organize your tabs more clearly and efficiently.

1. Cloud Sync: No More Tab Loss!

Losing tabs can be incredibly frustrating, especially when a system crash or browser failure causes your working tabs to disappear in an instant. Now, VertiTab’s new Cloud Sync feature solves this problem!

Why should you enable Cloud Sync?

Seamless Sync Across Devices

Whether you’re working on one device or multiple, Cloud Sync will sync all your tabs, tab groups, windows, and browser settings with a single click. Your data will automatically stay consistent across all devices for a smoother browsing experience.
Data Protection for Single-Device Users

Even if you only use one device, enabling Cloud Sync is still very valuable. When a system crash, browser failure, or reinstallation occurs, Cloud Sync will help you quickly restore all your tabs and settings without the hassle of reconfiguring everything.
Security and Privacy Protection

We use industry-leading AES-GCM local encryption to ensure that your data is encrypted before it is uploaded to the cloud. All data transfers and storage are securely protected, so you can use VertiTab with peace of mind, knowing your privacy is safe.

2. Tree-Style Tabs: More Efficient Tab Management!

Managing tabs is never easy, especially when you have a lot of them open at once. Now, VertiTab introduces Tree-Style Tabs, which organizes your tabs in a tree structure based on parent-child relationships, making your tab management clearer and more efficient.

Why are Tree-Style Tabs more efficient?

Clearer Tab Structure

With the tree structure, you can easily view and manage the hierarchy of your tabs, avoiding the chaos of a traditional tab bar.
Boosts Productivity

Tree-Style Tabs help you find the tabs you need more quickly and organize them into related groups, making your work more efficient.

3. Auto-Snapshot: Double Protection for Your Data!

Whether it’s a browser crash or a sudden system shutdown, losing tabs and work windows is always frustrating. To prevent this, VertiTab introduces the Auto-Snapshot feature. It automatically saves your most recent tab states to protect your progress.

How does Auto-Snapshot protect your data?

Real-Time Tab State Saving

Whenever you close a tab or make any changes, VertiTab automatically saves your tab states. If something goes wrong, it can quickly restore your tabs to their latest state to prevent loss.
Double Protection with Cloud Sync & Snapshots

Combining Cloud Sync and Auto-Snapshot ensures that even if your system crashes or you reinstall your browser, your tabs and work states can be quickly restored.

This update makes tab management smarter and more efficient, while also improving data protection to solve some of the biggest pain points users face. Download the latest version now for more stable and secure tab management!
