I use this extension for one feature, and one feature only — pull to refresh. The built-in Firefox Android pull to refresh option is straight up broken, and has been broken for years now. After trying many pull to refresh extensions, it's clear to me this one gets the job done best. No more random unintended refreshes.

Some small annoyances preventing five stars though. "Simple gestures for Android" is full of other options that you need to disable one by one, then enable only pull to refresh, it's a pretty tedious process. Selecting a good gesture window/delay time is tricky, too long and you'll trigger some accidental refreshes, too short and you won't be fast enough to trigger a refresh when you want one. Ideally I should be using a longer delay window and have the ability to swipe up to cancel it. But, clearly the gesture engine here doesn't support something like that. That said, the 750ms time I've settled on works well enough, and still far better than the built in Firefox pull to refresh.

One bug I've encountered is, if a page fails to load, pull to refresh (and probably the entire extension) doesn't function at all. You essentially need a fully loaded html website to do your refresh. It's not a common issue, but every now and then you'll run into a bad spot for internet, or a link will be temporarily broken, forcing you to use the traditional refresh button. This may not actually be a bug though — I'm not sure that extensions can interact with an empty web page.

I picked this up a while ago and forgot about it. I just rediscovered it by accidentally entering the gesture to open its settings, and GOTTDANG I'M SO GLAD I DID.

This is my new favorite mobile extension!! It wouldn't be if Mobile had a good tab manager, or tree-style-tabs... but it doesn't, so Simple Gesture is the GOAT!

I'm making most of my programmed gestures vaguely reminiscent of Latin capital letters, so they're easier to remember. The programming and understanding is so beautifully easy to understand, and the settings menu covers everything it needs to and not an inch more. It's good UX design at it's purest.

Also I'm rubbing my hands together and giggling as I consider getting back into JavaScript to take advantage of the Custom Commands feature hidden at the bottom~ >:)

Is there a way to require the gesture to be from the edge of the screen? It pops up when I use a gesture, but I can't find a way to require it.

Edit: thank you for the quick response!

太好用了！让移动端的标签页管理大大增强，非常感谢作者！

It updated 8 minutes ago, totally messes scrolling on Android phone. Five stars when fixed. Disabled it to be able to use Firefox.

EDIT: Seems to be fixed,thank you

I like this extension. In the new version description it says “New: Support 2 or more fingers” but I can’t find this feature. I would like to set two finger touch to open a link in a new tab like safari on ipados. Is this possible? I a using double right now for this. So where is this 2 finger support?
Edit: Thank You. You added the feature I was looking for

Please add gesture for switching tabs. And maybe add two finger swipes.

useful and well-implemented add-on. Finally gifts FF-Androud users a nice UI experience, after Moz decided to cripple the UI some years ago.
Why does it need clip-board access though?

It's a useful extension but there's one issue. If you have one tab open and you close it with a gesture, that tab freezes. It doesn't open the homepage.

Very nice extension! Thank you so much for this.

I would love for there to be a gesture for saving the current webpage as a bookmark.

Very nice addon, I would continue to use it if all of the notifications including timeouts could be hidden.
