Gestures that captivate you the moment you touch
The bothersome task of aiming for a small button with your cursor is unheard in Sleipnir. You can simply use touch gestures with Magic Mouse or the Track Pad to close tabs, go back, and more. Furthermore, because you just need to move your finger tips, bothersome keyboard operations and even just moving the cursor is not necessary. Even if you are holding a mug of coffee or resting your cheek in one hand, you can continue to browse the Web just like usual.
When Sleipnir detects a touch gesture, it displays an icon on the screen. Even for each response, the engineers here used a countless number of trial and error and experience to perfect.
The gestures in Sleipnir have been designed too meet the the scrolling operations of OS X so that you can use them in the way that you are used to. You can use them with 1 finger for Magic Mouse and 2 fingers for the Track Pad just like usual.
Flicking to the side quickly takes you to the tab to the side. Sleipnir has been completely designed so that you can open tabs one after another and make use of them making them more efficient and speedy than going back and forwards.
Accurately and quickly close tabs without small buttons
I wonder how far have you moved your cursor to press the small spec of a close button. With the original touch gestures of Sleipnir you can close tabs by simply drawing an L character like when scrolling like usual. There is also a variety of other touch gestures available such as for going back and forward, reloading, restoring closed tabs, and more. This makes it possible to make smart use of tabs with your finger tips from now on.
Elaborately adjusted gestures
Touch gestures are very delicate functions that feel completely different by the slightest change in finger movement. The engineer of Sleipnir made sure to thoroughly polish up all the gestures so that the timing and animation of actions, cancel method, and more operate in a pleasant and accurate way. They are something so pleasant and unheard of that you will want to use them straight away.
The iPhone feeling that you'll want to touch
Sleipnir for Mac is being handled by the same team that develops the app highly acclaimed in App Store called Sleipnir Mobile for iPhone / iPad. The nurtured finger tip operation feeling from the iPhone / iPad version can also be put to use for lightweight and easy of use on the Mac version too. The functions you are so used to on the iPhone / iPad version such as the way tabs switch in a beautiful flowing motion when scrolling from side to side can be used just like usual.
Open, read, close all with one hand
Touch gestures only become a useful function because they have everything experienced has been perfectly designed. For example, in Sleipnir, all you have to do in order to open links in new tabs is hold down on them. If there are some words you want to find out more about you can by just selecting them. Furthermore, tabs can be switched between with touch gestures. Because all the operations have been designed so that you can use them while relaxing with just one hand, this new sense of unity has now become available.
Open tabs one after another with just one hand and flick to switch tabs
Gestures with an old fashioned mouse too
Do you still use an old fashioned mouse that doesn't detect touch movements? In Sleipnir, if you hold down the right-click button and move the mouse you can perform operations just like with touch gestures. Of course, you can a regular mouse, a track ball or whatever your desired pointing device is as long as it has a right-click button to smoothly perform touch gestures.
