Jailbreak Only: FullScreen For Safari Brings Gestures To Mobile Safari
October 17, 2010
I love being able to surf the web using multi-touch gestures on my MacBook Pro. I've gotten so used to it that I often find myself doing three-finger back swipes on my iPhone, only to remember that it doesn't support it. Well, if this is just as frustrating to you, as it is to me, I have fantastic news. A new jailbreak tweak released today will allow you to control mobile Safari using your beloved multi-touch gestures.
It's called "FullScreen for Safari," and it allows you to map two and three-finger gestures to control mobile Safari. For example, you can set it up to switch tabs when swiping up through the screen, go back and forward, refresh, and even switch to fullscreen. Further supported gestures are double taps, and even shaking the device. Here it is on video (courtesy of iSpazio):
This is probably one of the most powerful jailbreak tweaks I've seen so far, and for $1.50, it's a pretty good deal. You can get it now, on Cydia.
