AutoControl: Keyboard shortcuts, Mouse gestures Extension


▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ SUMMARY ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

AutoControl is a comprehensive solution to fully customize the way
you control your browser using keyboard, mouse and joysticks.

This is the only shortcut manager that can redefine and disable ALL
factory keyboard and mouse shortcuts in Chrome.
This is the only shortcut manager that works on ALL browser tabs.

None of this is possible with regular Chrome extensions.
AutoControl IS NOT A REGULAR EXTENSION.

AutoControl currently works on Windows operating systems only.
If you are still interested, read on to learn why AutoControl is different.



▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ AutoControl is a native extension ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

AutoControl brings out the power of Chrome's native extensibility to gain
essential advantages over regular extensions:

✔ It can customize or disable ALL browser shortcuts, even those
prohibited to regular extensions, such as Ctrl+Tab, Ctrl+ScrollWheel,
and any other.

✔ Keyboard shortcuts and gestures work on ALL tabs, be it the
New Tab Page, extension pages, settings pages, protected pages,
PDF documents, you name it.

✔ It doesn't inject code into every page you visit, thus leaving their
functionality intact, which avoids sluggish pages and conserves
CPU and memory.

✔ Keyboard shortcuts and mouse gestures are implemented natively,
which makes them respond instantly at all times.

Liam (ID: 0000003835b6643e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/30/2024 Very useful Edit: PoS Chrome trying to delete useful apps "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions."

Dimitri G (ID: 0000006d27867a39) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/05/2024 Right mouse button extensions seem to be a curse... CRX stopped working and was riddled with bugs, Smartup got flagged as being malware so... Autocontrol was installed and was quickly configured with some basic actions... Once you get the 'logic', the configuration was easy and it seems to be powerful. But for now, I've been using it for just 3 small days and also tested it out on about 5 devices. To my surprise, it seems to be working splendidly and never skips a beat. And it even works in 'special' tabs (like configuration pages). So hoping that this breaks the curse and for that, I've just happily sent a donation :-) Goodluck with the future!
