Tab gestures have been the most requested feature since Quiche Browser launched, so I really can't wait!
Still tons of work, adjustments, and polish ahead, but the plan is to roll everything out progressively over April and May, with more gestures to come soon after.
No TestFlight, straight to the App Store as soon as they're ready.
A slow motion sneak peek of what's (finally) coming to Quiche Browser:
• Swipe up to see all tabs.
• Slide on the toolbar to move between tabs.
• Tabs move, grow, and shrink in an organic way.
• The interface always responds to taps and gestures, even during transitions.
These last two are the same design principles behind the app switcher on iOS, and applying them to Quiche Browser should make it feel a lot more natural and smooth to use.

Too rarely, an app creator breaks outdated conventions and designs their dream app from first principles to solve a problem in a radical way, instead of shipping yet another uninspired clone.
And when they pair that with a thoughtful, beautiful narrative, it deserves to be celebrated.
Go check out Terry’s essay. If you’re into laser-focused creators, it’s well worth your time.
Great news for me as an indie browser maker:
Safari is rumored to be rebuilt around AI features in iOS 27!
If even Apple joins the Browser AI-Enshittification League, I can’t think of a better opportunity for Quiche Browser to stand out as the radically minimalist, no-nonsense alternative to Safari.
Thanks, Apple! Keep going 💪

Developers: Wheeeeeeeeee!
Customizable gestures in Quiche Browser are my main focus right now.
They’ll let you replace what your most important buttons do and, if you’re into hardcore minimalism like me, keep only the page’s information for calmer, more immersive reading, without burying key actions in a menu.
What a lovely surprise to discover my little indie web browser so tastefully featured on a YouTube channel about minimalism and aesthetics in tech.
(Both very much my thing, and what I try to put into Quiche Browser.)
