SmoothZoom – Quick Page Zoom
- Extension status: Featured
- Live on Store
Pinch-to-zoom convenience, now on your desktop.
Hold right-click and spin the mouse wheel to zoom toward the cursor. Enjoy the convenience of pinch-to-zoom functionality from touch screens, now available on your desktop.
Try it out on this DEMO website, without downloading: https://zoom.k1k1.dev/
Many touchpads support pinch-to-zoom in a way that they trigger the built-in page zoom. You can intercept this action by changing the zoom activation key from "RClick" to "Ctrl". This way, you don't need a mouse wheel to use SmoothZoom!

good
love it.
Works great! Maybe an option for a more localized zoom. like only the thumbnail im hovering over instead of the whole page. that might allow for better definition when zoomed. Still, better than any others I've tried! Thanks
Not working on my Google Chrome browser. None of the buttons doesn't pinch zoom.
absolutely incredible
Hands down the best pitch zoom replacement for desktop with no touch pad.
works, very cool
Really good app. But there is a small issue with mouse i do not want to always follow the cursor option enabled but when i want to zoom i want to adjust the zoomed frame.
doesnt work not sure why. The test website it pops up with worked fine but in all other websites it doesnt do anything. Anyone know of a fix?
Excellent work, thank you!
As expected, my touchpad is so poor it just gonna like Ctrl + Scroll and zoom gui up, thanks to this app my pc can zoom like modern laptop lol
It feels very nice
One of the best extensions I've ever used. To the developer: Please please please add this extension to Firefox aswell. Nothing on there is even close to as useable as SmoothZoom is.
This is exactly what I was looking for and it performs so smoothly , if only more people knew the conveniency of a touchpad's zoom this would get way more downloads
make me more comfort ... thanks

I must say that this tool is just PERFECT for me!! Some videos on youtube are just too big in full-screen mode on PC monitor, whereas only in full-screen mode that I can watch the video neat and clean. Therefore, there's only one tiny advice is that hope there's a chance to customize the background, or set background to black (right now it's white) while zooming out the screen!
works great!! More than expected..
Almost better than Mouse Pinch-To-Zoom ! (except for the red borders) I wish we could lower even more the "Strength" bar for as much precision. (Always the math flaw that is very rough around the middle zoom and overly precise and slow when getting very far or close) If only it would work like a normal zoom : I hold to change zoom on a page, else it just has to keep the zoom but the scroll is normal! (At least it doesn't interfere with the middle button to move around on the page !) Quick press (Shift probably the best key BTW) to reset zoom, if you want, but that "Hold to zoom" parameter is flawed by design. I don't want to keep holding the key, nor I want to keep changing zoom after I release the key, that should be obvious. My touchpad is broken, I'm looking for the same functions...
Nice zooming experience and essential for UHD users. It doesn't mess up sizes of components. While the feature is already great enough, can I scroll over the page while zooming like the way done by android phones or touchpads on labtops? The zoom key(?) acts like a toggle key, which means that while zoomed in, scroll action can only control the amount of zoom, so it cannot help scrolling. Appreciate it in advance.

Wow! Very powerful extension. I'm not sure how this magic is working but I wish I found it earlier. Ideal for teaching over Zoom.

Perfect tool for browsing in chrome. I love it. Thanks to KristijanRoss. You great.
Great extension but i want a way to move when zooming, not always like 'Always follow cursor' option. I still need to interact with web page like copy and page, click to some buttons... but it just limited in zooming place.

Great extension, but I'd like to be able to scroll the page while zoomed in - disabling "hold to zoom" is ok for a small amount of text, but if reading something like a Reddit thread, I need to be able to scroll down while zoomed.

Good. Love it!
Absolutely excellent quick zoom tool! Genuinely one of the best I've ever seen.
Best zoom extension ever made on planet earth

Seamless and responsive zooming experience that doesn't disrupt website layouts. The transitions between zoom levels are smooth and, what's even better, they can be configured. The step is also configurable, so it gives the ability to adjust the zoom level with precision. The automatic exit option upon releasing the hotkey is a particularly useful feature. It's a great implementation! Going to make browsing more enjoyable for sure.

This one is really useful when you have to demonstrate a webpage in a small screen. I hope you could add an option to have revert mouse scroll

It lets me zoom fine, but it is really slow and choppy. Sometimes it takes like 4-10 seconds for the zoom to actually happen.

If it feels laggy try out the "use screenshot" setting. Always nice to discover useful extensions like this, props to you!

This is WAY better than Mouse Pinch-To-Zoom plugin. This extension doesn't break sites when you zoom too much. However, after I release right mouse button, it returns back.
