This extension provides the ability to scroll through web pages using only hand gestures. Once enabled, a tone is emitted through the speaker and is picked up by the microphone. By moving your hand towards or away from the microphone, you compress or decompress the sound waves slightly which is detected and used to scroll the page.
### IMPORTANT ###:
- Make sure any headphones are unplugged and the speaker volume is on loud.
- Be sure to click allow when the extension asks for microphone access. (If you accidentally click block, you can change your preferences by clicking the video icon in the right side of the omnibox)

Known Bugs:

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
