What it does

By slide in and slide out, Slidepad brings iPad style multitasking to your Mac. Using Slidepad is as easy as using your dock.

Slidepad is a slide-over browser for Mac that keeps web apps one gesture away without disrupting your workflow.

Slidepad slides in when you need it, then slips away without disrupting your workflow. Move your pointer to a chosen corner or edge to bring Slidepad over your workspace. Move away and it slips back without rearranging your windows. Your pads, profiles, favourites, and preferences follow you from Mac to Mac. Logins and browsing data stay on each device. Bring ad blockers, password managers, and other installed extensions into every pad. Connect Codex, Claude, Cursor, and other compatible tools to webpages you can see and control. Move between personal, work, and client sessions without signing in again. Slidepad becomes home for the web tools people check constantly without wanting another…from slidepad.app
