Fast Forward for quick access to next page and logins

Fast Forward is a feature which lets you quickly access the next page in a series of pages, or log in using the Wand, simply by navigating forward.

Fast Forward tries to analyze a page and looks for links that will take you to the next page, for example after a search with Google with several pages of search results. It looks for certain patterns that indicate a "next" link, or uses "<link rel="next">" if it is defined in the page.

When the "Forward" Main bar icon changes to indicate "Next", you can click the "Next" button or use the keyboard shortcut or mouse gesture for going forward to access the next page.

Fast Forward will also be activated if you open a page which requires a username and password if you have previously used the Wand to save your login information. The "Forward" Main bar icon will change to "Log in", and clicking the "Log in" button or using the keyboard shortcut or mouse gesture for going forward will log you in.

Please note that Fast Forward does not use any external services to determine the next page. It only looks at the current page and tries to find things that indicate that there is a "next" page. It does not look it up from an external server or contact any site to get this info.

Fast Forward does not download anything before the user opens the next page.

Tip: If you find Fast Forward useful, Rewind will let you navigate quickly to certain points in your browsing history.
