Slidepad

Slidepad adds a slide‑in, slide‑out panel to macOS that functions as a lightweight web browser, mimicking the iPad’s Slide Over multitasking experience. The panel can be summoned from the dock and positioned beside the active window, allowing users to browse, view messages, take notes, or control music without switching between full‑screen applications. It is built for macOS 11.4 and later and runs on Apple Silicon hardware.

The tool targets users who want a quick, unobtrusive way to keep web content or auxiliary tasks visible while working in other programs. By keeping the browser in a narrow overlay, it reduces the need to alt‑tab or rearrange windows, supporting a more focused workflow. The software is offered as a stable release with a 30‑day free trial and includes standard privacy and terms documentation.
