vFAPS Sync is a Chrome browser extension that bridges video playing in any browser tab to the vFAPS desktop application, enabling real-time funscript synchronization with connected devices without any file management or manual configuration.
Overview §
vFAPS Sync solves a gap in the funscript ecosystem: most script players require either a locally stored video file or a specific platform integration to synchronize devices. vFAPS Sync adds a universal adapter layer at the browser level, so any video playing in Chrome — regardless of the website — can drive connected hardware through the vFAPS output engine.
Communication between the extension and the desktop app runs over a local WebSocket connection on localhost. No data is transmitted to external servers.
How It Works §
- The user clicks the extension icon and enables it on the current tab
- The extension locates the video element on the page and connects to vFAPS over a localhost WebSocket
- When a video is detected, the extension identifies what is being watched and searches the user's local script library and the FAP Store for a matching funscript
- Playback position, play/pause state, seek events, and playback speed stream continuously to vFAPS
- vFAPS drives connected devices in sync — the same output quality as HereSphere or any dedicated player
Site Adapters §
vFAPS Sync ships with site-specific adapters for platforms that use custom or non-standard video players. Sites with dedicated adapters include:
- Major sites: Pornhub, xVideos, xHamster, XNXX, Eporner
- Studio sites: Brazzers, BangBros, Vixen, TeamSkeet, Reality Kings, Naughty America, Adult Time
- Alternative: Mega, Gofile, YouTube
- Niche: Kink, PMV Haven, Rule34Video
A generic HTML5 video adapter handles any site using a standard <video> element, providing broad compatibility beyond the explicitly listed platforms. Adapters are actively maintained and expanded.
Privacy §
vFAPS Sync is designed to be entirely local:
- No cloud servers or external endpoints are contacted
- No viewing data, URLs, or usage information is collected or transmitted
- All communication is over
ws://localhost
Availability §
vFAPS Sync is currently in beta, available to Power User tier Patreon supporters. A Chrome Web Store listing is pending review and is expected to be included in the next public vFAPS release.
