Vast Labs
Vast Labs contains experimental features that are not part of the default stable surface.
Labs is disabled on a fresh profile. Enabling Labs reveals additional feature switches. Each Labs feature must still be enabled individually.
Turning a Labs feature off hides and blocks it, but does not automatically delete its local data.
Video & Audio
Section titled “Video & Audio”A local media utility for editing, converting, recording, and downloading video or audio. It runs as a bundled local service and is presented inside Vast.
Network Devices
Section titled “Network Devices”Discovers devices on your local network. It can identify cast targets, audio devices, TVs, routers, printers, NAS systems, computers, smart-home devices, and local web panels.
Discovery is user-triggered. Active probing is separately disabled by default.
Automation
Section titled “Automation”Creates local macros from a limited set of visible browser actions. The current automation model is deliberately constrained and does not provide arbitrary shell execution or arbitrary page-script injection.
Password Manager
Section titled “Password Manager”Provides a local encrypted credential vault, manual CSV import/export, password generation, health checks, save/update prompts, and same-site autofill helpers.
Advanced Diagnostics
Section titled “Advanced Diagnostics”Shows deeper local runtime and site-data information for troubleshooting.
Spoofing tools
Section titled “Spoofing tools”Best-effort controls for user agent, languages, timezone, Do Not Track, hardware-exposed values, WebGL identity, and fixed geolocation.
These controls are experimental and should not be treated as perfect anonymity tools.
