Terrible
Terrible it never connects with my Apple Watch and it’s so laggy. Just a copy of google but a different name! Even uses google as its search engine for itself!
Response from developer
Are all web browsers which offer google search just "copies of google"? You can change the search engine to one of several options, by the way. And you can also visit any site, and most (but not all) should work. You arent' restricted to search.
Pages won’t open (S6, 11 Pro Max)
I’ve tried opening a few pages (google, Facebook, YouTube) but the page never appears. It either says “Stream interrupted” or nothing and after the page supposedly loads nothing shows up even after reloading or resnapping.
Gets the job done
This is perfect for what it needs to do i
Works pretty well, but have a couple of issues
I think this app probably works as well as it can, given the limitations the OS puts on the creator. And, for the most part it works. I have one issue—using the inforgraph watch face, I would like to add the parrity app as a complication, and it shows up on the complications list on the Apple Watch (SE) app, but it will not install as a complication. I have tried uninstalling several times, deleting it from both the iPhone and the watch, but it just doesn’t work. Also, is there a way to set up bookmarks, which would make browsing so much easier? Thank you for this free application.

Thanks for the review! I intend to look into the complication issue at some point. I think with newer watches they added new complication types, and they'll probably just need to each be handled independently. As for bookmarks: if you don't close a page you can flip back to it at any time (you'll be presented with a cached version from the last time you loaded it) and then you can just reload like normal. That's how I do it, anyway. :)
Cool idea, better than nothing, needs a few key features added imo
This is a cool thing to have on your wrist. Only a couple of improvements might be of benefit to some users:
For those without microscopes for eyes - an option to zoom in/out on pages would be appreciated. I can’t find any mention of this on GitHub site nor on the app. If this feature exists and I’m missing it then my apologies.
An option to ignore all redirects would be convenient. Nearly every page brings this up and it gets a little tiresome.
Similarly for the resnap messages - most pages bring this up too, please allow resnaps without asking.
Thank you for your hard work, it’s a cool app to have!

Great!
This app works great for what it was created for. Many times I had found myself wanting to look up simple things but didn’t have my phone just my watch until now! I mean you would want to do research for a paper on this app. But for looking up things like the capital of Alaska or how many days is it until Christmas from your watch this app is perfect! I’m so glad it was created!

An honest review from someone with a new Apple Watch
First things first, thank you for creating a browser for Apple Watch. I searched up everything from google to bing (ugh I know right? Desperate) and I couldn’t find one, until I reached yours. Your browser works magnificently, and I really like the addition of being able to add in the guff of the urls, which is hard to do on Apple Watch (www., .com, etc.) Really, my only complaint is that I stumbled around quite blindly trying to use it, pressing buttons like a madman trying to reach the right menus. Before writing this review, I was thinking “there’s no way to close tabs/pages or clear history” and then 10 minutes later I found it. Other than that any other problems don’t come from the app but the webpages themselves, so solid job 👍. The slightly longer load times do irk me slightly but that might just be my garbage internet combined with the limited processing power of a watch.

Hmmm
So, after having Apple watch and this App a while. I feel both are waste of money for me. Both are not user friendly. Furthermore, what I use the Internet for, would not be of much use on watch...sorry...I just do not think the design of the App is the best for this device. Furthermore, I am waiting a web page to load...10 mins have passed, Parrity is still loading... no it is not my connection.
