### 1/5 — ارجوكم بدون اعلانات

*2026-06-23, version 10.11*

الاعلانات تعيق البحث وتقلل من جودة البرنامج

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-06-12, version 10.10*

Ads every 30 seconds for free use is wild

### 1/5 — ADS GALORE

*2026-06-11, version 10.10*

My FIRST review ever on an app where I deleted it in 10 seconds after being spammed ads on a FREAKING browser. The developer should be ashamed. DO NOT engage with this app

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-06-10, version 10.10*

Complete rubbish. Owned this app for years. Used to be useable when the devs weren’t greedy moneygrubbing gluttons but now is impossible to use due to the constant barrage of ads. Terrible app. should be removed from the App Store.

### 1/5 — Hate ads

*2026-06-03, version 10.10*

Worst thing you can do to an app like this is unskippable ads. Don't download this app

### 1/5 — Absolute worst

*2026-06-01, version 10.10*

Gives u a ad in every 5 second. Cant even let u type without an ad. Had to watch 3 ads before i could even type the url. Waste of time

### 1/5 — Ads are too frequent

*2026-05-25, version 10.10*

More than okay to watch ads to support a free version but getting them every 20 seconds or after every action is not a good user experience

### 1/5 — BS APP Hate when

*2026-05-19, version 10.10*

It really annoys me how these app developers immediately insist you pay for an app before trying it out. Furthermore they hold you hostage watching ads before you try the app. This goes even further if you touch anywhere during the playing of the ad to close it out etc the ad starts over. That was enough for me it happen three times so I deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Just like Ariel… you get 3 days….

*2026-05-07, version 10.10*

Completely unacceptable. The core functionality is broken, yet the app is overloaded with ads. It's alarming that a company can secure this much ad revenue for a product that doesn't actually work

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-05-07, version 10.10*

An ad after 3 seconds of using it. Wtf

### 1/5 — Used to be good but now unusable

*2026-05-05, version 10.10*

Every time you do anything it makes you watch an advert. Use Zoomable instead

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-05-04, version 10.10*

Purchased their Plus model for no ads, but I’m still forced to watch ads before visiting any site. 

This app is a scam.

### 1/5 — Milking ads

*2026-04-28, version 10.10*

Keeps asking to show ads every 5 mins

### 1/5 — Obnoxious ads render app useless

*2026-04-27, version 10.10*

Nothing to add.

### 1/5 — Wants you to watch ADS every MINUTE

*2026-04-06, version 10.10*

Its hilariously predatory

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-04-06, version 10.10*

Nothing but adds

### 1/5 — Полная шляпа. Не тратьте время.

*2026-04-03, version 10.10*

Пока открывал первый сайт посмотрел четыре рекламных блока, состоящих из нескольких роликов. Сайт так и не дождался.
Даже не могу представить, кем надо быть , чтобы делать такие приложения (это очень очень мягко).

### 1/5 — Full screen Not Supported

*2026-08-21, version 10.15*

I needed a desktop browser for a writing assignment on my ipad, but when I used this, it said "Your browser does not support fullscreen writing mode."

### 1/5 — Terrible!

*2026-08-11, version 10.14*

I downloaded this app only to be blasted with adds to upgrade it, with no prices listed.  The initial download looks to be free, but it is unusable unless you sign-up for the paid version, and they don’t even tell you how much it costs.  I’m deleting it!

### 1/5 — Toon many ads and bugs

*2026-08-06, version 10.14*

Buggy app with too many ads

*2026-07-31, version 10.14*

Ads every 30 seconds for free use is wild. App didn’t use to be like this

*2026-07-25, version 10.13*

Save info

### 1/5 — How the mighty fall

*2026-07-22, version 10.13*

Was good a couple years ago, not you watch an ad on every action. Go to an alternative in 2026

### 1/5 — Not good

*2026-07-18, version 10.12*

Very bad app

### 1/5 — Sucks

*2026-07-05, version 10.11*

They beat you up with ads

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2026-07-04, version 10.11*

I opened the app, tapped “browse” typed in about four characters and was interrupted by a popup saying an ad will be shown.

### 1/5 — don’t bother unless you want to pay

*2026-06-24, version 10.11*

spammed ads every time you enter in a link or search google. even if you watch the ad, you’ll be spammed again if you reload the page. terrible business practices!
