## What is FREE Private Incognito Browser?

A FREE Google Chrome look-alike browser for private, full screen browsing needs.

When you browse the web, Safari stores information about the websites you visit, including the content and any user names and passwords you enter. Other people who use your device can view that information. If you don’t want this information stored, use this free application.

Webpages are not added to your history list, the names of downloads are not listed, AutoFill information isn’t saved, and searches are not added to the pop-up menu in the search field.

Any changes made to cookies are discarded when you quit the application.

= FEATURES

* 100% private browsing
* Very fast and a tiny download (56x smaller than Facebook app)
* FREE with *no ads* while browsing
* Both landscape and portrait mode supported
* Fully iOS7 compliant

= HOW DOES IT WORK?

When you close your application, all traces of your browsing will disappear including your browsing history, cookies, bookmarks, images and videos. Next time the application is started, it's back to a fresh start.

### 5/5 — Rlly good!

*2026-04-07, version 1.10.0*

This is a pretty good browser, I originally downloaded it because it was skeuomorphic but even tho you removed the retro design its really good for an incognito browser! Only thing is that some guy is using this browser to watch porn, but thats just their messed up problem, not the browser

### 1/5 — Not good

*2022-03-07, version 1.9.8*

No sound on video

### 1/5 — Weird

*2020-02-04, version 1.9.8*

Doesn't let me watch videos on youtube or -any website. Even if it , there’s no audio. Not even on the NFL website...

### 5/5 — Cool

*2017-08-13, version 1.9.8*

Its a good browsing app

### 1/5 — Was good before until

*2017-08-01, version 1.9.8*

When I double click to exit the app, there's an image of a website I browsed a while ago and it's stuck there and anyone can see it. The whole point of this browser is that once you exit the app; there's no trace of what you browsed. But instead there's a full display of what you've been searching. It's so annoying, the image won't go away.

### 1/5 — New search engine

*2017-05-25, version 1.9.8*

Go back to the old one !!

### 5/5 — Truth

*2017-02-22, version 1.9.5*

ah the fact I get this for porn is great

### 2/5 — Too many pop up ads

*2016-09-28, version 1.9.5*

Since iOS 10, pop up ads are so bad they knock you off the app.

### 1/5 — Dont pay!!!

*2016-03-24, version 1.9.4*

Whatever your u do, don't pay the $5 to upgrade the app. Nothing will happen and you would have thrown $5 in the toilet. I want a refund.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-12-02, version 1.9.4*
