✨隠れた神ブラウザ✨
👍 Pros:
• Unmatched Customization: It outperforms other browsers when it comes to customization. I use it to enjoy YouTube comfortably by running JS extensions to block ads, enable background playback, and modify the page layout.
• Persistent Zoom: Unlike Safari, the page zoom level doesn't easily reset when navigating. I actually find this much more user-friendly.
• Seamless Extension Support: Being able to run extensions so easily is a complete game-changer (though it's understandable that a few extensions might not work perfectly).
• Beautiful UI: On top of everything, the user interface looks fantastic. Among all the browsers that support extensions, this one is clearly at the very top.
👎 Cons:
• Occasional Rendering Issues: A few websites don't render correctly from time to time. When that happens, I just open them in Safari.
• Landscape Aspect Ratio: In landscape mode, the blank padding on the left and right edges of the screen is a bit annoying. When I want to maximize screen real estate, Safari handles it fine, but Gear falls short here.
• Confusing Private Mode Toggle: Switching between Private and Normal mode can be a little counterintuitive. You have to select the mode from the tab overview, and then tap the "+" button instead of the search box. Since there is no visual feedback when you tap the "+" button, it's hard to realize how it works at first.
• Ad-Block Sensor Issues: Even when I turn off the built-in ad blocker, some ads still get blocked, making it impossible to view sites that detect ad blockers. I’ve started using Safari for these sites as well.
• Toolbar Customization: Since high customization is Gear's biggest strength, having the ability to customize the toolbar would make it even better. (For instance, some users might prefer a "Forward" button over the "Extensions" shortcut).

カスタマイズ性において他のブラウザより優れています。
私はYouTubeをjs拡張で広告オフ、バックグラウンド再生、画面配置の変更などをして快適に使っています。
画面拡大もsafariと違い簡単には戻らないのが、逆に使いやすいです。ともかく拡張機能が簡単に使えるのが革新的です(動作しない拡張機能があるのはしょうがないですが)。
あと、UIも素敵です。
拡張機能が使えるブラウザの中では明らかに最高峰です。
👎
ただ、まれに表示が崩れるサイトがありますね。そういう時はsafariで開いています。
画面を横にした時の、画面の左右の端の空白がしつこいですね。画面を広く取りたい時など、safariではできますが、gearではできないです。
また、シークレットモードと通常モードの切り替えがややわかりにくいかも知れません。
タブ一覧からモードを選択して、検索ボックスではなく+ボタンを押さないといけないです。
+ボタンを押した時に視覚的な変化がないため、仕様に気づきにくいです。
あと、広告除去をオフにしても広告が除去されることがあるため、広告除去を感知するサイトを閲覧できません。これも今はsafariで見るようにしています。
また、カスタマイズ性の高さがgearブラウザの良さだと思っているので、ツールバーのカスタマイズがあるとより良いと思います。(拡張機能を開くボタンよりもブラウザフォワードボタンの方がいい人もいるかも知れません)。
追記:
いつの間にか表示の崩れるサイトは直ってました。サイト側の問題だったかもしれないです。
Tab navigation is a weak point
Needs just a little bit of work.
Basically, Be The Good Guy
I walk out without the beacon quicker than Apple can be the furthest entrance away. It’s still their mall, however you’re the only two around.
“I won’t use it,” you say. And the Gear Browser has a token. It’s still an optional Safari extension you can click on for reasons unexplained.
The Discover card has an addon like that, too. You leave the coupon magazine toggle in Safari on, been here, with the Pentagon.
When you get to Gear, ask for Aswin Venkat. They’re at Google. Tell them to take to Lyra. That’s your favorite extension.
I say bye again, thankful.
Bait and switch.
needs more customisation
also thought i may aswell mention the extension compatibility is quite off - a decent amount of my extensions just don’t work - especially if they have a login menu. e.g coupon extensions.
thanks!
Error grave
Amazing browser
サイト拡大がバグる
Очень хорош 🔥
Extensions not working
I’m giving you 3 stars and if you work on it I’ll give all 5 stars
Response from developer
Thank you for your feedback. Because the WebKit browser engine used on iOS differs from desktop browser engines, some extensions may not be optimized for mobile compatibility and therefore may not provide a complete experience. Some extension developer may also provide a version for iOS, but you need to find out and install that. If you encounter any extensions that do not work properly, please feel free to contact us directly at contact@gear4.app. We will test the issue and get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks!
What is going on??
Reverse Image Search
And it's should open in new tab instead.
# When you do image search with Yandex, it's put image url into search box instead of using Yandex lens.
Response from developer
Hello, thank you for your feedback. We will improve that. Yandex's image search service seemed to have been down before, but it has now been restored.

Thank you for your suggestions. We will consider that.
Aesthetic But Missing Things
Response from developer
Thank you for your feedback. The browser home screen is not a web page element, so you cannot set a web site as the home screen. But you can customize it by long press the empty area. The search engine options are deeply optimized with the browser. We will have a plan for customization in the further.
Visual mode doesn’t work
BROWSER IS A GIMMICK
Need you to add pin tabs. Please look at safari on iPad they way it’s set up.
