But, there are none like that can compare to this one. I’ve only had this app for about a week and I enjoy the Tornado BUTTON!. Just use it one time and will see what i see. Enjoy friends! ### 5/5 — Good site *2025-01-31, version 3.2.2* Good and secure browser I love this ### 5/5 — Awesome *2025-01-29, version 3.2.2* I like the app; and do not know what to do with it. ### 5/5 — Femi olaoluwa babatunde *2025-01-26, version 3.2.2* Femi olaoluwa babatunde ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-12-28, version 3.2.2* Great app. Just wish I could set it as my default browser ### 3/5 — Full screen previews *2024-12-13, version 3.2.2* Please add an option so that videos playing don’t automatically go full screen. ### 5/5 — A long time user fan of the brains of IB" Private Internet Access" VPN. 7 years *2024-08-11* It's a cool super simple, super light weight browser that doesn't dig into your devices brains. Private, Quick, easy.......The opposite of Brave. I love that big monster but IB is sleek ....no fuss......go try installing Microsoft Edge.....that's was a pleasant(not) memory of working with Windows products. I was just looking around for light weight browser.....and it was already on my iPad,computer etc.....Support the little guys!!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Quite *2026-03-08, version 3.2.2* Simple ### 1/5 — Asking for 6-digit pincode to unlock my data *2026-02-19* The title says it all, but it specifically said “…we need to unlock your data.” Well, no. ### 1/5 — Terrible! *2026-01-02, version 3.2.2* Who ever designed this, has never used their app on a phone. Please suffocate your development teams with plastic bags. They are terrible at their jobs and shouldn’t be allowed to continue. Learn how to have an option to open into a new tab, or please don’t wake up you waste of oxygen and resources ### 1/5 — Aight *2025-01-30, version 3.2.2* Bet ### 1/5 — not possible to stag logged in *2024-05-02, version 3.2.2* not possible to stag logged in on the website ### 1/5 — Not great *2023-07-30, version 3.2.2* Not happy with this browser ### 1/5 — Not recommended *2023-07-23* Example of how to update an app and screw up what worked. Videos don't play, photos are downloaded into the folder automatically. I don't recommend anymore. I used it for years and it's time to look for another app. ### 1/5 — IB *2023-04-23, version 3.1.0* One star is the lowest rating… if could rate it lower, like ZERO, I would! Reason is it’s completely useless and can not be used so a rating is not possible. Tried everything but to no avail. Good luck to future downloaders. ### 1/5 — Unreliable *2023-04-11, version 3.1.0* It’s 50/50 if it works. ### 1/5 — Big brother? *2023-03-10, version 3.0.4* Used to be great no history but now it’s an option that could be undone by another app or update. Browser will also not go landscape. I’ll stop using. It’s also exposing me when I use your own In Browser and I have to reset everything and try again. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works great *2026-04-18, version 3.2.2* Easy to use ### 5/5 — InBrowser *2026-02-14, version 3.2.2* Finally simple and free to use!!! ### 5/5 — MĘŠŲŤ *2026-01-25, version 3.2.2* Mesut ### 5/5 — Mogan *2025-12-05, version 3.2.2* Ellison ### 5/5 — My favorite *2025-10-01, version 3.2.2* The best and preferred option ### 5/5 — 2MMQCR *2025-09-26, version 3.2.2* BFGWQR ### 5/5 — Michael smart *2025-09-07, version 3.2.2* Personal access ### 5/5 — Great 😊🙈 *2025-08-10, version 3.2.2* 👌🏿😜 ### 5/5 — BEST PRIVACY BROWSER I HAVE EVER SEEN *2025-08-04, version 3.2.2* This is the best privacy browser I have ever seen I won't have given it a 50 star if I had to great job private internet access vpn ### 5/5 — In browser *2025-05-13, version 3.2.2* Good 👍 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
