DO NOT INSTALL THIS
THIS BROWSER IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED. THE OWNERS DO NOT EVEN HAVE THEIR OWN DOMAIN/WEBSITE OPERATIONAL ANY LONGER.
This browser was great a year ago, one of the best new app only browser mods. It has not been updated for over a year however. The extensions that rely somewhat on their homepage have issues now. Seeing as it is quite difficult to reacquire a lost domain it could be dangerous to trust any new owner of the domain to be the same operators as the previous. Best to move onto a newer app with continuous operation.

Needs an extension function to exclude domains from search results
Often I find certain sources always popping up in search results, and I really donβt want them, because those sites force βupsellβ to app lockdowns on their content. I would rather exclude these from mobile searches. In the create extensions function, we can whitelist domains, but thereβs no function to blacklist domains. I was able to implement a sort of blacklist for certain hard-coded domains with regex, but thatβs a bit convoluted, hard to manage or modify. Actual domain exclusions (with a list, or at least a dedicated function) would be much more useful for extensions than hard-coding specific offenders with custom regex for each search engine.

β οΈWarning: Developer/Company Seems To Be Defunct
While other users have noted that there has not been any updates to the app for a while and that the appβs privacy policy leads to an inexistent/unreachable website, I found some additional evidence that the developer is MIA (I hope they are okay).
The developerβs website and privacy policy page currently have an invalid security certificate that expired back in February 12, 2024. It was last renewed on November 14, 2023 using a Letβs Encrypt 90-day certificate, which are usually renewed automatically. This is a pretty good indicator that the website has been completely abandoned.
The same thing goes for the developerβs other appβs website for Hyper Web. Its website certificate was last issued on November 23, 2023 and expired on February 02, 2024.
I would say be careful of continuing to use the app. Hopefully the dev didnβt have something terrible happen to them.

Could become the complete best browser for ios!
I think this is very much the best browser i have (compared to safari, chrome, and for the extensions, even firefox), and the team making it has done some good work. Although i have some problems, mainly that the help page (Iβm pretty sure) goes to a 404 error. The pop-up ads extension is very helpful, but the main thing I think that would make is easily the best browser is intergrating something like Ublock Origin as an extension, or just have it be intergrated into the browser from the beginning. People would flock to your app!
tl;dr, already the best browser iβve used, but it could be made even better with a full adblocker.
