### 5/5 — Wonderful Web Browser for iOS!

*2015-03-08*

This is probably one of the best web browsers on iOS to date! It even beats Chrome in speed and resources. It runs well, works efficiently, and there are a lot of utilities this browser has that others don't. While it is not perfect and has minor flaws and errors that I'm sure will be fixed overtime, this browser is defiantly a must-get! Even the full version is worth the pay! Great this app, 5/5!
