Browse the web on your Apple Watch easily! - Unified URL/search bar - Changeable search engine - Searchable history* - Bookmarks that you can name - Favicons ...and more! Make sure that the webview that the app uses supports the website you want to use. You can test that by asking Siri on your watch to open a website for you. If the webview that comes up displays the website fine and all necessary functions work, you're good to go with this app as well, since it uses the same webview. *The history only saves pages that have been directly opened from the app
