Panezo puts two websites on one iPhone screen, one above the other, with a notebook built in. Read in one pane while you write, search or compare in the other — no more switching back and forth between tabs and apps. NEW IN 1.2 • Full-screen focus: expand one pane with a tap, then snap back to split. Both pages keep their scroll position. • Turn your iPhone sideways for left and right panes. • Open any link in Panezo from Safari's Share button. • Favorites and history, suggested as you type an address • Find on Page and Request Desktop Website in each pane • Pull down to refresh EVERYDAY USE • Compare two products, hotels or recipes side by side • Read an article above and look up words or places below • Follow a map while you check opening hours or reviews • Study with your source above and your notes below • Keep a quick Scratch note beside any website FOR WORK • Keep two sources open while you research • Write notes beside the page you are reading, then save them to Notebook • Compare the readable text of two pages and keep the findings you choose in Research • Save a workspace — both pages, pane types and layout — and restore it later • Use two web-based work services at the same time BUILT FOR ONE HAND AND A SMALL SCREEN • Drag the divider to resize, swap the panes, or focus on one pane • Each pane has its own back, forward and reload, and scrolls and types independently • Controls stay out of the way until you tap a pane's small handle YOUR WORK STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE • Scratch notes, Notebook, Research, favorites, history and saved workspaces are stored locally • No Panezo account, no ads, no analytics, no in-app purchases • A Scratch note saved to Notebook stays linked: later edits update the same note Good to know: Panezo shows websites and its own native notes; it does not embed other installed apps. Website sign-in, video and downloads depend on each website. Both panes share website data such as cookies. Panezo is not affiliated with the websites you visit. Browsing connects to the websites you choose; it is not anonymous browsing. Made by Ilyas A. Almadani · PT Jiji Labs Digital
