A private space for your browsing — and a place for your files. Separate personal and everyday browsing with local private spaces. Open yours through the calculator-style entry, keep your bookmarks, history and files in their own space, and return to the public space when you are done. One Browser brings web browsing, local file management, media tools and cross-platform sharing together. No One Browser cloud account is required for local spaces or nearby collaboration. LOCAL PRIVATE SPACES • Enter a separate space with a local password. Keep bookmarks, history, and local files apart. • Each space has its own web sessions, helping you separate work, personal browsing, and other activities. • Exit a private space to return to the public space. LOCAL FILE MANAGEMENT • Organize documents, media and downloads in folders within your current space. Import, rename, copy and move files, and work with ZIP archives. • Open PDFs and images, play local audio and video, and keep useful downloads close at hand. EVERYDAY BROWSING AND USEFUL TOOLS • Return to useful pages with tabs, bookmarks, and history. • Add, edit, remove, and reorder home page shortcuts. • On iPhone, navigation and address bars smoothly collapse during webpage and PDF scrolling. Tap the title or scroll back to expand them. • Track downloads, pause, and resume when the server supports it. Download and merge segments from supported, unencrypted HLS video-on-demand sources. • Open PDFs, images, and local audio and video. Crop, rotate, flip, and resize images; mark up with pens, a highlighter, and shapes; adjust color and filters. PHONE, TABLET, AND COMPUTER • Connect devices on the same trusted local network to exchange text, links, images, and files. • Collaborate with iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Windows devices. Send useful content to the device at hand. • Share the current webpage link directly and continue reading or working on another device. CHOOSE WHAT TO SYNC • Select bookmarks and bookmark folders, with browsing history as an optional addition. • Merge both sets of data or replace one side. Each device uses its own current space. • The receiving device approves the request. The initiator then reviews the counts and confirms. • A local backup lets you restore the categories changed by that sync. FREE USE AND OPTIONAL VIP Basic browsing and single-image editing are free. Without VIP, run one download at a time, complete one HLS download per local calendar day, and successfully save up to three webpage images per batch. Failed HLS downloads do not use the daily allowance. Collaboration supports sending individual files smaller than 10 MB; sending folders requires VIP. Free use includes one private space and three camera-recording uses. An optional monthly auto-renewable VIP subscription removes these paid limits. Price is shown before purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple Account on confirmation. The subscription renews monthly until canceled in system subscription settings. Restore Purchases is available. Downloads and resuming depend on the website, server, and format. HLS live streams, encryption, and DRM are not supported. Download only content you have permission to save. Nearby collaboration requires network permissions. Space separation does not provide anonymous browsing or disk encryption.

Volflow is a fast, private web browser built on Apple's WebKit engine the same engine as Safari. It opens in normal mode so your tabs, history and sessions stay right where you left them, and a Face ID-protected private mode is one tap away whenever you need it. PRIVATE WHEN YOU WANT IT Volflow starts in normal browsing mode, so your history, tabs and sessions persist locally on your device nothing leaves it. When you want a clean slate, open the tab switcher and switch to Private mode in one tap. Private mode is per-session and ephemeral: nothing is saved, and it's protected by Face ID, Touch ID or your device passcode so only you can reopen it. Safari-style tab groups keep your Tabs and Private tabs cleanly separated. ON-DEVICE AD & TRACKER BLOCKING Volflow blocks ads and trackers directly on your device using updatable filter lists EasyList for ads, EasyPrivacy for trackers, plus Turkish filters 110,000+ rules combined. Pages load faster and cleaner, and the lists refresh so protection stays current. PRIVACY YOU CAN TRUST • No accounts, no analytics, no tracking or advertising SDKs, and no data collection by the developer. • Bookmarks, history, downloads and settings are stored locally only. History and searches are recorded only in normal mode never in private mode. • Optional page translation uses Google Translate. It is off by default and user-initiated; only the pages you choose to translate are sent to Google for translation. This is the one feature that contacts a third party. Everything else stays on your device. FEATURES • Normal mode that remembers your tabs, history and sessions • Face ID / Touch ID / passcode-protected private mode (per-session, nothing saved) • Safari-style tab groups (Tabs / Private) and a tab switcher with search • Multiple tabs, bookmarks, history and downloads • Find on page, pull to refresh, and iPad multi-window • Offline video player for downloaded videos • Google Lens image search • Selectable search engine (DuckDuckGo by default, or Google) • Optional per-network connection profiles and custom DNS for reliable page loads • Optional page translation via Google Translate • Built on Apple WebKit the same engine as Safari Volflow is a privacy-respecting browser, not an anonymity service. It does not hide your identity or change your IP address.
