iCab Mobile is a web browser for iOS. iCab Mobile is customizable in almost all areas and can thus be made into your very own personal browser. PRIVACY: In private mode, no private data is saved permanently. Special private tabs increase privacy even further, with only a small loss of comfort. PROFILES/USER ACCOUNTS: Any number of profiles/user accounts can be created, with each profile having its own settings, bookmarks, etc. Profiles are suitable for an iPad that is used by the whole family, but also for users who want to separate professional and private surfing. TABS, WINDOWS: iCab Mobile can open any number of websites simultaneously in tabs. Tabs can be saved and organized in groups so that they can easily be loaded together again later. Tabs can be protected against accidental closing or overwriting. On the iPad, multiple app instances can be opened as windows (Stage Manager, Split View), even with multiple profiles simultaneously (since iOS 18). FILTERS: Filters can be used to block advertising, trackers, etc. Popular filter lists can be used directly (Easylist, AdBlock Plus, uBlock & compatible), but you can also define your own. USER INTERFACE: The user interface is freely configurable. Action, context and text selection menus, toolbars and gestures can be adapted to your own needs. ACCESSIBLE: The user interface is barrier-free and adapts to the system font size and is compatible with VoiceOver. BOOKMARKS: Bookmarks can be organized in folders. “Smart folders” create special collections based on self-defined rules (e.g. the latest bookmarks from the last 2 weeks). Colored labels allow further categorization. DOWNLOADS: Download any files and manage the files in the download manager, including unpacking/creating ZIP archives, exporting/importing, etc. SEARCH: The app offers a large list of search engines (self-expandable) that you can use to search directly on the web. It is also possible to search on the current page. WEBSITES: You can define what websites can and cannot do. Highlight important content with a highlighter, hide unwanted elements, allow buttons to be clicked automatically (e.g. for cookie messages). Control permissions for camera, microphone and sensor usage. Pro users can even inject JavaScript and CSS code into websites to customize them to their liking. EXPORT/IMPORT: All data can be exported/imported (for creating backups, data synchronization with other devices/apps) WIDGETS: Widgets allow you to control the App and open bookmarks directly from the home screen. Websites can also be displayed directly there. APPLE WATCH: Open websites directly on the Apple Watch (albeit limited). Remotely control iCab Mobile on the iPhone from the Watch. FURTHER FEATURES: - Quick starter - Configurable browser ID (UserAgent) - Full support for international domain names - Simple built-in RSS reader - Kiosk mode - a more limited version of the full-screen mode for kiosk systems. The app includes a store where you can give us a tip via InApp purchase to additionally support the further development of the app. The development of the app takes a lot of time and is a lot of work, which the low purchase price cannot cover. Te sources of income used by the big popular browsers, such as advertising, deals with search engines, tracking etc. are not an option for iCab Mobile. Tipping is completely voluntary and you won't miss out on any important features if you don't tip. However, users who tip will be given the option to change the app icon as a thank you.

See how your site behaves in various browsers by tweaking the user agent. The user agent tells a website which browser and device you're using, and sites use it to decide what to show you. Make Safari present like Chrome, Firefox, Edge, a game console, or a search engine crawler, so you can see how a site behaves in other browsers. Presets - Built-in presets for browsers, apps, search engines, AI crawlers, game consoles, and other devices, including older browsers like Internet Explorer - Create your own presets - Fill in the device's current OS version in your own presets automatically - Update the built-in presets to the latest browser versions, and see where each user agent comes from Site Settings - Set a global user agent for all websites, or a different one for each site - Per-site settings take priority over the global setting - Choose a desktop, tablet, or mobile viewport to change how large a site is shown - Change the user agent for the current site or for all sites from the Unagent extension in Safari Websites may still be able to tell that you're using Safari, for example through browser fingerprinting. Unagent does not change the browser engine Safari uses.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Unagent holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iCab Mobile (Web Browser) has 468 ratings behind it against 59, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of iCab Mobile (Web Browser)'s written reviews are positive against 56% of Unagent's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iCab Mobile (Web Browser) ships an update every 2 weeks, Unagent every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
