Our tests show that loading, start up, shutdown, search, and navigation speeds all exceed Safari and other popular browsers by a noticeable margin. 2.

In addition this toolbar can be hidden simply by browsing down a web page.

You can view web pages beautifully using the maximum screen real-estate. 3. PRIVATE MODE Private mode can be enabled via settings. In private browsing mode all history, cookies, login details are completely cleared when you exit or swap between apps. No one will know where you've been!

About

Holdspace

Holdspace is a quiet place for links, notes and ideas you want to return to. Keep one item in focus, with the rest waiting in your queue. Finish it when you’re done, or snooze it for tonight, tomorrow or a date you choose. Archived items remain available when you need them. Paste a URL or write a note. Save URLs and plain text from compatible share sheets. Optional link previews add a title and image, and you can turn them off in Settings. Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets bring your current item and queue into view. Snoozed items return to the queue when they’re due. Your queue stays on your device. Holdspace has no account, advertising or analytics. Link previews contact websites; opening links and exporting backups use destinations you choose. Export a portable JSON backup, then restore missing items without replacing your current edits or adding duplicates. A small place to put something down, and pick it up when you’re ready.
