Pane Browser

Pane Browser is a browser built for actually reading the web. There is no top URL bar, no bottom toolbar, no persistent chrome. The web page fills the entire screen. Everything else hides behind a single floating button on the side β tap it once for a radial menu of back, home, more, and two slots you customize yourself. Designed for one-thumb mobile use: β’ Tap the floating button to open the radial menu β back, home, more, plus your two custom slots. β’ Drag the button anywhere on the screen; it snaps to either edge so it never gets in the way of the page. β’ Swipe from the left edge to go back, with a Safari-style parallax preview of the previous page sliding in. β’ A four-tile shelf on the start screen for the sites you visit most. β’ Tabs, bookmarks, and history live behind the More menu, not above the page. Privacy by default: β’ No accounts, no sign-in, nothing leaves your phone. β’ Bookmarks and history stored on-device only. β’ No analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs. β’ Default search engine is Bing β reachable worldwide without a VPN. Switch to Google or DuckDuckGo in Settings. Pane Browser uses Apple's WKWebView, the same engine as Safari, so every site you visit renders the way it would anywhere else on iOS.
