ABrowser - Private is a fast, privacy-focused browser for iPhone and iPad. Browse with multiple tabs and organize your browsing into separate profiles, each with its own bookmarks, history, and data. Use private sessions for temporary browsing that leaves no trace. Optional proxy settings are built in for users who already manage their own proxy subscriptions and want browser traffic to follow that route. Privacy is part of the product boundary. ABrowser - Private does not collect page URLs, page titles, search text, bookmark contents, profile names, proxy subscription URLs, proxy server addresses, or proxy node names for analytics. Product analytics can be turned off in Settings. No account is required.

About

Vigatamala Browser

The page, cleaned up before it reaches you. Vigatamala is a general-purpose privacy browser you can set as your iOS default. Links from other apps can open here too. It does not chase pop-ups one by one. It works earlier: ad slots, trackers, malicious redirects, cookie notices, and "open in app" walls are handled before the page settles whenever possible. FREE, NOT A TRIAL Everyday browsing β€’ Tab groups: keep work, shopping, and what you are following apart β€’ Pinned tabs: important pages survive swipe-to-close and Close All β€’ Bookmarks and Reading List: park a half-read article for later β€’ Private browsing: private tabs leave no history β€’ Several search engines, right from the address bar Content blocking β€’ Removes ad slots and trackers, and collapses the gaps they leave only where it is clearly safe β€’ Blocks malicious pop-ups and redirects: hijacked tabs, fake download buttons, back-button hijacking β€’ Dismisses cookie notices automatically, so you stop tapping the same button on every site β€’ Closes "open in app" walls by itself, and never taps the install button for you β€’ Fingerprinting protection, and HTTPS everywhere β€’ Built-in rules work out of the box; fuller community filter lists download in-app, free β€’ The shield in the address bar: when one site looks wrong, unblock that site alone Start-page widgets β€’ Currency: a big-button calculator that converts several currencies at once, using central bank reference rates where available β€’ Timer, Weather, Radio, PTT, Toolkit, Fate and Cheer Kit PLUS: SMOOTHER WATCHING AND READING β€’ Background audio β€” switch apps or lock the screen, and audio can keep playing β€’ Picture in Picture β€” one tap in the β‹― menu turns video into a floating window β€’ Play queue and repeat β€” build your own order, repeat one item or the whole list β€’ Resume playback β€” come back to a long video and land where you left off β€’ Reader reflow β€” long articles rebuilt into one clean, continuous read β€’ Continuous reading β€” pull in the next page without going back to the index β€’ Automatic rule updates β€” blocking rules refresh up to three times a day β€’ Hide short-form and end-screen recommendations β€” on supported video sites β€’ More widgets β€” up to ten on the start page (five on the free plan) PRIVACY WITHOUT THE ADJECTIVES No personal sign-up or login is required. To keep Plus tied to this device, the app registers a persistent install identifier with our CISIP backend and syncs subscription transactions. No third-party, ad or analytics SDKs; no IDFA. App Privacy declares IDs, purchases, diagnostics, and server-logged app usage for analytics; none for tracking. Browsing history, searches, bookmarks, viewed media, and coordinates are not sent to us. Diagnostic logs are off by default; when on, URLs keep only the host name, and turning them off deletes them. STRAIGHT TALK Blocking removes most common ad slots and trackers, but sites keep changing: we do not claim to catch every ad, and some pages will still render imperfectly. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS β€’ Plan: Vigatamala Plus, sold as a monthly or a yearly subscription. β€’ Price: in Taiwan, NT$120 per month and NT$690 per year. Prices in other regions are set by your local App Store. β€’ The yearly plan includes a 1-month free trial, which becomes a paid year unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the trial ends. β€’ Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. β€’ The subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. β€’ Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period. β€’ After purchase, you can manage the subscription or turn off auto-renew in your Apple Account settings. β€’ Privacy Policy: https://privacy.link2us.link/ios β€’ Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Questions, or a site that looks wrong?
