FullFrame is the browser that gets out of your way. Most browsers surround your content with toolbars, tabs, address bars, and buttons. FullFrame strips all of that away the moment you start browsing, giving you a full-screen, edge-to-edge view of every website you visit. No clutter, no chrome, just content. When you need the toolbar, it's always one double-tap away. When you don't, it vanishes completely. Features: - Full-screen browsing. Toolbars hide automatically so websites fill the entire screen. - Double-tap with two fingers to instantly show or hide the toolbar. - Tabbed browsing. Open and manage multiple tabs side by side. - Incognito tabs. Browse privately with no cookies, cache, or history saved. - Bookmarks. Save and revisit your favourite pages in one tap. - History. Quickly jump back to recently visited pages. - Download support. Save files and media directly to your device. - Camera, microphone, and location support for any website that needs them. - Keeps the screen on, perfect for displaying content in a fixed location. - All orientations supported, portrait and landscape on iPhone and iPad.
