Read full descriptionHide full description
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.
MiruMado Focus Browser
Read full descriptionHide full description
MiruMado is a privacy-focused in-app browser that lets you keep only the part of a web page you need visible in a small focus window. It is useful for checking markets, weather, news headlines, sports scores, delivery pages, reservations, and other web information without keeping the whole page visually prominent. You can browse normally, create a focus window, hide surrounding areas with dimming or blackout, and reopen saved pages from quick links or favorites. Browser tools such as translation, desktop site mode, text size adjustment, display repair, and ad blocking help make pages easier to view. Saved URLs, focus windows, favorites, and settings stay on your device. MiruMado does not require an account, does not include an advertising SDK, does not send browsing history to an external server, and does not scrape or collect web page contents.
