QuickSurf is a secure web browser with built-in proxy support, designed for users who need fast, private browsing through a trusted proxy network. Key features: • Built-in proxy — route your browser traffic through a secure proxy server with one tap. Enable or disable anytime without leaving the browser. • Private tabs — open private browsing sessions that leave no history, cookies, or cached data behind. • Tab manager — manage multiple open tabs with a clean, visual tab switcher. Open as many tabs as you need and switch between them instantly. • Browsing history — easily revisit pages from your regular browsing sessions. • JavaScript control — toggle JavaScript on or off globally for all tabs. • Face ID lock — protect your private browsing session with biometric authentication. • Camera & QR support — scan QR codes directly from the browser bar to navigate to any URL instantly. • Share pages — share any page you are viewing with a single tap using the native iOS share sheet. • Auto-clear private data — choose to have all private tab data automatically wiped when private tabs are closed. QuickSurf routes only your browser traffic — it does not modify your device's system-wide network settings. Your device's other apps and connections are unaffected. Privacy first: QuickSurf does not collect, sell, or share your browsing history. Browsing data for regular tabs is stored only on your device. Private tab data is never written to disk.
