Pin Lock Private Browser is a fast, no-nonsense web browser built around one idea: your browsing is yours. No accounts. No analytics. No trackers of our own. Ever. Only you should access your browsing history in your device. โ€ข PIN-PROTECTED BY DESIGN Lock the app with a 4-12 digit PIN. Enter the correct PIN and your tabs, history and bookmarks open exactly as you left them. Enter any other PIN and a completely fresh, empty browser opens instead - no error, no hint that a real session even exists. There is no PIN recovery: if you forget it, the data it protects stays locked, by design. โ€ข BLOCKS ADS & TRACKERS AUTOMATICALLY Built-in content blocking stops common ad networks, trackers and autoplaying video ads before they load - on by default, no setup required. โ€ข DOWNLOAD FILES AND VIDEOS A built-in downloader lets you download files and video on the pages you visit, and saves it to a private folder, on-device - not your Photos library. You're always responsible for only downloading content you own or have permission to save. โ€ข CHOOSE YOUR SEARCH ENGINE DuckDuckGo, Startpage, Brave Search or Google - pick the default that matches how private you want your searches to be. โ€ข EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE History, bookmarks, downloads and settings live only on your device. We run no servers that collect them, and we couldn't hand over your data if we wanted to - it never reaches us in the first place. โ€ข PRO (OPTIONAL) - Find in Page - search text on any page instantly - Save Page as PDF - straight into your vault Pro is an optional auto-renewing subscription, billed monthly or yearly through the App Store. Manage or cancel anytime in your device's App Store settings. Pin Lock Private Browser is a general-purpose web browser intended for users 18 and older. Like any browser, it can reach the open web; please browse responsibly and in accordance with the law where you live. QUICK START GUIDE, TERMS, FAQ ARE HOSTED ON OUR WEBSITE.
