Verge brings everyday browsing and an optional AI assistant together in one app. Open your favorite websites, keep useful pages close, and ask for help without leaving the browser. Use voice or chat to describe what you want to do, while keeping the page and the assistant within reach. Connect the AI service you choose. Set your provider's Base URL, model name, and API key, then test the connection and tool support before starting a task. Verge supports compatible HTTPS services using Chat Completions or Responses API. Your selected model must support tool calling to operate the browser. AI is optional and can be enabled or disabled in Settings. Speak when typing feels inconvenient. Tap the floating AI button, say what you need, and let Verge submit your request after a short pause. You can also end recording and run the request yourself. Ask the assistant to open a website, search for information, read a page, or help you work through supported browser actions. Use the assistant for focused browser work. It can navigate, search, review visible text, click supported controls, enter text, choose options, scroll, find content, and manage task tabs. Some actions may ask for approval first. Prefer a conversation? Press and hold the AI button to open the chat panel. Type a request, review the assistant's replies and activity, and send a follow-up when the task is finished. Collapse the panel to return to the page while keeping the current conversation available during the same app session. Keep your assistant where it suits you. Drag the floating button to a comfortable spot on the screen. When the address bar and bottom toolbar are hidden, an active task appears in a compact status capsule beside the button. The capsule moves with it, giving you a quick way to reopen the conversation or stop the task. Stay involved as the assistant works. Check its current status, review requests for approval when required, or stop execution at any time. Turning AI off or moving the app into the background stops recording and active tasks. Private tabs are excluded from AI tasks, so start an assistant session from a regular tab. Browse with familiar essentials. Open and switch between tabs, revisit your history, save bookmarks, find text within a page, and share links. The start page offers quick access to websites, while the address field lets you enter a URL or search using Google, Bing, or DuckDuckGo. Make room for the content. Verge can tuck away the address bar and bottom toolbar as you browse, leaving more of the page visible while retaining a compact domain display. Choose the default website identity, Desktop Safari, or a custom User-Agent when a site needs a different presentation. Keep downloads organized. View downloaded files in the browser's download library and manage them alongside your browsing. Supported web videos can be saved when a downloadable source is available. Download availability depends on the website and the media format. For advanced workflows, Verge includes an optional Model Context Protocol service. Connect a compatible MCP client to supported browser tools, configure the service port, and manage its access key. Access to your regular browsing profile requires a separate setting and confirmation. You can also configure proxy profiles for browser and download traffic. Choose English or Simplified Chinese for the app, or follow your system language. The AI interface follows your selection, including settings, controls, and activity messages. Your own prompts and the model's replies stay in the language in which they were written. AI requests send the selected page content and conversation to the model service you configure. API keys are stored in the device's Keychain. Voice input prefers on-device recognition and may use Apple's speech service when needed. Model access, availability, and any usage charges depend on your provider. Verge gives you the tools to bring that service into your browsing routine.

About

Meettap

Never text "where are you?" again. Outside a station. At a festival. Inside a huge mall. The map says you have arrived, but you still cannot find your family or your friend. You call, you look around, and you still walk past one another. The slowest part of meeting someone is the last hundred feet. Meettap is for meeting up with someone you have already arranged to see. It takes care of exactly that last stretch. ■ All you do is send a link Tap Start and a link is created, ready to send. Messages, email - anywhere you can paste a link works. If they are already in front of you, just show them the QR code. When they open the link, both screens show an arrow pointing at the other person and the distance between you. The arrow gets more precise as you close in, and the screen lights up when you are face to face. There is nothing to read. You just walk the way the arrow points. ■ Where it helps You reach the meeting point and cannot spot your family. You lose a friend in a festival crowd. You arrive at a station on a work trip to join a colleague. You look for someone who went ahead to the car in a huge parking lot. Every one of these is the same situation: they are close by, just not visible. ■ They do not need to install anything Whoever receives the link can meet you without installing the app. You never have to ask anyone to "download this first". ■ Only the two of you The only person you connect to is the one you handed the link to. Sharing is always equal - one side can never watch the other. It happens only while the app is open, stops when you close it, and nothing is tracked in the background. ■ It disappears when you are done The link stops working the moment you meet. The same happens if either side ends it, or after three hours. It is single use, so nobody can open it later. No meet-up history is kept on our server. ■ Keeping a record is your choice When you find each other, you can keep that one meet-up. Nothing is saved by default. Only on the occasions you tap "Save this meet-up" does this iPhone store how far apart you started and how long it took. The app has no way of knowing who the other person is, so any name is one you type yourself. You can delete records at any time. ■ Apple Watch Start a meet-up on your iPhone and the distance and arrow appear on your wrist, so you do not have to hold your phone up in a crowd. The Watch mirrors what the iPhone shows, so every generation of Apple Watch works. ■ Pricing Five meet-ups a month are free. For people who meet up more often, Meettap Pro raises that to twenty, as a one-time purchase - not a subscription. Only meet-ups where the other person actually joined are counted, and a meet-up in progress is never interrupted. Whoever receives your link is always free. - - - No account required. We do not register or collect your name, email address or phone number. There are no ads. To improve the app we record totals only - how many times actions such as "a link was created" or "two people met" happened. No identifier for you or your device is ever attached, so who, when and where simply do not exist in the data, and nothing is shared with any third party. Compatibility: iPhone 11 and later show more precise distance and direction (excluding iPhone SE and iPhone 16e). On other models you can still meet up using approximate direction and distance.
