Veil Lens is a privacy-aware iPhone browser that helps you see what watches you while you browse. ON-DEVICE TRANSPARENCY Veil observes tracker activity on pages you visit and summarizes it in plain English. History, tracker signals, and privacy scores are designed to stay on your iPhone. Veil does not build a cloud browsing profile. VEIL REPORT Open Report on any page to see vendors and categories Veil detected. These are automated inferences from incomplete signals. They can be wrong. Nothing is blocked. Veil shows, you decide. VEIL SEARCH Search the web with privacy-aware ranking. Sites you’ve visited in Veil can show a Veil Score, higher means lower tracking exposure (weighted from what Veil observed, not just a raw tracker count). Scores stay on this device. RABBIT HOLE An optional link-hopping game that uses the same tracker lens. Fun side mode, not required for browsing. YOUR USUAL SEARCH STILL WORKS Prefer Google, Bing, or DuckDuckGo? Open them in the address bar or from bookmarks. Veil Search is optional. BUILT FOR CLARITY • Address bar for websites; Search button for Veil Search • Scan screen (optional) to read what’s visible on the page • Save PDFs via Share → Save to Files • Themes, retention controls, and clear browsing vs clear search scores separately Veil is a transparency tool, not a VPN, not an ad blocker, and not a guarantee that any site is “safe.” Third-party websites have their own terms and privacy practices.
