MORE CONTROL OVER YOUR BROWSING AND PRIVATE FILES PrivateBrowser brings app access protection, browsing data controls and a private space together. Unlock with a passcode or Face ID, decide when to clear website data and keep the content you want in albums inside the app. Browse, bookmark and save with privacy in mind. PROTECT ACCESS TO YOUR PERSONAL CONTENT • Unlock the app with a passcode or Face ID. • Authenticate again when opening bookmarks or your private space. • Keep saved photos, videos and files separate from your iPhone photo library. DECIDE WHAT TO CLEAR, AND WHEN • Clear the current page: reset its tab and remove the associated website data while keeping other tabs open. Other pages from the same site may require a new login. • Clear everything in the browser: close all browsing tabs and remove website data, including cookies and cache. • Set automatic clearing after leaving the app and choose whether website logins are retained. Clearing follows your settings. • Your bookmarks and saved files remain when browsing data is cleared. FROM WEBPAGE TO ALBUM • Open the download preview, choose available items and pick an album. • Save supported photos, videos and files without adding them to Photos. • Import from Photos or Files to bring existing content into the same space. • View and export saved items when you need them. YOUR ALBUMS, YOUR ORGANIZATION • Create and rename albums; move or delete several items at once. • Hide albums individually. Hidden albums stay out of the main list until you enable Show Hidden Albums in Settings. EVERYDAY BROWSING • Use multiple tabs, full-screen browsing and your preferred search engine. • Keep webpage bookmarks separate from your downloaded content. OPTIONAL ACCESS RECORDS Keep the latest 100 failed passcode or Face ID access attempts on this device, with no time-based expiry. Security photos are a separate opt-in feature requiring camera permission, with a visible capture notice. These records and photos are excluded from backups. MORE WITH PRO • Unlimited saving, subject to available device storage. • Block pop-ups and common advertising resources. • Cover-to-clear: while browsing, cover the top of the phone for about 1.5 seconds to hide the page and clear all browser tabs and website data. Your bookmarks and saved files remain. • Dangerous website warnings and downloadable protection rule updates. The downloaded list is checked locally without sending visited addresses to the rule server. Choose yearly Pro or a one-time lifetime purchase. Yearly Pro renews automatically unless canceled; manage it in your Apple Account settings. After it ends, saved items remain available to view, organize and export; saving limits apply to new items. See the purchase screen for local prices. Files stay on the device and may be included in device backups. Downloads depend on the website and format. Protection updates require internet access and cannot identify every unsafe site or block every ad.
