Ohajiki Web Browser is a web browser for iOS and iPadOS that can force any website into dark mode. ■ Dark mode for any site Even when a site doesn't support dark mode, Ohajiki forces every page into a dark color scheme. It eases eye strain during long browsing sessions at night or in dim places, and helps reduce battery consumption on OLED displays. You can switch back to the original colors in bright environments — turn it on only when you need it. ■ Page summaries with Apple Intelligence Pages are summarized by Apple's on-device language model (Foundation Models). The page content is never sent to the cloud, and the resulting summary also stays on your device. You can choose from 16 languages including English, plus an "Auto" option. * Available only on Apple Intelligence-capable devices. ■ Data that stays on your device Bookmarks, page history, QR / ISBN scan results, user scripts, and per-site font sizes are all stored locally. ■ Versatile tab handling Switch tabs with a swipe, reorder them with a long-press drag, and lock tabs to prevent accidental deletion. WebKit session state is saved and restored, so you can pick up right where you left off after a restart. ■ Powerful search Multiple search engines are supported. In-page search, in-site search, and image search are all available, along with book lookup from QR codes and ISBN barcodes. ■ Per-site customization Tune each site to your liking with per-site font sizing, reader view, image blocking, privacy protection (blocks ads & trackers), and a blue-light filter. ■ Private mode Once you close a private tab, the session data created during that tab — browsing history, search queries, cookies — does not remain on your device.
