OneBrowse

About

OneBrowse is a browser for the one or two sites you actually use: the news, sports and recipe sites that fight you on a phone. Pin a site and it becomes a button. Open it from that button and everything the site throws at you is stopped before you see it: pop-ups, pop-unders, newsletter boxes, cookie walls, scroll locks and redirect hijacks. FREE. NO ADS. NO SUBSCRIPTIONS. There is nothing to buy and nothing to unlock. OneBrowse has no server, so nothing about you is sent anywhere. HOW IT WORKS • Pop-up windows and new tabs are refused inside the page, before the page's own code runs. • Overlays that cover the page are cleared and scrolling is unlocked. • Site Lock keeps a pinned site on its own domain: redirects to other sites are dropped without asking. • Cookie banners are answered with "reject" for you, so the site stops waiting for a click. • Tracking codes are cut from links before they load. • The same filter lists the big ad blockers use ship inside the app and refresh weekly. THREE LEVELS, PER SITE Standard stops pop-ups and leaves the page alone. Strict also removes the boxes that cover a page. Nuclear strips sticky bars, chat bubbles and anything pinned over the content. Every site keeps its own level, and a site that will not work can be paused with one tap. SEE WHAT IT STOPPED What Was Blocked shows every site, every day, by kind, so you can see the protection doing something. BROWSE ANYTHING Free Browse gives you tabs, private tabs, reader view, downloads and a desktop-site switch, with the same blocking on every page. Make any page an app with one tap. ON IPHONE AND IPAD Sign in with Apple, if you want to, and your pinned sites, favourites and settings follow you over iCloud. No account is needed to use the app. A Mac version is on its way. AirPlay sends a site's video to your TV rather than mirroring the screen, so the picture stays full resolution.
