iCab Mobile (Web Browser)

Published by: Alexander Clauss

Description

iCab Mobile is a web browser for iOS. iCab Mobile is customizable in almost all areas and can thus be made into your very own personal browser.
PRIVACY:
In private mode, no private data is saved permanently. Special private tabs increase privacy even further, with only a small loss of comfort.
PROFILES/USER ACCOUNTS:
Any number of profiles/user accounts can be created, with each profile having its own settings, bookmarks, etc. Profiles are suitable for an iPad that is used by the whole family, but also for users who want to separate professional and private surfing.
TABS, WINDOWS:
iCab Mobile can open any number of websites simultaneously in tabs. Tabs can be saved and organized in groups so that they can easily be loaded together again later. Tabs can be protected against accidental closing or overwriting.
On the iPad, multiple app instances can be opened as windows (Stage Manager, Split View), even with multiple profiles simultaneously (since iOS 18).
FILTERS:
Filters can be used to block advertising, trackers, etc. Popular filter lists can be used directly (Easylist, AdBlock Plus, uBlock & compatible), but you can also define your own.
USER INTERFACE:
The user interface is freely configurable. Action, context and text selection menus, toolbars and gestures can be adapted to your own needs.
ACCESSIBLE:
The user interface is barrier-free and adapts to the system font size and is compatible with VoiceOver.
BOOKMARKS:
Bookmarks can be organized in folders. “Smart folders” create special collections based on self-defined rules (e.g. the latest bookmarks from the last 2 weeks). Colored labels allow further categorization.
DOWNLOADS:
Download any files and manage the files in the download manager, including unpacking/creating ZIP archives, exporting/importing, etc.
SEARCH:
The app offers a large list of search engines (self-expandable) that you can use to search directly on the web. It is also possible to search on the current page.
WEBSITES:
You can define what websites can and cannot do. Highlight important content with a highlighter, hide unwanted elements, allow buttons to be clicked automatically (e.g. for cookie messages). Control permissions for camera, microphone and sensor usage. Pro users can even inject JavaScript and CSS code into websites to customize them to their liking.
EXPORT/IMPORT:
All data can be exported/imported (for creating backups, data synchronization with other devices/apps)
WIDGETS:
Widgets allow you to control the App and open bookmarks directly from the home screen. Websites can also be displayed directly there.
APPLE WATCH:
Open websites directly on the Apple Watch (albeit limited). Remotely control iCab Mobile on the iPhone from the Watch.
FURTHER FEATURES:
- Quick starter
- Configurable browser ID (UserAgent)
- Full support for international domain names
- Simple built-in RSS reader
- Kiosk mode - a more limited version of the full-screen mode for kiosk systems.

The app includes a store where you can give us a tip via InApp purchase to additionally support the further development of the app. The development of the app takes a lot of time and is a lot of work, which the low purchase price cannot cover. Te sources of income used by the big popular browsers, such as advertising, deals with search engines, tracking etc. are not an option for iCab Mobile.
Tipping is completely voluntary and you won't miss out on any important features if you don't tip. However, users who tip will be given the option to change the app icon as a thank you.

iCab Mobile (Web Browser) Reviews

Suddenly terrible

GingerKarma on

Australia

I don’t know what just happened, but so many things in this browser just stopped working properly. I did an update, now my settings have vanished, my stored forms have vanished, all the pages I had open are changing to about:Blank… the list just goes on and on. Every time I use it now I notice something else broken that I know was working before. Lots of things like download time remaining I could excuse, but losing my open pages and passwords is failing at the most basic tasks a browser needs to perform. This has been my main browser for many years, but I think the time has come to move on.

Great app

Been using it daily on my phone for years. Can't fault it. 👍🏻

Swiss-Army knife of browsers

Antondahood on

Australia

A very well made and long-serving fully featured browser. tonnes of options and no irritating in-app. Well worth the donation though!

Great App

GCATF on

Australia

This is a terrific App. I only believe reviews are worth posting after a reasonable period of use. I have found iCabMobile to be fast, stable, and easy to use. Alexander is incredibly responsive and interested in feedback. Pretty well all the minor issues I have reported to him have been beyond his control: either the device or it's operating system.

Almost perfect

Zenicero on

Australia

The only negative thing I can say about this app is that it has too many features - which isn’t a real complaint I’ll admit. My issue is that it becomes inundating and unclear on how to access certain features when and where you need them. Everything makes sense but it isn’t intuitive, to me. All the settings menus look identical and come at you like a jumping spider while presented in plain text which doesn’t help my simple monkey brain to process what I think I’m doing. Maybe create profiles for basic vs advanced users and feature sets.

Been using this for years

Great functionality and customisations

Please refund my money as the app said this would be able to make me able to web browse on my Apple Watch?? And it doesn’t :/ please refund.

Upgrade removes critical proxy feature

forseta on

Australia

Upgrading removed the ability to control your proxy, the only reason I paid for this app. Couldn’t be less happy about this

The BEST browser

ArtNouveau on

Australia

Honestly, I’m a hardcore web navigator. I can not praise this tool or the developer enough. He’s very responsive! This would easily be in my top 5 must have apps! The flexibility is unparalleled. This browser does everything you could want plus the support is second to none! You won’t regret this purchase if you do purchase it!

iOS web browser that deserves a lot more attention than it gets, I have been using this for years and haven't found another browser that offers the amount of functionality and customizability that this one does. The only shortcomings I have are with the limitations of the WebKit browser engine itself, such as lack of flash and webm support. The download manager is extremely useful and the customizability of the UI is second to none.
