iCab Mobile is a web browser for the iOS. It provides many unique and useful features you won't find in other iPhone browsers.
APPLE WATCH:
The Watch App is a remote control for iCab Mobile, so you can navigate, zoom, scroll, open bookmarks, links, the homepage, switch tabs or sitch on/off the fullscreen mode. Since watchOS 6.2 you can also open web pages and browse the Web directly on the Apple Watch. But there are still limitations: there are no navigation buttons (back/forward) available.
FILE UPLOADS:
iCab Mobile can upload any files on web pages.
SEARCHING:
iCab Mobile comes with several default search engines you can choose from. You can easily add new search engines.
FILLING OUT FORMS:
iCab Mobile can save web forms and restore the form content later (manually or automatically). The saved forms data can be password protected. Supports many third-party Password Manager Apps as well.
FILTERS:
There’s a built-in fully customizable filter feature. It allows to block resources, ads, banners, user tracking scripts, cookies etc. Supports AdBlock Plus/EasyList filters as well.
TABS:
iCab Mobile supports Tabs, so you can open multiple web pages at the same time. Links can be opened in Tabs (in the foreground or background) manually or automatically.
BOOKMARKS:
Bookmarks can be organized in folders. You can import/export the bookmarks from/to your PC/Mac browser.
FULLSCREEN MODE:
iCab Mobile provides a fullscreen mode where the whole screen is used to display the web page. No screen space is wasted for toolbars.
DOWNLOADS:
iCab Mobile has a built-in Download Manager so you can download almost all files from the internet. The downloads can be easily transfered to a Mac/PC/Linux computer but also to other Apps on the device which can open these files
MULTIUSER SUPPORT

DROPBOX
iCab Mobile supports Dropbox. Export/Import bookmarks; transfer downloads, images, files, web pages to your Dropbox account.
TWIN BROWSER:
In this mode, you can have two browsers side by side on the iPad. This is especially useful on the large iPad Pro.

The App includes a store providing several InApp purchases. These are meant as a tip jar. The InApp purchases are available for different prices, so you can pick the amount for the tip yourself. Doing so will unlock a few cool features as a reward, these are always the same, regardless of the amount of the tip. Users who have purchased the App within the last 12 months do get all these features for free, no need to buy one of the InApp purchases. Though they can nevertheless give me a tip, if they want to... ;-)

Reviews
Best iPhone Browser ever
This is the best iPhone browser ever. Has useful features like: (a) Classic Tabs (b) QuickStart page (c) Full screen mode is optional. Very good to be able to opt out of full screen mode, and keep the tabs in view at all times. (d) Easy and wide variety of customizable options.
Default browser for years
I don’t understand the bad reviews. I have used this app for almost a decade and it has served me well. Highly customisable and powerful!
Lousy app
Lousy app don’t apply!!!
Custom user agent
For the Browser IDs, is it possible to set custom user agent strings?
Crappy
Downloads do not work
Crash when clicking on URL field...
Please fix. There is a crash bug when click on URL field, the whole app crashes.
Bad
Since last update cannot work at all.
One of the best (if not the best) iOS browsers
I have been using iCab since 2012, and it has never disappointed me. And it keeps improving!
Brings all the capabilities of the web to the iPad
One of the most complete browsers for iPad. Setting requires a bit a time as the browser has so many features, but it brings all the capabilities of a desktop browser to the iPad.
Unexpected quit on ipad min
I am using it on my ipad mini, it often crashes and I have no idea about the reason. Is it because mini has limited Ram or something like that? Hope you smart coder can fix it soon.
