Quiche: Internet Web Browser

I have tried many browsers, but this is the one on my dock now. While not exactly feature rich yet, it has most things a browser needs; when a feature is present, it is done very well. I am also able to customize the UI to my liking, which is now a lot more minimal than that of safari with each button earning its spot. Love the updates from the dev, bright future ahead!

I approached Quiche upon seeing it recommended by the MacStories, having tried a range of other browsers. The iPad version of Quiche is in open beta with multi-window support and more to come, and I’ve made the switch. The design of this app is top-notch, rare for a browser this customisable! It sports true fullscreen browsing on scroll, and the navigation bar can colour-match the webpage. Quiche has built-in tracking protections and nuisance blocking, and feels like a really solid and native iOS app. It fits right into my typical usage if that’s what I want it to be, yet lets me get creative and experiment with different kinds of approaches to browsing the web! Even besides customisation of the browser toolbar, the ‘menu’ is a great feature which allows for a surprising level of design flexibility in its layout. I can achieve a minimalist design for the toolbar, while the menu carries most of the browser functionality without feeling cluttered at all. Quiche has enough going for it, that I’ve made the switch from Safari even despite a few small compromises. Having shared my setup and any hard edges I encountered with the author, I can say the future directions for the browser exceed my expectations too! Well worth the optional 99p per month to support Greg in this fantastic indie project!

This app is the best browser I have ever used on iOS, insane customisation.

Would love to see an iPad mini version of the App.

What a great App! So easy to customise your browser to how you want to work. Totally recommended! The developer is super responsive and helpful too.

Although not yet my default browser (that is Orion), I use it quite a bit. In particular, the option of a button for toggling Javascript is incredibly useful for stopping pop-up videos, which to me are the bane of the internet. The built-in ad blocking is good; it even blocked Twitter ads until just recently (now I only use Twitter on the desktop since none of the mobile blockers I've tried stop the truly intolerable ads.). Closing tabs is also quite easy from the toolbar, though I would prefer if the last closed tab would revert to the favorites page as that would save me a step in having to open it rather than just looking at a blank page. A wishlist would include an option to block all video/images with a toolbar toggle and gestures as in Orion allowing closing a page with a swipe up and some more options. Keep up the good work!

What a great browser! So many options to customize it to your personal preferences. Already on my Home Screen.

I got the menu tweaked exactly the way I want it and it’s awesome. Just shy of a year to the day of my initial review, it's become my default browser. So much love and care from the dev.

I can’t put my finger on why I like this browser so much, but it is the first time I’ve installed a third party browser on iOS and kept using it for over a week. I think it gets the balance between minimalism and customizability just right.

Found it while looking for a browser with more gestures and instantly liked it for how customizable and simple it was. I use an iPhone XR and in heavy browsers had lag or heat problems with many tabs open but it wasn’t the case with this one since it feels considerably faster when moving around. It lacks some features but talked with the developer by email and the app has a bright future for sure. Looking forward to it!
