New update is a bummer

lgdoo

I hate the dark background. Is there a way to change it back to light? Also now when I’m searching images I can’t swipe to view the next one. I have to click the X, but when viewing them collectively the images are very grainy. It’s terrible and super inefficient for viewers. I love this app/browser and have been using for years but I have to say I’m not happy with the latest changes.


Not so private

Maryxm

This browser is supposed to be private, but even in the private/incognito mode, it stores tons of tracking cookies. I have to clear the data every day. Also, I would give it zero stars if I could, because if you try to browse a website and have the app on your device, it automatically sends you to the app. It is so frustrating. I know I have the app Ghostery, I am not senile. I may have a reason to use a browser. Safari gives you the option whether you want to do to the app or stay in the browser, which is very helpful. Zero stars for Ghostery.


It’s good but can’t full screen on yt

gbflyer

I really like this app! But one problem… I can’t full screen which at first sounds like a dumb thing to say, like “Yea ok? Just make the screen bigger?” But since I can’t go full screen I can’t listen to my music while drawing.


Crashes

Dr. AGC

This app crashes after a few minutes and will not search from the address bar. Update is total junk.


removed features :/ :\

Vvvisssaa

i really appreciated being able to include a !ty or !gi to search in youtube/google imagies etc… it seems this feature was removed :c … now this browser is just as normal and middling as any of the others

Just tried to use iPhone 6s safari ios 15 Instead of Ghostery, big mistake. Safari is like no comparison to the Ghostery app. I keep looking for a misdeed in the Ghostery app, but can’t find anything at all. Returning to Ghostery for sure…. Just tried using safari again on iPhone 6s, didn’t go so well… I was bombarded with advertising like they wanted revenge for me using the Ghostery app. Nov/14/2021


Can’t export bookmarks

Dr. Whosewhatsits

It’s nearly 2022. Why can’t we export our bookmarks?!?


Great App Not giving Up On It Yet

Ceilyandres

Been using this for quite some time and love it. Been waiting though for an update to address the serious cut and paste issues on my iPad and iPhone that started with iOS 13. Have to use Safari for any cut and paste or picture saving


Not really private; data hog

LiddleKiddle

There are some features of this that I really like. But even w cookies and trackers turned off in iOS, this app manages to snarf your info. And, no new update in a year? Buh buh.


Crashes often leaves lots of data behind

BestAppsUser

Noticed crashes, ignored after restarting works. But noticed data/docs had grown to over 2Gig. Deleted App and reinstalled. Crashes once in a while. Seems a snapshot of the app size(+-) in its data space each time of a crash. Deleted the app entirely and will go back as soon as it’s fixed. Leave no droppings please.
