“The best Tor-related offering on iOS right now is Onion Browser” - The Daily Dot, October 14, 2015.

Featured in: The New York Times, The Guardian, Salon, TechCrunch, Gizmodo, Boing Boing, Lifehacker, Macworld, The Daily Dot, & others.

FEATURES:
• Browse the internet over Tor:
- Websites do not see your real IP address.
- ISPs and insecure wireless networks cannot track your browsing.
- Access .onion sites that are only accessible over Tor.

• Defeat internet filters and censors with "obfs4" & "meek" traffic masking.

• Fight online tracking: use a new IP address and clear your cookies/history/cache in one button.

• And more privacy-enhancing features!

DISCLAIMERS:
Web browsing is much slower than through a normal web browser or a VPN because your traffic is encrypted and relayed through the Tor network.

Multimedia often bypass Tor and compromise your privacy; video files and video streams are blocked by default and are not supported by Onion Browser.

Onion Browser might not work when inside countries or using ISPs that actively block Tor. If the app does not connect, try using bridges or visit the Help/Support page to see what you can do. Onion Browser does not carry any guarantee of successful use.

Use of Onion Browser is at your own risk; remember that sensitive data does not always belong on a mobile device.

Onion Browser is free and open-source software. You can read more about Onion Browser and how to support development of Tor on iOS by visiting onionbrowser.com

Can’t start since install
FarhadJoey

It continuously says can’t connect (we’re having trouble) since the installation. I thought maybe coz of settings so I turn off my phone and on again. Still no better. I uninstall it and reinstall it again. Still no difference. Maybe your browser doesn’t suit iOS.


Almost great!

It would be great but I can’t find a way to disable JavaScript.


Good but it can’t run google
Lefamily

This is very good but when you try to run google it will think you’re a robot. But it does hide your IP so overall it’s a pretty good app.


Thank You

Finally a browser that works.


Video play

Whenever I try to play a video the play button has a slash through it


3rd party keyboard
staveone

i downloaded this ap and while in settings the 'allow 3rd part keyboard' switch opened. the phone did not restart, which supposedly it must do if this switch opens. this is not instilling confidence in this user, for sure.


This app is not working on my phone
S.chris7421

Everytime I try to open the onion browser my screen goes blank for a minute and then the app immediately closes and returns me to my homescreen. The app doesn’t run, ive even tried deleting and reinstalling and just keeps closing as soon as i open it


Works great

A small widget would be a nice enhancement to the app.


Moves slower than molasses dripping.

Onion Browser has an amazing concept however when trying to open any website, including the onion site for NYT the page loads so slow, to the point where 5 minutes later, it isn’t even fully loaded. Impossible to use. But the idea is fantastic.


Go Back
stillzaddy

The most recent update is horrible. I don’t know was done but in do it. The app constantly crashes, doesn’t load, and forgets my tabs even when the remember tabs feature is enabled as restarts as if I shut down the app.
