The best browser since a long time, and for sure the best one for a long time !

Not ios 7 compatible

Crash at startup since the ios 7 update.

Attention

Attention avec ios 8 plein de bug.

Sync with chrome

Though browser itself is good, it lacks one serious functionality of syncing with chrome. Please add this.

Excellent app

Everything you have in your Desktop browser (ad blocker, uploading feature etc...) on your iOS device. It also boosts your web experience on older iPads !! 5 stars, thanks a lot !!

Absolutely awesome !

Not only iCab mobile is the best browser on iPhone compared with Safari, Chrome, Opera or Firefox but it is also very privacy conscious and user friendly. You are in control. The German author behind this app very clearly respect his users. The MacOSX version on the desktop is also excellent.

Best browser

The only really useful browser.

Awesome

Keep up. I hope bugs that crash the app have the biggest priority

Really smooth interface

Amazing app all you need in a beautiful interface and browser..

Just ok

Great features , great options !! But.... Much Much slower than atomic browser. Speed it up and get a perfect 5 from me otherwise it is pretty useless.

Great Browser!

Excellent browser; love all the add-ons, and you can configure the toolbars exactly how you like. The only thing I dont like is the search feature. I dont get why they combined web and in-line Search in the same window. You can search in the address bar apparently, but typing "?" in the address bar seems superfluous - why not just double as a search field, a la Chrome?

Still not fiiiiiiixed

Im sorry, but this thing still isnt allowing me to download. :/ You just did an update to "Fix" it for a bug. The bug is that you cannot download. This was fine before the last download now it doesnt do anything when I touch the screen of the item I wish to download. You still have more to fix, iCab people. Please

Cannot download file!!!

I just updated a new version and now I am no longer able to download video files. Its been a week now. Please fix this soon iCab team!!!

Cant download video anymore

Like other reviews you can no longer download and save videos. Therefore app is now useless.

Mixed bag from a privacy point of view

Support for do-not-track (same as Safari) Support for third-party cookie blocking (same as Safari) Support for ad blocking (unlike Safari) Support for referer blocking (unlike Safari) Unfortunately the various privacy settings cannot easily be changed at a single place. The settings are spread across the in-app settings manager, which actually has a privacy sub area, and the global settings manager. (The reason for having two different settings managers is a mystery to me. It took me a long time to become aware of the global one.) Therefore, it is unlikely that non-expert users will become aware and be able to fully exploit the admittedly powerful privacy features of iCab. A redesign of the configuration options in general would be highly appreciated. At this time iCab seems to be mainly targeted at expert users.

Easily the Best iPad Browser

I love this app. It is easily the most sophisticated browser app out there. The developer is constantly refining it and adding new features. It blows Safari out of the water. Highly, highly recommended!

What a browser should be

I browse the net with icab, download files and videos, send to other apps, create PDF out of page, and on and on. What safari supposed to be. Totally happy with it and highly recommended.

LJT

Great concept but fails to deliver. Very limited touch capabilities for what would be mouse clicks.

Like the app, but bug in latest version

The latest version seems to have a bug that makes page loading deterministically fail until the app is killed and restarted. Its still unclear to me how to trigger the app to enter such bad state. It usually happens within 10 minutes of browsing, and may have to do with navigating away a page before it is fully loaded. Ive been using this app for a few years and I like the apps integration with other services such as dropbox and firefox sync. It usually is very stable. Hopefully the bug is addressed soon!

iOS7 problem

I love this app and have come to rely on it, but now it wont open at all in iOS 7. I have password protected browsing implemented, this is the reason I bought the app. As of now, I cant get in at all. Is there a timeline for a fix for this?
