Onion Browser for iOS Lets You Access the Internet Anonymously via Tor

Onion Browser is a Tor-capable web browser for iOS that lets you access the internet privately and anonymously.

Features/Benefits:
• Internet access tunneled over the Tor onion router network:
- Websites do not see your real IP address.
- Your connection is encrypted before it leaves your device, providing protection against snooping by ISPs or people who share a WiFi connection with you.
- Tunnel bypasses restrictive firewalls: you can access the entire Internet from behind ISPs or corporate connections, or when inside countries that practice online censorship.
- Access websites on the "dark net" of anonymous .onion web sites, only accessible in the Tor network.

• User-Agent spoofing: hides the fact that you are using an iPhone/iPad from websites you visit.

• Ability to block third party cookies or all cookies.

• Can change IP address and clear cookies/history/cache in one button.

NOTE: Web browsing through the anonymization network will be significantly slower than through a non-tunneled browser.


You can purchase Onion Browser from the App Store for $0.99.
