About Browsy - The Smart Fullscreen Web Browser and Website Markdownifier
View and share the web without distractions.
Browsy is a smart fullscreen web browser that allows you to browse the web without anything getting in your way.
Browsy has a little something for everyone:
- View websites in fullscreen.
- Navigate the web with gestures. Disable any of the gestures if they get in your way.
- Find what you are looking for with DuckDuckGo in the Omnibar.
- Share web content with ease.
- The Bookmarks view makes viewing all of your Pinboard bookmarks a breeze.
- Read all of your favorite websites in a clean and customizable layout with the Reading View.
- Take Notes while browsing using the Notes View.
- Securely use all of your passwords and credit cards throughout the web with the 1Password extension. It's available on the Share button if you have 1Password installed.
- Be productive while browsing with support for Handoff, 3D Touch, Spotlight Search, Keyboard Shortcuts, iPad Multitasking (Split View, Slide Over and Picture in Picture) and a powerful URL Scheme.
- Background audio support allows audio you stream to keep playing while using other apps or while the screen is locked.
- Developer or Designer? Preview and interact with HTML prototypes easily on your device. If Framer Studio is running on your Mac, Browsy can automatically connect to it and display your prototypes on the device.
- Markdown User? Browsy includes the Markdownify Action Extension that can turn *any website into Markdown. You can also use Markdownify from any other app that supports Action Extensions (first introduced in iOS 8)!
- Parent? With Browsy, there is nothing your child can accidentally touch and ruin his/her experience. Works best with **Guided Access.
- Browsy also includes full support for **VoiceOver.
Own an Apple Watch?
Use the Watch app to remote control the iPhone app from your Watch, view your Bookmarks, or do a quick search online. You can also have the Watch speak your search results to you through your iPhone and use Handoff and the Force Touch menu to move between the Watch and your iPhone (Handoff also works with your iPad or Mac).
Browsy is brought to you by Sl's Repository Ltd, a small company dedicated to making your life better.
If you require assistance, have feedback, suggestions or anything else to say, you can get in touch via Twitter (@slsrepo) or the website (https://slsrepo.com).
*The output of the Markdownify extension depends, among other things, on the HTML markup of the page you send. Check slsrepo.com/marky for more details about it, although most websites should work.
**Guided Access and VoiceOver are accessibility settings available on the Settings app.

1.1
Jun 28, 2015
Browsy 1.1 - Your browsing just got an upgrade.
Months in the making, Browsy 1.1 makes the browser you love so much better with a lot of new features, bug fixes and performance improvements.
##New Features:
- The app's address bar has been bitten by a radioactive duck and is now known as Omnibar, savior of the web! With supersenses that allow it to search the web for search terms (with DuckDuckGo) and mind control to allow him to search inside other websites without going to those websites first (with DuckDuckGo !bangs)!
- Supercharge your browsing - Use the awesome new powers of the omnibar for both your web searches and URLs.
- Markdownify now uses the new in-house Marky API to markdownify your websites; powered by Kryptonite.
- New Pinboard Bookmarks view with 100% more Corkboard and sticky notes than your average bookmarks view.
- Security Owl is here with his new 1Password extension that allows you to securely fill in your login credentials while browsing the web. It's available on the Share button if you have 1Password installed. Security Owl says he flies nowhere without it!
- New In-App Purchases that allows users that love the app to send a tip; Warning: Browsy is immensely lovable!
- New "More" button that controls the appearance of all the other buttons (currently the Share button, Bookmarks button). You can hide the "More" button and control it's state on launch on the Settings view. Pro Tip: Hide the buttons and browse the web in the most minimal zen like way ever!
- New "Keep Screen Awake" setting that prevents the screen from closing while using the app. Did you know that most Owls are nocturnal except the the short-eared owl who loves the daylight as much as you or me?
##Bugs and Other Issues Fixed:
- Fixed a bug causing the button to close the settings view on the iPad to appear as blue instead of white.
- Fixed a bug that allowed users to turn off all of the "Show and Hide Controls" Switches.
- Fixed a bug that caused the Share view to show up empty sometimes while there is a URL loaded.
- Fixed a bug causing the web view to be pushed back behind a white transparent background.
- Fixed a bug allowing the web view to be scrollable without a URL loaded.
- Fixed an issue that might prevent VoiceOver labels from playing.
- Fixed an issue that prevented opening the About Browsy view.
- Fixed an issue that prevented the browsy:// URL Scheme from opening URLs that come after the ://. Now Browsy will accept any URL or a Search Term you use with this URL Scheme: browsy://?q=Your URL or Search Term.
- Fixed an issue that prevented Location Services from working on websites that require them (for example, Google Maps).
If you require support, have any ideas, feedback or anything else you would like to say, Get in touch via Twitter (@SlsRepo) or the website (http://slsrepo.com)! Also, if you love the app, please kindly consider leaving a review. It's a great and effective way to support the app.
