Description

Browsecurely is an Action Extension that allows you to view a web page securely. With Browsecurely, you can:

• Prevent the application from tracking your browsing habits.
• Block content using any Safari Content Blockers you have enabled.
• Remove the need to log into a site if you’re already logged into it in Safari.

Version 1.0.5

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

• Support for iOS 10: unfortunately, adding support for iOS 10 requires Browsecurely to ask you to confirm that you want to open the page. This can be disabled in the app if a later update to iOS 10 addresses this issue.

Works great except in some apps

Now I'm not sure if this is a browsesecurely it's or an issue with iOS or other apps but, in some apps like Flioboard or News browsesecurely won't actually load anything. Instead it just says "website" in the address bar.

Love this app but want to report an issue

I use this app all the time from Newsify instead of builtin article reader. Unfortunately the integration with Newsify broke in the 1.0.5 version. You can read one article, then it starts rendering a black screen and throwing a dialogue indicating "Article name is not a valid URL.". Still seems to work fine from Safari. I tried other apps with Share sheet integration and the problem is not specific to Newsify.

Update: Works from Feedly. Fails from Engadget (grey screen and dialogue).
