Description

Sidefari is a simple web browser that is designed to act as a companion to Safari. Sidefari uses a feature built into iOS called the Safari View Controller to display a "mini" version of Safari that shares many features of the full Safari app, like content blockers. How can this help you? In iOS 10.2 and newer: Sidefari features an extension called "Open Modally in Safari" that will enable you to bring a Safari-based window inside of other apps that enable ways to share website URLs. Why would you want to do this? Perhaps you prefer the convenience of having some Safari features inside the same app, or if youre conscious about your privacy perhaps you dont want to use the custom web browser many apps have. In iOS 9: When on an iPad, besides the "Open Modally in Safari" extension mentioned above, Sidefari shows as an extra Safari-based browser on the side of your screen when summoned to the side thanks to multi-tasking. Now youll be able to have two websites simultaneously on the same screen. ** Please note that compatible iPads include the iPad Air 2, iPad mini 4, and iPad Pro, or greater. Please refer to the "How to set up the extension" inside the app to learn more about how to enable Sidefari.

Clever App

Tottenj · 10 years ago

Split view just got a lot more useful. I love that I can open in Sidefari from Safari. Great job on this well thought out app.

The Best Complement to Safari in Split View mode.

Jonathan Bloom · 10 years ago

Sidefari allows you to have two Safari windows side-by-side in SplitView with the same cookies, etc. You can easily send between both apps using a Safari button in Sidefari and a Send to Sidefari button in Safari.

I would have paid $9.99

iosfangirl · 10 years ago

Thanks for this app its exactly what split view / slide over needed. Safari is the only browser I use. So before your app 2 Safari browsers open at the same time was not possible. Also thanx to MacStories for the article highlighting the app!

99¢

Waste of money. Deleted it after attempted use.

Awesome!

Love it!

Way Better than Splitting Safari and Chrome

SolarTrans · 10 years ago

Content blockers appear to be working, however it still doesnt support tabs. Overall a great app though, "send to sidefari" function in the share menu is great!

Dont waste your money

This is not a browser, it is a viewer and you basically cut and paste from safari. Save your money and run safari side by side with chrome, Firefox, or the other free browsers.
