Grazing: an advanced web browser for iOS.
Grazing is a web browser written in the early days of iOS development to explore mobile browsing ideas and provide missing functionality that wasn't available in the mainstream browsers of the time.
It is no longer under active development, but the app should keep working for the foreseeable future and I try to provide maintenance releases when possible. Eventually, an iOS update will probably do something that will break it, but hopefully it will keep working for at least a few more years.
Thanks for your support over the years! It means a lot to me that people have kept using it for so long.
Important Note:*
- The Grazing Cloud servers have been shut down, so syncing functionality is no longer available.
- Additionally, many 3rd party services have discontinued their APIs, so not all listed 3rd-party features are still available. Most discontinued services can still be accessed using standard iOS sharing functionality.
