Clear the Downloads list in one tap, or let it empty itself a day later. The files stay in the Files app. Plus some polish here and there, and a round of bug fixes.

A new icon: the globe in orbit, between day and night. Tickets, boarding passes and cards you download go straight to Wallet. Everything you download is also kept in the Files app, and a download that broke off can pick up where it stopped. Search Tabs, in the tabs button's menu, finds any open tab. The Start Page shows Frequently Visited and Recently Closed Tabs, and there are more search engines to choose from. New animations for your tabs: drag the address bar upward and the page glides in among your tabs; tap a tab and it zooms open, as in Safari. With Pro, Reader Options sets Reader's font and background, and where Apple Intelligence is on, Summarize sums up an article in a few points, on the device itself. If you bought this app before it became free, Pro is already yours. Plus some polish here and there, and a round of bug fixes.

Night Web Browser can now be your default browser app: links you tap in other apps open here, under your night filter. Choose it in the Settings app. Sign in with passkeys, and the password you saved for a site is suggested first, as in Safari.

Tabs close with a swipe: throw a tab's card upward in Cover Flow or the Tab Bar, or swipe it sideways in Tab Overview. Hold a card to move it. Drag the address bar upward to see your tabs side by side, and sideways to move between them. Let go on a tab to open it, or let go where you are to stay among your tabs. Closed a tab by mistake? For a few seconds a note offers to reopen it, on iPad also with ⌘⇧T. Small clicks you can feel: as tabs pass by, when a tab is thrown away, and when the night filter's sliders reach their ends, so the darkest setting can be found without looking at the screen. The Pro feature Keep Dimming Outside the App is now named Keep Brightness Low Outside the App, and its description says exactly what it does: the screen's brightness stays low when you leave the app; the night filter itself cannot follow into other apps, because iOS lets no app dim another.

Pages are translated into your iPhone's language in more cases: Traditional Chinese in Taiwan and Hong Kong, Portuguese for Portugal, and languages the app itself does not come in. In Video, a sign-in that opens its own window now works on sites you have added, and share buttons and other pop-up windows open in a new tab instead of covering the video. When the Sleep Focus has turned the night filter on, it now stays on when you open the browser. The order of your bookmarks now syncs properly between devices with iCloud. Plus: a link straight to an audio or video file plays, a tab you close goes quiet, and a round of smaller fixes throughout the app.

Video: your video sites beside Tabs and Private, each in its own tab that stays on its site and keeps its own sign-in. Any other site can be added to Video too. Hold a service in Video and choose Add to Home Screen to give it its own icon there. Sleep can switch the night filter too: in the Settings app, add Night Web Browser under Focus Filters for Sleep. The filter comes on when Sleep begins and goes off when it ends. Plus a round of smaller improvements and fixes throughout the app.

Now in Vietnamese, Turkish and Ukrainian. Listen to Page has a sleep timer. Choose 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes, and the reading stops by itself at the end of a sentence — paused, so it picks up from there the next time you press play. The sleep timer is part of Pro. If you bought the app before it became free, you already have it. Hold Back or Forward to see the tab’s history, the way Safari does. On iOS 27, every site you visit is asked not to sell or share your personal data. You can switch it off under Privacy in Settings. On iOS 27, choosing Listen to Page no longer closes the app. Turning the phone while a video plays no longer leaves the app stuck. Swiping back and forward no longer flashes a white page when pages are dark. Plus a round of smaller improvements and fixes throughout the app.

Listen to Page — the article read aloud, and it keeps going with the screen switched off. Open an article, choose Listen to Page, and it is read to you in the voice of its own language, a paragraph at a time, with the paragraph being read marked in Reader. Lock the phone and it carries on, with play, pause and skip on the lock screen. It is the darkest way to read. Reader can now open by itself on the sites you choose. Pick “Use Reader Automatically Here” in the page menu once, and every article on that site arrives as just the article. A small A on the Reader button shows that it is on for that site, and the same menu turns it off. Both are part of Pro. If you bought the app before it became free, you already have it. The cross that closes a tab is easier to hit — the same size on screen, a bigger target under your thumb. And a video that is playing fills the screen when you turn the phone sideways, the way it does in Safari. And Dark Mode for Web Pages can now follow the night filter’s schedule, so the pages go dark when the evening does. Plus a round of smaller improvements and fixes throughout the app.

Downloads — the files stay in the browser you were already in. Tap a link to a file and it is kept inside Night Web Browser: watch it arrive, open it when it is done, and pass it on. Nothing hands you over to another app, and nothing lights up on the way. And you now choose how your tabs look: Cover Flow, Tab Overview — a grid like Safari’s, so a lot of tabs stay manageable — or the Tab Bar. The choice is offered when the app first opens and is always in Settings. In the overview and the bar, a tab can be dragged into a new place. Settings is one screen now. Every part of the app is a row that opens its own page, so what the browser can do is visible at a glance rather than somewhere down a long scroll. Plus a round of smaller improvements and fixes throughout the app.

Private page translation, right on your iPhone. Translate Page now runs on the device — nothing about the page is sent away, the site keeps its own look and address, and it works with no connection at all, where a web-based translator can't. One tap keeps translating as you follow links, and it can turn on by itself into a language you choose. Translation and iCloud Sync — your bookmarks and Reading List, the same on your iPhone and iPad and kept in your own iCloud, safe even if you delete the app — are part of Pro — one purchase, once, not a subscription. Pro also keeps the brightness down after you leave the browser, until you change it in Control Center. Free for everyone: save the whole app to a backup file and restore it later, export your bookmarks for any browser to open, and put the address bar within thumb's reach — Top or Bottom, your choice. Also in this version: - iPad asks for the desktop site by default - The toolbars tuck away while you type in a field on a page

Night Web Browser is free now. If you already have the app, nothing changes. Everything you paid for is still yours — Pro included — and you will never be asked to pay again. The new Reading List — it downloads whole articles to read offline — is part of your Pro. New here? The night filter, the schedule, tabs, bookmarks, history and private tabs are free. One purchase, once, adds a Reading List that downloads whole articles to read offline, plus Reader (just the article), Dark Mode for Web Pages, Translate Page, ad and cookie-notice blocking, hiding distracting items, and the lock for private tabs. Also in this version: - A link that used to reopen the page in another browser now stays here, dimmed, instead of jumping out at full brightness - Turning on dark mode for a site that already has a dark theme of its own no longer lit the page up

The night filter can follow the sun now — on at sunset where you are, off at sunrise. - Sunset to Sunrise: the schedule can follow the sun where you are. It is worked out on your iPhone and never sent anywhere - Dark mode for web pages can be turned on or off for one site at a time, from the share menu - In the morning the filter lets go slowly, over half a minute, instead of daylight arriving all at once - Hold the app to open the browser already dimmed - A tab you come back to opens at the paragraph you left it on Fixed in dark mode for web pages: some images and backgrounds came out as colour negatives, a panel could stay light in the middle of a dark page, and fixed headers could come loose.

Reader, ad blocking, page translation and bookmark folders — 9.1 fills in the browser around the night filter. - Reader for articles, with the clutter removed - Block ads and trackers, and keep cookie notices off the screen — without ever answering them for you - Translate a page into your own language - Bookmarks in folders, and import them from Safari, Chrome, Firefox or Edge — on the iPhone itself - Cover Flow is back: flip through your open tabs, or drag them into the order you want - Hide anything on a page you would rather not see; it stays hidden on that site - Page zoom, and a switch that stops history being saved - The night filter fades in and out now instead of snapping, and can be set from Shortcuts and Siri - The page fills the screen when the toolbars slide away Fixed: pages that set no background of their own could be drawn black, and dark mode could frame a short page in near-white.

Version 9.0 is a rebuild from the ground up. - Web pages can now be given a genuinely dark background, not just a dimmed layer on top - The night filter can switch itself on and off between times you choose - The keyboard turns dark instead of white, so nothing flashes when you start typing - Private tabs, which can be kept behind Face ID or a four-digit code - Find on page, request the desktop site, and clear cookies and cache - Searchable history, and favourites on the start page - Korean, Traditional Chinese and Italian added - Your bookmarks from the old version come with you
