I see this becoming pretty big one day. But it’s too early still. Pages load slowly compared to other browsers.Also the first time I opened the app the page wouldn’t load at all. After a restart it began to work.Other than that I have no issues. It’ll get there soon, don’t give up!

Needs optimization & way to clear cache

DUDE what about my PRIVACY
Thank you for the detailed explanation Installed open visited a few pages (7) exited app but saved 3 of the pages as bookmarks in my iPhone storage I now saw this app taking up 452mb of storage which seems insane only using it once for 10 minutes but even more problematic was after offloading the app it still took up 308mb of space? Why so huge and why not a way to clear the cache? Maybe there is but I couldn’t find. Sadly also very overpriced just for a script browser. Many browsers do what this browser charges a monthly fee for which again is just out and out pure greed 🙈🥲👎

Developer Response
Hello, thank you for your feedback. You can clear up the cache just from the Settings.We have over 250,000 built-in content rules for ad and tracking protection, which may take up around 200 MB of space for the best filtering effect. App data and system cache typically require about 50 - 100 MB, which is common for most browser apps.Gear Pro offers not only Userscript Add-ons but also advanced professional tools and features. We will continuously update our product more frequently than others.If you have any questions, please contact us via contact@gear4.app. We are looking forward to assisting.

Subscription required for only unique feature

This browser is absolutely not unique in any way. Everything it can do, safari can do either baked in or with extensions. The only thing that makes this browser truly unique is with web dev tools baked in - no desktop required. The kicker is the paywall is a SUBSCRIPTION. I would pay for a one time fee, but if I would have had access to my laptop instead of my iPad, I would have NEVER subscribed to a *web browser*. This is not AOL/Netscape days, there’s hundreds of free and open source browser options. I cannot recommend this browser unless you absolutely must debug your website on iPad/iPhone. Even then, it’s best to wait. Try Inspect Browser, one time fee and has all the features you need for development.

Most of the core features are available to all users, and updates and new features are continuously provided weekly with no payment required.The advanced web development tools are part of Gear Pro, which helps support ongoing development and weekly updates. Creating and maintaining a full-featured browser, especially one with built-in developer tools on iOS, requires significant effort. A subscription model allows us to keep improving and expanding these features while ensuring long-term sustainability.We hope you’ll reconsider and give Gear another chance. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts!
