Your privacy should be the default, not a feature. Aloha Browser gives you everything you need to browse privately, block ads and trackers, and download files — in one app, with nothing extra to install.
Hundreds of millions of users trust Aloha because it does what other browsers won't: it puts your privacy first by default, not as an afterthought.
BLOCK ADS AUTOMATICALLY
Ads slow you down and track you across the web. Aloha removes them before they load — every page is faster, cleaner, and distraction-free with no ads. No setup required.
BROWSE WITH A BUILT-IN FREE VPN
Protect your connection on any network with Aloha's integrated VPN. Choose from 80+ server locations worldwide, secured with 256-bit AES encryption and DNS leak protection. VPN traffic is compressed and encrypted to reduce bandwidth usage. One tap to activate — no separate app, no data caps for everyday use.
DOWNLOAD VIDEOS AND FILES
Save videos, music, and documents directly from any web page. Aloha's built-in downloader handles the formats other browsers can't. Play media in the background, manage files with ease, and lock sensitive downloads with biometric protection.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Aloha doesn't log your activity — ever. There's nothing to share because there's nothing stored. Combined with the VPN, automatic ad blocking, and TrafficMask, you get full-stack privacy that goes far beyond what incognito mode offers.
PRIVATE AI — NO SURVEILLANCE
Use AI to summarize, translate, and answer questions without your prompts being logged, profiled, or used to train models. Private by default.
BUILT FOR YOUR DAILY WEB
Tabbed browsing with a clean, fast interface. Sync bookmarks and tabs across iOS, Android, and Desktop. Scan QR codes instantly. Explore Web3 domains and dApps with full native support. Everything works together, beautifully.
ALOHA PREMIUM
Upgrade for enhanced VPN country selection, device-wide VPN protection, VPN auto-start, Wi-Fi file sharing, ZIP compression support, and premium themes.
Aloha Premium is available at $7.99/month or $69.99/year (USD). Prices may vary by region. Subscriptions renew automatically unless turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage subscriptions in your Apple Account settings. Any unused free trial portion is forfeited upon purchase.

Sadly, I am writing this review because I am no longer going to maintain Aloha as my default browser. I have, for better or (sometimes much) worse, fully immersed myself in Apples playground. My day-to-day has just become harder to manage by not using Safari. Apple is a wildly aggressive company. They hobble any app that could possibly chip away at their mountain of dominance. And sadly Aloha has become, rather, HAS BEEN a target of this aggression. That being said, USE THIS BROWSER! Aloha is worth absolutely every cent of the ten or eleven bucks they charge PER YEAR. It has excellent security features I’ve never seen on other browsers. It has a Crypto wallet. It has a robust VPN, free of charge, that can cover ALL of your devices. Alohas UI (user interface) is clean and efficient; it’s always easy to navigate the app and find what it is you’re looking for, be-it surface level settings or more advanced settings/options. I have Aloha automatically turn on the VPN when I open the app. It’s nice to know you’re safe with an app. That doesn’t happen often anymore. There’s a lot that makes Aloha special and worth giving a try. No, I am not a fake reviewer or something. Just some 33 year old dude lost in Ohio. I just realized it was kinda a big change for me switching browsers because I had been using Aloha for so long. I really felt like this app deserved a nod and some recognition. Give it a try. I doubt you’ll regret it.
2 stars for version 3.3.0
Ankh99
If I could rate the app overall and the current update, the first would be a 4/5 stars and the current update (3.3.0) would be 2/5 stars. So I’ve averaged at 3. I love so many things about this app, from the password protect feature to the built-in VPN and ad block if you need them, but the media play features, download capabilities, and then the playback features is the main reason I use this app! One of my favorite features is while watching a video fullscreen, you can scrub (fast forward or rewind) by sliding your finger along the bottom of the screen. In prior versions, you could also tap and slide on a specific area of the screen to increase your screen’s brightness or the device volume. But in 3.3.0, they also increased the area where this happens… so you inadvertently increase or decrease your screen brightness while trying to fast forward or rewind. But you also used to be able to swipe down on the video to exit fullscreen mode. Now, that just causes the screen to go black from the brightness slide getting activated. This update alone has me not wanting to use the app at all anymore. Developer, PLEASE revert these features back. Please! Or give us the opportunity to turn the brightness/volume sliders off. Also in 3.3.0, they’ve changed the way you save files into folders. In general, I like the new way as it shows all the folders similar to how they’re shown on a Mac… but it is very glitchy and is super easy to save to the wrong folder or not be able to save at all (because the “download to” button isn’t visible). Don’t get me wrong… this really is a great app overall…. But I wish I could revert to the version prior to this last update. It was a 4/5!

Hey, Thanks for such a detailed review, we appreciate it. Do not worry! We already improved a few things and it will be available in the next release: swipe down to close will be returned, we have minimised the area with brightness and volume controls - so it should be much more user friendly, also other fixes and improvements 🙂
My favorite app for web browsing securely

I like this app a lot. I eventually set it as my default browser. Has great security features and the video player is my favorite of any other app. Safari has now incorporated some of the features like swiping anywhere on screen to scroll through a video but this app has more intuitive controls like swiping up and down on the screen to the left; for controlling brightness, or on the right side of the screen for volume. Absolutely brilliant, now I don’t have to flip my phone upright, swipe down from the top right corner to bring out the control center to adjust either of those. It also makes downloading media from just about anywhere on the web a breeze. Try it yourself, the average user has more than enough features at their disposal without having to get a subscription, however anyone who’s serious about their online privacy knows you will have to shell out some dollars for any kind of respectable defense online. Their subscription is inexpensive and offers mostly convenience options to add to what is already available for free. I recommend it for everyone. Decide for yourself though whether their subscription is right for your needs.
Pretty Good. (Cost for Premium is Only a few Dollars)

I’ve used this Browser On/Off on my iPad Air for about 1yr.. I don’t have anything Negative to say about it.. It offers almost everything the Most Popular Browsers offer. It doesn’t offer as much Customization as the Big 3 Browsers.. However It offers enough Customization to satisfy most people. It’s MUCH Easier to download Web Pages and Videos using this compared the most popular browsers.. At least if your using an iPad. Often I hit the Download Button on a Video in Edge, Chrome, Safari or FireFox, 70% of the time I get “Downloads Not Available on this site on this Browser”.. That doesn’t happen with this Bowser.. The Browser offers a Free VPN and although that is Good, I prefer to use a VPN Bought from a company that makes it’s money from VPN/Security services. I recommend IPvanish, I’ve been using that on All my computing Devices (Over 8), for the past 6+ years, never had any problems with it.. Norton Security Deluxe also is Very Good. Don’t get me wrong you can use the built in VPN in Aloha Browser, I can’t really say anything against it.. It even offers a “Always On” Option letting you use the VPN, on your iPad even when you aren’t using the Browser... The Speed of this Browser seems as fast as any of them...
