“This is a better browser experience than most built by entire teams/companies!”
tacogy3, App Store US
“I cannot recommend this browser enough, it’s fantastic. I love the customization, speed, the constant updates, and the developer listens to feedback.”
The L$T, App Store US
“Shocking one person can make a browser this nice when major companies are stuck and not innovative anymore.”
aleconline, App Store US
“This has been the first browser ever to make me actually switch my default browser on my phone. It’s already a well polished product, and the customization makes me really feel like it values me using it how I want to. The developer is very open and I appreciate his stance on [not using] telemetry data.”
turbotadventure, App Store US
“Quiche is delicious in real life and the features of this browser are also the utmost decadent. I believe a solo developer made it, and they are the embodiment of a thousand loving grandmother energy.”

Ratings and Reviews
A minimalists dream
tl;dr An incredibly creative and well crafted browser with tons of potential from a developer who cares
I want to start by saying, I can’t believe this app doesn’t have more attention. I was reading an article that popped up talking about this app. It sounded unique and immediately piqued my interest when it mentioned “customizable browser”. I honestly have been looking for something like this for years and I’ve tried everything but nothing could convince me to stay. I ended up sticking with Safari purely because of continuity, a slightly feeling of minimalism, and functionality. However, Quiche is truly unique with its simplicity. Just the mere fact that you could move the back button to the other side of the address bar sold me. Along with that, there’s tons of other options and ways to make it your own.
The cherry on top for me was the care from the developer. I had a couple questions regarding some functionality in the app and was able to contact him directly through his instagram. He took the time to answer my questions along with taking any feedback and requests. Sure, the browser is missing some things but I’m not worried in the slightest that it will stay that way. Keep up the good work
Developer Response ,
It was very nice chatting on Instagram the other day 😊
Thank you so much for taking the time to write that incredibly kind review, and your great support!
Tasty Pie
Really loving Quiche on iOS. First there’s the obvious - customization. It’s super fast and does feel lightweight. I love that links that are the same are grouped together - and I’m a big fan of easily snapping back to the homepage for favorites. There are some great sites already programmed in. I’ve also been using through Test Flight on my iPad and Greg (developer) has really done a great job on both platforms. Have not been experiencing crashes or issues at all. I have traditionally been a power browser user and try them all. I’m excited to see Quiche grow and would love to see some features like native highlights and annotations to integrate with other Read it Later apps. Not a huge deal though. I don’t find myself using a “Spaces” feature on mobile as much, so again, I like that like-links are already auto-grouped and not jumbled all over a bunch of open tabs. You can change that view too if you wish. I could keep going but explore for yourself! Happy to support with the Plus version for further customization as well.
A Breath of Fresh Air
As someone who values online privacy and security, I've been on the lookout for a web browser that puts my data protection first. After trying out the Quiche Browser, I can confidently say this app is headed in the right direction.
The core selling point of Quiche Browser is its unwavering commitment to user privacy. By default, it blocks ads, trackers, cookie banners, and other intrusive elements that compromise your online privacy. What's more, Quiche Browser does not collect any usage data or personal information, nor does it require you to create an account. This zero-data collection policy is a refreshing change from many mainstream browsers that monetize user data.
One area where Quiche could improve is cross-device synchronization. While the app works well on a single device, the lack of iCloud or other cloud sync support means you can't easily access your bookmarks, history, and settings across multiple iOS devices. Implementing secure sync capabilities would make Quiche an even more compelling privacy-focused browser option.
Overall, Quiche Browser is a solid choice for users who prioritize online privacy and want to minimize their digital footprint. With its robust ad/tracker blocking and data non-collection policies, it provides a clean, distraction-free browsing experience. While the absence of cross-device sync is a limitation, Quiche is still a step in the right direction for privacy-conscious mobile browsing.
