What Onion Browser's own pages show
Suits
- iPhone and iPad users who want Tor access
- People on networks that censor sites
- Anyone who wants an app that keeps no browsing history
Limits worth knowing
- iOS and iPadOS only; the project points desktop and Android users to Tor Browser.
- Apple requires the WebKit component, which the project says gives less control than Firefox for anti-tracking.
- Browsing over Tor is slower because traffic passes through volunteer relays.
