Does the in-app 1P browser have extra security? Can I search home buying there & not get tracked? I usually use Duck Duck Go. Which is better, security-wise? (I have a VPN but certain lending sites won’t allow access to their site for the IP that I get when I use the VPN.)

    Hi @jenniferbga

    Does the in-app 1P browser have extra security?

    It does not. It is essentially just Safari wrapped in 1Password's UI.

    Can I search home buying there & not get tracked?

    Safari has an option in the Settings app to "prevent cross-site tracking," which may help, but I wouldn't describe it as total prevention from being tracked.
