1Browser question

How secure is 1Browser? Also, as is common among mobile browsers, there isn't any indication to differentiate between http and https on the location bar.

How secure is 1Browser?

1Browser uses iOS' UIWebView, like all other third-party browsers on iOS. Do you have any specific questions we could answer?

Also, as is common among mobile browsers, there isn't any indication to differentiate between http and https on the location bar.

You're correct — we're currently missing this feature. But, it is fairly high on our developers' to do list. Thanks for the feedback.

My issue is that I haven't a clue as to what I'm "doing" on the mobile web. I can only assume that it is http (insecure) in most sites that I visit when https will work as well. I have rely on what Apple or Android etc tells me with regard to safety.

Hi @wkleem,

Thanks so much for following up! I can certainly understand your concern here, and I've added a vote for you on the https request in our issue tracker. :)

Hi

After having updated all my devices to 7.1.2, I have just noticed a lock on the location that I never noticed before. Either that or I wasn't paying close attention... ! I was visiting the yahoo.com landing page.

I noticed the lock in both mobile Safari and Chrome but not in 1Browser. Please enable it (or add the ability to do so).

Hi @wkleem,

Thanks for following up here. This is something that our developers are looking into, I'll remind them that you're keen to see this feature implemented soon!
