Safari Browser alternatives?

VPN
1

Hey Guys I’ve got a question concerning Webbrowsers for the iOS 11.4 (still dunno if I should update) but I’m confused to how a vpn browser (Aloha) gets you a faster
Ping and download benchmark than the regular safari browser ?
That’s weird since the Ip aswell as the location provided by searchengines are still part from each other. Like, literally physicly…
Benchmarking scores in multiple tests resulted in a 10-15% net gain for the vpn…

Thanks :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:

Brave Browser, Private Browser, are good secure browsers, Red Onion Browser is probably the most secure.

The other one I really like is Perfect Web Browser it is like Safari on steroids it has a lot of privacy features and search engines and you can add more I added Duckduckgo for example.

It used to be a paid browser but not it is free, the old paid version is still out there just make sure you install the newer free one should you try it.

Never trust Free VPN’s. They sell all your data. Nothing is free. You pay with your data.

Brave Browser, Firefox Focus, or Onion Browser are the best options for iOS.

Hi, here is how it could be faster with VPN, physically.

When you run tests, your device transfer test load of data between Point A (your device) and Point B (server you are currently download test load). Between A and B there are various hops (your router, ISP, ISP-to-ISP communications, data center, etc). And the speed is determine by the speed of the slowest connection between them.

With VPN it is the same, but the route itself would be a bit different, and it is possible that slowest hops are not included in this route, that is why you may see improvement. On the other hand, it may be a bit slower on other routes than your regular connection.

We in Aloha have a lot of servers world wide, connected one to another on the fastest routes available so we try to minimize slowest routes for you, and here is an example that it do help (again, not always).

Heya, it’s not always the case. Aloha never sold, sell, or will sell data. Yes, VPN is free but there are limitations - it works only in the browser (so far). We earn on partners we place on speed dial, non-personalized advertisement we put through API to make sure no data leaks here, and on in-app purchases, not on user data.

  1. Even Aloha’s employees doesn’t have access to VPN connections - when an employee logs in to a VPN server it drops all the connections and does not accept any new. After it’s been serviced and admin logs out, server are okay to go with new connections.
  2. All logs are turned off for privacy and costs reasons (we have over 30M users worldwide, image how big would be logs)
  3. We don’t collect any personal data (even your emails unlike other VPNs).

SigaVPN is free and doesn’t sell your data. It gets donations and funded by some organizations. Also it’s no log service.

I just took a look into SigaVPN.
I was surprised to see that despite being based in the US, it’s actually pretty privacy respecting. Which is usually unheard of in the realm of Free VPNs. So good for them. But when it comes to privacy and security combined. I still prefer Mullvad VPN.
