Desktop Browser • Zoomable Reviews

by NameOriginal2160

Upon going onto the rockstar games website and a few other sites I saw it was exactly the same as the mobile browser versions where as Opera GX’s desktop mode actually gives you the pc version of the website so just download that and it doesn’t even advertise it as it’s main function like the garbage scam app does👎👎👎👎👎

Once your purchase the lifetime pro, you start getting some frustrating glitches that ruin your experience.

Whenever I try to go into landscape mode and zoom it, it would completely go to a blank page and erase all the work you’ve been working on!

What a frustrating app that doesn’t deserve this high of a rating with such a bad glitch like this for it’s paying users.

I paid for premium before taking it through it’s paces. Desktop behavior appears anything but. Pages don’t load as expected, poor JavaScript support presumably.

It’s an interesting take on the browser. I want to love DesktopBrowserZoomable. I look forward to future improvements.

Any time I try to log in to a google account with this browser, it says "This browser or app may not be secure" and won't let me log in.

Most of my stuff uses google accounts, so this browser becomes totally useless to me.

I'm so shocked they haven't fixed this issue, it's got to be a huge bottleneck for most of their userbase.

Other than that, it works great. But that won't do any good for anyone with google accounts.

The good:
It’s fast
Easy to make websites larger or smaller with zoom slider

The bad:
No way to print directly from DesktopBrowserZoomable : you must open the document in Safari to print.
No tab support: multiple window view is in tile-like format.
No “remember login” feature: you must have an external password app like Keeper to recall logins.
No favorites bar at the top of the browser: you must go to a separate menu to see favorited websites.

I really like using this browser, really fast page loading. Easy to use but can't figure out how to inport bookmarks.

by Hans Psudo

Great overall app experience and the full desktop mode is actually functional and websites respect and treat the session as if you were accessing from a desktop computer.
I purchased the pro expansion and don’t regret it!
Not being able to set Zoomable as my default browser is my only complaint. I have to share links to DesktopBrowserZoomable or copy and paste. Would be really nice to add that to settings, and would be 5 stars for sure!

by Esliminator

Anytime I “share” a site by tapping the share button, or thru the menu, the entire app closes. Fix this and 5 stars for sure!

Wish it had a full desktop keyboard function with control, shift, command, arrows, etc. trying to use some design studios and it won’t let me move stuff around

To my email accounts on it. I try to log in to my gmail account on it - to use my news log ins and it refuses everytime to allow me to do it. States it isn't a secure browser. Please explain. Thank you. Great app though. Not other app has these type of settings; available.

This is a real nice web browser. It has a clean And efficient interface. It's also quite fast. I've tested it on numerous sites and the full desktop support works pretty well. There are some places where it just doesn't work at all, such as Yahoo Mail. Instead of giving you the desktop version, it gives you a stripped down mobile version of that site. However, so does every iOS browser that I've tried (except the original opera, which I miss very much)

I bought it for the zooming feature, which is the best I've seen on any browser for iOS. No matter what zoom level you choose, it automatically fits it to the page. This really does come in handy with websites that do a poor job of recognizing that you're on a mobile platform with limited screen space. This alone makes it worth the five dollars for me.

The only downsides I see for using zoomable As a primary or secondary browser are:
-bookmark importing is complicated. They use Json files. If you don't have a lot of bookmarks, this is not a big deal
-no search capability for bookmarks.

Looks like they do regular updates, so here's hoping they will consider this feedback.

Every time I find a website that doesn’t work in Chrome or Safari, I switch to this. More recently I’ve been using it by default. If you’re a developer, check out DashTabs by the same company. Saves me so much time working with dev consoles on the go :)

Built in ad blocking is my only request

by Jennkrich

Though I’m super busy today, i had to take the time to review this amazing app. After downloading and trying several, this one performed sooo much better.

by Cosnet

Finally a browser that works just like your desktop.. So many pluses. Saved tabs, selectable search engine, simple to operate.

by Izorropirate

This is the only desktop browser app that I used where the website didn’t detect that I was on mobile. This allowed me to access desktop browser only features on websites! Exactly what I needed

by Flyingkoala99

DesktopBrowserZoomable is awesome! I love using it to browse the desktop version of Gmail. Can you add functionality that allows for trackpads mode? (Using the whole screen as a trackpad). Refer to chrome Remote Desktop on iOS as an example. Or DesktopBrowserZoomable Splashtop Desktop also does this well. The downsides of those are that you’re remoting in and there’s some lag. It would be so great to be able to move a cursor and click for fine control while desktop browsing!!!

I love DesktopBrowserZoomable because it always lets me view websites in desktop mode when this only works sometimes on other browsers. I love look, design, and customization options as well.

by OcampaXYZ

Sometimes i do need to visit some websites which don’t have a mobile version and this tool can help me on that.

by FARDIQUERA

This is the real deal,my congratulations to the team, thanks for this great tool.

Able to easily access Desktop-version-only sites with ease and convenience

by JonathanFDahl

This is a fantastic app. As a person that needs to view desktop sites on the go, I've always been limited while working from an iPad. This browser has completely unblocked me. Coupled with the Magic Keyboard with the trackpad for dragging modifiable website sections, this gives me the true desktop experience. I also love the zoom and full screen features. Well done and thank you! Well worth the price.

by DelanderSmithee

Thank the devs for creating such a great little app. Does exactly as advertised. Plunk down a few bucks like I did and support your devs.

by Cconover2

Wow, this browser is amazing. The only complaint that I have is that there should be a way to allow pop ups, because there is a website I use everyday that needs me to sign in with my google login and I can’t because it doesn’t support pop ups. Any chance this could be added?

UPDATE:

I would like to add to my review, that their development team is so amazing and quick to respond to my request. It was only days later and it was fixed. I can now use Zoomable everyday. It is amazing what I can do from my phone now. Thank you again for an amazing product and customer support!!!!

by CzernAttack

The user interface is nice and intuitive, not crammed or bulky…I recommend this browser for OCD people like me who like things neat and clean lol

by Cscwallace

Great for web design, graphic design, working from home, and any situation where desktop browser display accuracy matters!

by KNFGPSITA

Does EXACTLY what I wanted it for. Please don't change anything about it (like adding built in ads on top of the ones sites already force on us..)

by Carlos Ortigoza

This zoom feature is ahead of it’s time! I finished my college document signing at work instead of having to wait for a computer at home! Highly recommended! The zoom feature is the feature I didn’t know I needed!!

by @daidao1982

Thank you so much for creating this amazing app

by Amari.hartman

Very very much but we

by Insomniac321

Amazing app. No ridiculous in app purchases. This is DesktopBrowserZoomable you want folks!

by Flying-Eagle89

Good job on the icon update, looks better

by GreekGawdd

No browser allows the ease of use of zoom like this one has. Thanks a lot! Extra features when you get the pro version! Get it!

by ZezDed

This is gonna solve your problem.
