Red Onion - Darknet Browser Reviews

Better security and more privacy... what more could we ask for from our technology these days. It's nice to have it require a pin or Touch ID to access, so when you hand your phone to someone (to look at or find something for you), they don't come across any personal information, "suggestions" (from your history), etc. Also I've noticed lately that when we clear Safari's cache, cookies, history (from the settings); and click advanced - website data, some cookies/websites won't delete... even when you delete them one by one, they go away until go back into that selection tab, they just reappear. I have a feeling it has something to do with my location being fetched randomly by the time zone setting... (which I have always had turned off). I'd delete Safari if I could.

RedOnion is pretty good with securing your information through many tests I have conducted. Although like everything it's not perfect and the first few nodes it passes through are insecure, even though it it highly unlikely someone can snatch that information it is still insecure. Other than that there's not much tweaking to make RedOnion more user friendly because it is very well done. The only user friendly problem while using RedOnion is that when you scroll down you need to go all the way up again to change your page to do whatever you wish to do. Other than that RedOnion is absolutely great at downloading videos, sound files, etc. and I haven't seen any applicant have a proxy mesh and download this fast, so good job. RedOnion is awesome and I'd rate this 9.9 with a repentant on top!

I’ve been using this browser for about a year now. The downloading/offline viewing features are incredible, and it does its job to ensure you remain anonymous when browsing. This is the perfect browser for anyone interested in being able to store files such as MP3s, MP4s, WEBMs, and so fourth. And for everything it’s doing in the background, I have to say, it’s very quick. It’s full of security options, HTTP options, and other various settings. There are a few small bugs- but it takes quite a long time and very specific circumstances to notice them. However. it’s totally worth the money. Browse quickly, securely, and with loads of additional features at your fingertips with Red Browser!

I spent a couple of weeks trying many of the free tor browsers available in RedOnion Store, and although a few allowed me to navigate many spaces on the deep web, none of them offered a way to actually view videos and media like this browser does. I was hesitant to spend money, fearing that I would also face the same restrictions on different sites blocked by the free browsers, but Red Onion actually lets me freely browse a ton of addresses that seem arbitrarily blocked by the others. So far this is well worth the purchase and I would highly recommend it to anyone finding dissatisfaction with the free web clients they've tried before.

So I was curious to see if you could even deep web on a mac safely and I still think there's some fishy things apple does in regards to users content but for simple deep web stuff like alpha bay this is perfect, and the 4-digit passcode protection for every time the screen closes so no one but you can possibly be viewing your websites is great! I'm thinking the only thing I could criticize is speed but it's running Tor and is definitely more than bearable :) fire up your VPN and get your bitcoins ready :D

I'm writing this review because it's a requirement to unlock the Pro version. This sort of extortion should be banned by Apple. All reviews positive or negative should be completely optional.
Did I receive the Pro version? I wouldn't know how to determine that since RedOnion doesn't contain an IAP. Was I duped into giving a 5 star review and got nothing in return. It's possible.
From my use of RedOnion I will say it's very slow which was expected as all Tor browsers are. Does it protect my anonymity? I can't say.

I think everything about RedOnion is good though there are some features that can make it perfect...
I believe one is that really necessary is a toolbar at the bottom of the page that includes home and bookmarks.
Other than that it's a bit slow and I believe it can be worked out. Yet there is no other encrypted browser that I would prefer over this.

This is better than any other. It has fingerprint protection etc… and it always works plus…the name, and a turn JavaScript option off. I have used it for 5 years it’s perfect and minimalistic for an anti-socket programmer that’s cautious but I haven’t looked at what sockets it opens so I’m not sure I’m sure it goes through my vpn interface which has been exploited…

I tried using the free onion browser before getting this one. One of the key things I wanted to be able to do was download files to my phone. However, in all other respects the general performance/usability for web browsing is not as good as the free onion browser. I've found that I tend to use that one instead whenever I don't need to download something. Even when I do use red onion, it is often so hard to actually download whatever I wanted to download that I typically just give up.

My suggestion is just use the free onion browser.

When loading on an iPhone (I have a 5S), it seems to take forever. But once it's loaded, it works great. I use it on my iPhone and my iPad Air for anonymous browsing. I know that "Big Brother" (NSA) has absolutely no problem following me no matter what I use, but at least this helps a little bit. I'm not trying to hide anything, but this is the gateway to the dark web.

Great App ! Has good accessing security like a Pin and fingerprint verification. RedOnion runs smoother than the .99 cent version by Mike Tigas, but lacks some of the browsing security that it has. If you want to access the Deep Web it will take you there, but I wouldn't do much more than looking. It's not totally secure like the Tor browser bundle running on a Linux PC, but it's definitely better than using Safari.

The new icon is great! — Not that there was anything wrong with the old one.

As for RedOnion , it works quite well. An issues with speed, and what not just seem to be an issue of using TOR's network itself. Overall though, given all the encryption and privacy issues that is quickly eroding civil liberties, it's nice to have an option to use TOR on iOS.

I'm in my 70’s and don't know what a torrent is, but this browser is very friendly and works like a charm. I love being able to choose so quickly and easily between downloading and direct streaming because I'm crawling along on an iPad 2 and TV shows and films often stutter in other browsers. If that starts to happen in Red Onion I just download first and smoothness happens!

Well worth the price. This is the best thing going.

I used the other Tor Onion browser before, but after I paid for the ad-free version they changed it to a subscription service and raised the price!

So I tried Red Onion out and it's so much better. It doesn't have the bugs that other one did. It's faster and more user-friendly.

It is excellent...even DO NOT think about other tor browser apps for ipad/iphone... RedOnion is an absolutely must-have app for all.

Update: As we expect from Omar, it is excellent...Just I wish it has an option to just backup bookmarks and browser setting in icloud without syncing downloaded files, and also ios 9 split view.

I spent about 2 bucks on RedOnion....yep, spent money on a so-called "secure" browser; which by the way, blocks certain sites because of my IP provided by "Tor" connection itself. Yelp of all websites is blocked. A review site. It won't connect me. Come in guys, can this be fixed? You are advertised as a very good private secure web browser and I'd expect to get something out of what I payed because normally, I wouldn't pay for a browser of all things. Update?

i have in issue with RedOnion since 2 months the issue is when i start opening RedOnion its take about 1 min from 0 to 10 % after that i wait more then 20 minutes but nothing change its still 10% and the doesn't work anymore it was work very well but now dont idk whats the problem i hope you guys see my problem and fex it and yes my internet speed is very good about 20 MG and i tryed to uninstall RedOnion and download it againe but its still doesn't work so I guess 99% the problem is from RedOnion .

What you read in their description is exactly what you will get with RedOnion . No letdowns whatsoever!
I've ran a sniffer on my connection and get no external communications of any kind.
I do not give 5-Star reviews lightly and it's only been after using this Tor Browser for over a year now that I give this review.
Great job Devs!!

I like the browser and its interface, but the buttons are not always responsive. For instance, I keep clicking the upper right tabs button and nothing happens. Also the backspace button doesn't work unless I change to another tab. Unfortunate blemishes on an otherwise great app.

I always go into secured websites preference panels before usage, but this application has a decent amount of settings to configure. I liked that, promoting security to the fullest. The application loads pretty fast I would say, especially depending on Internet services. I'm an average user of Onion Browser. Works great!

Thank you developers :)
