Hi, thanks for you feedback
You're totally right, the function is missing. I will try to implement this for the next release.
When clicking a link outside the app (from a email for example), and after having chosen PopWeb to go further, just before loading the link in a new webpage, it will either create a new space by default, or maybe propose to use an existant one ? What do you think ?

Thanks again for your contribution !

That sounds perfect, 90% of the links I hit are as you said, in an email, or Web page or fb, g+ etc., as long as I am given the option to chose popweb browser just once or always, I'll be happy

In your Help section you might want to add an "Overview Mode" heading, and describe how double tapping somewhere in overview takes you to that spot. That's a nifty feature! ?

Maybe an added feature to the right menu of: Rest All to Default Size. This would resize all web pages back to the default percentage setting in the left menu. ☺

Totally agree with that. That would really come in handy

Hi, Lots of thanks for your congrats and contribution

You're right, an "Overview Mode" explanation is missing in the help section. I will add it.
And i should probably get that whole section redesigned in order to be more readable

Thanks for the Restore to default size function ! I haven't thought of this one yet. Will add it for sure in the next releases.

Kewl browser you made and thank you I paid the $1 for it and really like it. I would like to have a Download option. Or am i missing it. If i click to download the .apk for this app it FC's and crashes I sent you the crash report.

Hi
I am very happy that you like this app.
I haven't implemented yet a real download option. For the moment, direct downloads will probably not work.
In the meantime, just long click a link (which contains the file you need to download) to show the context menu and choose the option "save/download link". This should trigger the download.

Could you please try again with this method ? It is still does not work, could you give me the link you are using so that i could try on my side ?
Thanks a lot.

My Input:
Probably create a new Space with a new WebPage (of the externally opened link) in that new Space.

This relates but would be dressing (only consider if you get bored):
If the new Space could somehow be labeled (in the side menu) to denote where it came from, i.e. "From External Link" or if it recognize where it came from "From Google+, Email, YouTube". Buy again, this part totally icing on very cool cake!

For the first question, not yet unfortunately. I am stilll working on this one, but I wish to deliver something intuitive enough so that you don't lose your bearings between the possibility to resize a webview, its content (zoom in webview), and finally the space.
But you are right, the Overview mode proposed is very limited. More gestures and interactions is needed.
!

I've obviously never made something for the public to use or I would have considered that. You're right.

Maybe take the slider from Overview Mode and use it the Space (but make it not quite so tall) at the bottom for zooming the Space. Far left would be max zoom-in, just before far right would be max zoom-out but still in Space Mode. Next to the slider (in the bottom right corner of the screen) have your Overview mode button that would take you from Space Mode to Overview Mode. IDK, you're doing great and I'm sure you have a vision and path to get what you want done.

For the 2nd question, you wish to create a new webpage from a link inside an existing webpage, without linking this new webpage to the existant one ? Is that right ?
Also, would you like to be able to remove any link ? Meaning to removing link between to webpages for example?
!

Yes to both. And maybe to carry your idea a little farther, be able to be able to take that middle WebPage out and start as the beginning of a new thread. So it would be like: A-B-C-D, pull B out to new thread, so now it's: A-C-D and B-(x-y-z-whatever).

The last of my hair brained ideas would be in Overview Mode only long clicking on a thread brings up and option to "Send to New Space".

Very sorry for the long post!

Nice interface. Just downloaded it and still getting the hang of it. Going to review it on my YouTube channel once I get a hang of all of the settings. Quick question, can I have multiple pages open in one space?

Thank you for the reply. I tried the long press and i did get the 4 options. I tapped the save/download link and it downloaded a .php file and not your .apk for this app (PopWeb). So just go to the first page here using PopWeb and try to see your result. Thank you for looking into downloading files from your browser

Also i cannot open the .php file not that i care too lol Using rooted Galaxy Note 3 Tmobile USA 4.4.2

Hi, thanks for trying it

Yes, of course you can have multiple webpages in one space. Just long press anywhere in the space and a new wepage will popup, asking you to enter a request to search or a url/adress. (You can also move and resize this page anywhere in the space)
Also, if you click on a link inside a webpage, a new one will be created loading the link you selected. If the webpage is in fullscreen, this will not happen (unless you chose the corresponding option from the context menu)

You can find more explanations on the available gestures and functions from the help section on the left menu

Feel free to ask any more info

@popinterfaces Adobe Flash compatibility would be nice also.

Its been a little hard getting away from Opera and other tabbed browsers but really dig this one. Using it right now actually ? Can't wait for more improvements/additions.

djimne · Jul 13, 2014

Slow

It's real good in all the ways described, but it runs a little slow on my device. Idk if that's just because of my device's power or what but do you guys know any ways to make it run faster?

@popinterfaces FYI if you look at the 2 diamonds with ?'s that is a sunglasses smiley : cool : sent from PopWeb. So my guess there is something wrong with the browser? I'm using Material L KB from the playstore no root but it does not do that anywhere else except for using PopWeb.

Could you describe your problem further? Is it the loading speed, any lags while scrolling and surfing or is the application overall slow?

If you have the same problems with other browser its probably your hardware.

Hi everyone !

A new update has just been released : 0.9.7.

As requested, I have added

So emojis from Google don't work but they do work from Samsung KB using PopWeb paid version.
I really like to be able to recommend apps i use and this will be one of them.

Wow, that's a stock of improvements in a short period.

huge thump up for you:good:
i have some suggestion for make it more awesome:
1-if you can add PIE control like the AOSP browsers
2-im from iraq so...facebook,youtube and twitter are blocked here so any thing like proxy or vpn will help a lot
3-add flash player support like in dolphin browser for KitKat Roms
that it ...thanks in advance:highfive::good::good::fingers-crossed:

1-Sorry, didn't have any time to check about Pie Controls yet. I will take a look for the next releases.
2-You can configure a vpn access directly in the settings/network section of you phone. Also, there are a lot a well developed apps that already manage proxy and vpn. If you were thinking of something else, please tell me.
3-Flash player is not supported anymore on android nor by Abobe nor by Google. Without starting a debate on its usefulness, i know that adding its compatibility will require a lot of work for an very undetermined future on android. However, I will keep looking into its possible integration for future releases.
