Nip is a minimalist web browser for the small tasks you need to take on quickly and get back to your life. Things like:
- A restaurant menu that’s behind a QR code
- A quick Google search
- Checking out a link a friend sent you
Because of that, Nip doesn’t have many of the features you might typically expect in a web browser:
- No tabs
- No bookmarks
- No extensions
- No AI
For iPhone, through Apple’s TestFlight.
Limiting Frequent Sites
A single tab is simple enough, but some folks also like to use Nip to limit their habit of repeatedly visiting the same sites, whether that’s social media, news sites, or online shopping. Nip isn’t meant to keep you from visiting these sites if you need to, but once you’ve visited a site, you can set Nip to lock it for an amount of time that keeps you from visiting it again and again.
Privacy
Nip collects no data and sends no data anywhere. Location data is only used when a site requests it. Browsing history is kept on your phone for 30 days and can be viewed and cleared at any time.
