iPhone has been immensely popular and has just received another boost to its popularity as the choice of browser for an iPhone is longer restricted only to Safari. There are now four more browsers available in the iTunes App Store. Let’s take a look at them:

The Edge Browser: This is the only free browser on offer. The main feature of this browser is that it completely de-clutters your web page on your iPhone screen. Except for the reception, time, and battery bar at the top of your screen, there will only be the web page on your screen. For once, you will be able to see entire web pages without the clutter that Safari usually presents us with.

Incognito: This browser is available on the iTunes app store for $1.99. As the name suggests, this browser allows you to surf the Internet without leaving any record of your surfing history. In the case of Incognito, your entire browsing history disappears as soon as you close the application, so that not even the record of your presence on the Internet exists. This can be very useful for a company phone use or for the discreet gentleman.

Shaking web: This browser is also priced at $1.99 on the iTunes App Store. As the name suggests, the browser makes use of the iPhone’s accelerometer and compensates for small hand and body movement that make shake your screen. By moving the screen in the opposite direction from the movement, it is able to create and illusion of steadiness.

WebMate: This browser is available for just 99 cents at the iTunes App Store. Webmate provides a very useful facility of tabbed browsing while using the Internet. It allows you to collect and open multiple tabs at a time and allows you to switch back and forth among the open tabs.
