Hi All, Instabrowser, the iOS web browser app that displays web pages in a format inspired by Instapaper and Safari Reader (without extraneous images, links, etc.), is free today, but only short time longer, I think, since I'm posting this late. It normally costs $2.99, so I'd grab this now.
• Instabrowser (free for short time, normally $2.99) by Red Mage https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/instabrowser/id527221992?mt=8 Here's the link to the AppleVis entry: http://www.applevis.com/apps/ios/utilities/instabrowser This was also the subject of a Tech Doctor podcast earlier this year, "Instabrowser faster than Safari": http://www.dr-carter.com/?p=246 The Tech Doctor Blog and Podcast contains show notes, but the direct link to the podcast is: http://dr-carter.com/podcasts/20130720.mp3 This app was one of the AppleVis pick of the month iOS apps for August. For those of you who use Instapaper or Readability, or make use of the Safari Reader function that was inspired by Instapaper's simpler and more accessible rendering of web pages (leaving out extraneous images, links, etc.), Instabrowser aims to use a similar display directly in an iPhone browser as a way of speeding up display of web pages, especially on slow connections, and reducing cell phone data usage. As an aside, this often improves the accessibility and quality of the reading experience. Just as Safari Reader doesn't work for all web pages, Instabrowser may not be able to improve the readability of all complex web pages. This app is deisgned for iPhone or iPod Touch, but can be used on an iPad in 2x mode.
