Hi Christopher,
You are correct in that Chrom and Firefox are truly multi-platform browsers,
however, you're a bit out of date on Safari and Windows. Apple discontinued
updating Safari for Windows in 2012 and a year later even stopped supporting
bookmark sync with Safari in the iCloud Control Panel. See this link for
more:

I'm confused by the question. Chrome is a browser from Google. It runs on
Windows, Linux, IOS, Android and probably more platforms. Safari is a
browser from Apple and it runs on Apple products and Windows. I'm sorry if I
didn't answer your question.

David,
Just to be sure, Chrome is more Windows-based for Google while Safari
is more Apple-based for Google?

I actually tried Chrome again and this time I was able to pull up
a website.. It loaded very fast. I do think it is faster than Safari
is. However I do find that some of the functions that are easy to
find and Safari are not easily found in Chrome. There does not seem
to be a good menu structure in the program. There are not a lot of
buttons to do things.

Hi all
I tried Safari with the marks and Spencers website and VoiceOver
kept jumping all over the place. Would Chrome or another browser I
tried Instabrowser solve this problem? If so I'll go ahead and install
Instabrowser on my iPhone since I have Chrome already. I'll also
install Chrome and Instabrowser on my iPad. Any comments greatly
appreciated.
Thanks!

If I'm going to launch a browser directly, I launch Google
Chrome. I
find it a bit faster than Safari, and I like the fact that my
favorites
are synced with my other systems. I know I could do this with
iCloud,
but I use Chrome and Firefox on my other systems instead of
Internet
Explorer and Safari. I also had a problem in a previous version
of IOS
where double tapping on a link in Safari would double tap on
some other
text on the page. This just got me into the habit of using
Google Chrome..
All that being said, since Safari is the default browser, and
this can't
be changed in IOS, if I double tap on a link in a message and
Safari
comes up then I'll just stay in Safari.

Hi Christopher. What is your preference. Google Chrome, or
Safari.

I use Google Chrome quite frequently on my iPhone. I had not
noticed
that large parts of it were inaccessible. If you have any
specifics,
I could check it out and let you know what I run into.

I
also had problems with the browser called Mercury which was very

to
get the address bar to show up on that browser.
