About Shimmer Browser
Introducing Shimmer Browser - The focus browser!
Your style - 3 visual styles to choose from, resizable sidebar with a compact icon-only made, and all buttons are fully customisable.
Arc-like - save tabs, organise them into folders, sync via iCloud.
No more doom-scrolling - set time limits on saved tabs.
Clutter-free - block annoyances on the web, quickly clean up unsaved tabs, or set them to auto-close!
Tab triage - saved tabs detect links to other sites, and present them in tab triage with options to save for later.
Tabs on your homescreen - add widgets to your homescreen and select the tabs they show.
Give it a try! It’s free up to 4 tabs at once, so you can get a sense of the browsing experience. If you like it, you can unlock the full experience and help me add more features!

Latest updates
3.3.0
v3.3.0 - A fresh new design!
• A bottom ‘dock’ area on iPhone houses the address bar and additional navigation buttons, dismisses on scroll.
• Fully configurable buttons! Build your own toolbars.
• The sidebar resizes down to just icons now! (Hold down on the sidebar or hover with a cursor to view tab names)
• Floating stop button (optionally) appears during page load, allowing you to (optionally) forgo the reload button.
• More context menus! Lots of the default buttons have context menus now, such as the toggle sidebar button and new tab button.
• Shimmer can now request permission to access local data such as microphone, camera, and photo library (retroactively editing per-site permissions not yet supported, but it prompts for initial permission per-site and I figure this is better than crashing).
• Many, many bug fixes.
You can tell this is a big update because my update notes are short - I’m just handwaving some general huge features and leaving you to figure out the details for this one!
