Perfect Browser 3 ($0.99)
Version – 3.0
REVIEW – “A new way to surf the web!”
It has been quite some time since the first “browsers” showed up in the App Store. 
Some of them have been useful but unfortunately developers were originally not able to use anything the default Safari rendering engine as their Iphone apps backbone. Well as of recently Apple has been approving a lot of apps that were previously being rejected. One of those apps seems to be Perfect Browser, due to my experiences with the rendering engine of it!
One of the first things I noticed when I first opened up Perfect Browser 3 was that it looks and feels more like a desktop browser than any app that I have ever used! While most apps 
have supported more than one “tab” in their interface, almost all/none of them done it using “tabs” much like a traditional browser.
When you open this app up for the first time you will be bombarded with little pop up messages telling you all about some of this apps more advanced features. Once you make it past all of the pop ups you will see the main browser window. From here you have access to a menu at the bottom of the screen with a variety of options that range from simple things like bookmarks to more advanced options and features like a “find” feature to find to help you find content on the page you are looking at!
The tab interface in this app is extremely good! It not only helps you to have several several pages open at once, but it does it in a way that feels more like a traditional computer browser. Not only that, but it is extremely simple to make any menu’s in this app disappear. You will see little arrows to the right of every menu bar, and also a box with arrows in the lower right hand corner of the screen that will actually shrink all of the menu bars at the same time!
Some of the other advanced features of this app include the ability to turn browser history on/off, activate “hyper scroll” which makes it extremely easy to move quickly around a web page from top to bottom! This feature, coupled with the web page search make it so much easier to find things on the internet that you just 
might forget that you are using a mobile device!
Another great feature of this app is the ability open any link from within the app in Safari if you so choose. You can also open a webpage that you have open in Safari in Perfect Browser by setting up a bookmark to use to go there. This cross-compatibility makes it much easier 
to integrate Perfect Browser into your normal everyday use.
One of the things that impressed me the most about this app is the improved rendering engine. I know for a fact that there are a couple of sites that I visit on a regular basis that have problems showing up correctly in the default Safari App. I am happy to report that several of these rendered much better from within Perfect Browser 3!
While Safari is definitely one of the best mobile browsers available, it is still nice to see a few decent alternates available. If; however, you have been looking for a web browser with more features than Safari, this is simply a must have app! At just $0.99 for a limited time only you should definitely grab this one before the price goes back up!

perfect browser 3 is sweet !
Perfect Browser’s function on remembering username / password don’t work on all websites. Although their email technical support is prompt and courteous, they cannot really help. It is ver 3.0 and yet this basic function cannot work !
So i downloaded a sound file with perfect browser – where is it? I can not find it? Not in Dtunes or any other place…
Any ideas?
