There are various web browsers available for macOS, and most users oscillate between popular titles, such as Safari, Opera, Google Chrome, or Firefox. iCab is yet another alternative for navigating the internet, and tries to incorporate by default all sorts of useful functions.
Since it retains the design of a classic web browser, finding your way around iCab is quite easy and intuitive: start by writing URLs in the address bar, and then navigate its content in the main area.
iCab also provides basic capabilities, such as recording your browsing history, allowing you to create and manage bookmarks, adjusting the font size, extracting the RSS feeds available on the page, and so on.
First off, iCab offers you the possibility to filter the content displayed on a certain website / group of websites: you can choose not to display images, embedded iframes, Java applets, JavaScripts, to change the default browser identity, and much more.
Moreover, iCab provides a Kiosk mode, records all HTML errors, comes with a download and a link manager, allows you to visualize the page source code, helps you deal with HTML cookies, enables you to browse in private mode and more.
Besides the classic web browsing functions that one should expect when launching a web browser, iCab also integrates a number of functions that are normally made available by third party applications, or various extensions.
If you are looking for a browser that includes a cookies / download / links manager, is able to browse in private mode, and can filter the webpages content, iCab certainly deserves a try.
What's new in iCab 6.2.2:
- The bookmarks sync feature via WebDAV is now able to either save the bookmarks as HTML file or as PLIST file (the latter was the only format tah was supported before). The format is chosen based on the file extension that is configured for the bookmarks file (the file extension ".html" saves the file in HTML format, the extension ".plist" saves the file as PLIST). The HTML format allows direct export/import from/to other browsers, but because many bookmarks features of iCab are not available in other browsers, these can get lost when exchanging the bookmarks with other browsers. The PLIST format is more compact and will always preserve all data, but other browsers won't support it.
- Bugfix: Changing the favorites folder in the bookmarks did not immediately save the bookmarks.
- Bugfix: Solves an issue when FavIcons could not be loaded and then a wrong icon was shown
- Bugfix: The option "JavaScript is allowed to change the window size" is now ignored if the window is currently opened as Tab. This way no other Tabs in the same window will be resized anymore.
