Does anybody else think the atomic browser increases web speed?

You could also try CloudBrowse since that one will even render flash pages(remotely).

The only problem is that cloudbrowse would not be a secure thing to use if your work requres your calendar and everything to be access securely. The way cloudbrowse and Opera Mini work is by haveing a remote machine on there end access the webpage and then send you a filtered or streamed version of it.


As for those suggestions to use Atomic Browser, it most likely will not work. It can fake the website into thinking its a different browser but if the website is useing something thats not supported in safari it wont work. Example: tricking a site into thinking you have firefox wont make flash on a page start working.

I looked in apps and looks like cloud browse is not available for the iPad, just iPod or iPhone.. I would like to use CB so I can see Vids w/flash!

It sounds like the website might use an ActiveX control, in which case you're out off luck.

Have you asked the IT folks at work?

I guess you could use LogMeIn or another remote desktop application to access your home computer, until you can find a solution that runs direct from the iPad.

Just a thought....

Thanks for this tip. I downloaded it; and after trying, you cannot get me to go back to Safari.

Amen to that. After reading the comments about Atomic, I broke my #1 rule and actually paid for an app!!! Gotta be the best 99¢ I have spent... lately!

Thanks for all the replies. I think ActiveX may be the problem. I tried opera mini with no luck. Will give Atomic a try just due to all the suggestions. Love all the help. Keep it coming.

If you use atomic, do you have to identify as Safari iPad for sites written in HTML5 for the iPad to work?

It's annoying that I set atomic browser to the gray safari theme and every time I start it up it takes a second to change from the default black theme...
