"Full Screen Web Browser is a great Safari companion for its cheap 99¢ price" -- Ars Technica
---------------------------------------
Browse the web free from clutter! The Full Screen Web Browser from SOPODS is a true full-screen web browser available for the iPhone and iPod Touch. This app gives you up to 40% of your screen's real estate back by hiding the buttons, address and even the status bar when you don't need them. Now you can take full advantage of the ample screen on your iPhone or iPod Touch.
How does it work? Simple! Give your iPhone or iPod Touch a shake to bring the address bar and buttons into view, then enter a URL and the control bars will slide out of the way for a true full-screen experience. Surf the web exactly like you do in Safari: tap on links, swipe to scroll, double-tap or even pinch and spread your fingers to zoom in or out.

Full screen web browsing
- 25% more viewable area than Safari in portrait mode
- Almost 40% more viewable area than Safari in landscape mode!
- Same web browsing experience as Safari on the iPhone: tap links, scrolling, zooming, etc.
- Back and forward buttons for easy navigation through your session history
Bookmarks
Bookmark your favorite webpages for easier navigation. Add, delete, reorder and edit bookmarks just like in Safari. However, unlike Safari, Full Screen even allows you to edit the page address while you are creating the bookmark (which makes it easy to add handy JavaScript bookmarklets). The default bookmarks include a link to our Safari bookmarklet instructions. Use it to send any page you're viewing in Safari to Full Screen Web Browser.
Horizontal/Landscape support
Horizontal mode is fully supported. Rotate your device right or left for larger and easier to read text and larger images. The address and button bars are also available when your device is rotated—just give it a shake!
Private web browsing
Full Screen does not save any history of your activity on the web between sessions. Recent activity is only used for the "back" and "forward" actions. Simply tap the home button and your browsing history is gone.
Homepage
Have your favorite page load when Full Screen first launches. This is easily set by tapping the action button and then the "Set as Home Page" button while you are on the page. The homepage address can also be set in the iPhone Settings app.
Complete Safari Integration
- Send any web page to Safari whenever you like by tapping the action button and then "Open in Safari"
- Send any web page back to Full Screen from Safari using our custom bookmarklet (instructions on our web site).
Send a Link
Email anyone a link to a web page by tapping the action button and then "Email Link".
We have many new and exciting features planned based on the wonderful feedback that we've received. Check us out at SOPODS.com for more info.

Customer Reviews
Needs work to catch up to the Fullbrowser application
Thank you for your generous free application I really appreciate it and can only expect you to make great updates as time goes on. The screen size is wonderful and I am sure you put in alot of hard work to making such a great application.
That being said it seems like the other application titled "Fullbrowser" is ahead of this version initially. Both will end up being $0.99 but Fullbrowser has a couple of updates already for stuff like bookmarks, and the ability to touch the bottom of the screen to pull up the control buttons (back and fourth) so you dont have to shake it everytime. Also when browsing on this application certain web pages (espn nba) seem to be a mobile version instead of what you would see on a desktop and the google search home screen doesnt save your search history the way that "Fullbrowser" app does.
I am sure all of these things will come with updates soon but I just wanted to give my 2 cents on the new application for people who are considering purchasing this. Thank you again for all the hard work you put into this application I am sure its too easy for people who write reviews to complain so I wanted to offer a constructive analysis.
Great browser!
Love it! Fast page loading, plus you can set your own homepage. This browser makes it easy to use gmail in the browser, which means you can type in landscape mode! Plus easy buttons for emailing links to friends. This browser is awesome!
very well done...
I really like this app, simple to use and I like the "shake" feature...impressive, most impressive. It's become my offical browsing app for the iphone. Keep up the good work!
