Friends Kingdom: Re: [iPad] Browser for iPads

How about an Android phone for your real estate business? I don't know how Chrome can see websites that Safari can't since Apple does not allow flash on their iOS devices. I don't see it as arrogant. I see it as trying to keep viruses, Trojans and the like from invading our iPhones.

There are other companies that make phones, so everyone has a choice.

IMHO Safari is worthless. It is so locked down that many sites don't show up at all. Also, another problem with Apple mobile devices is that without jail-breaking the device you cannot change the default browser to something like Chrome. It kills me as a real estate agent as when I send listings to potential clients, they can't see those listings unless they go through ridiculous copying of the ling and pasting in a sane browser to view them. Most people are not that savvy that they can do that. I have no idea how many clients never get to see the listings I am trying to send to them to evaluate.

Apple is very arrogant and they want to control everything. They could have it all if they would compromise a bit and let people have some flexibility. Personally I think the Apple product line can't be beat for quality, but the fact that so much cannot be adjusted, it makes it unusable in many cases.

Good luck to all of us if this is the future of computing.

All I know is many links seem dead on Safari but respond on Mercury.

All browsers use the same engine as safari on iPads.

For me Safari is really bad, links don't work gave the time. My friend told me about Mercury. There is a free copy and a pro copy in the App Store. Based on my friends recommendation I bought the pro copy for 99¢. It much better.
