The DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser for iOS, an open-source mobile web browser with built-in private search, third-party tracker blocking, ad blocking, and optional VPN and private AI chat features. This repository has been archived in favor of the unified duckduckgo/apple-browsers codebase and no longer accepts contributions.
Use cases
- browse the web on iPhone without being tracked
- block ads and trackers in a mobile browser
- search privately instead of using Google
- force HTTPS encryption on sites I visit
- chat privately with AI models without my data being used
- hide my email address with @duck.com aliases
When to choose
- you want a privacy-focused iOS browser whose source code you can inspect
- you need built-in tracker and ad blocking plus private search in one app
- you want to contribute to or fork DuckDuckGo's Apple browser code (via the new apple-browsers repo)
When to avoid
- you want to contribute code - the project moved to duckduckgo/apple-browsers
- you need a browser for Android, Windows, or Mac (use the respective DuckDuckGo apps)
- you need extensions or advanced developer tooling found in desktop browsers
