Browsing privately on iOS
Private Browsing in Safari is a private way to browse. An option that activating it, allows us to browse the internet without leaving a trace of cookies, history, cache. One more of our iOS tutorials that we recommend you put into practice.
This option that Safari gives us, and also many other web browsers, serves more than anything to preserve your privacy on your device iOS The details of the navigation are not saved and the websites you visit are not shared with the rest of your devices that you may have linked.In this way, if someone takes our iPhone, for example, they will not know the page we have visited.
A very good option, if we share our device with more people.
What does Safari do when browsing privately?:
This is what happens when you turn on private mode in Safari:
- Websites you visit cannot track your browsing across multiple sessions.
- Web pages and AutoFill information are not saved.
- Websites you open aren't saved in iCloud. This means that they are not displayed when viewing all your open tabs from other linked devices.
- Your searches are not included in the smart search results list.
- If you use Handoff, Private Browsing windows are not transferred to your iOS devices or other Mac computers.
- Changes made to cookies and other website data are not saved.
- Modules that support private browsing stop storing cookies and other tracking information.
- Websites won't be able to change information stored on your device, so services typically available on those sites may work differently until you turn off Private Browsing.
