This program has been developed to give Windows Mobile users the facility to have a very useful and functional tabbed web browser. Other tabbed mobile web browsers are either bulky, slow, or not free. This program is entirely free to use and uses Pocket Internet Explorer to show the web pages.

Features

  • Tabbed Browser
  • Standard Navigation Buttons (Back, Forward, Refresh, Stop)
  • Open links in new tab
  • Duplicate tab
  • View Source (customise external viewer/editor)
  • Remember closed tabs
  • Remember typed URLs
  • Full Screen mode
  • Hide Tabs Option (to increase viewing area)
  • Various Tab Options (Close, Close Others, Reload All)

Notes

This program has been developed using Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 2.0.7045.0, which is required to run it. Only this version will work as there are numerous bugs in previous versions, as well as this one, but this is the one that is most stable and enables the functionality to open new tabs.

Favourites are managed by Pocket Internet Explorer.

There is a known issue when navigating, the back/forward buttons do not function correctly. For example, when you click on a link for the first time you should be allowed to "go back". However, due to bugs in Microsoft .NET Compact 2.0 this does not register correctly that you can "go back". However, there is a workaround, which is to go to another tab and then return. This then registers correctly.

Compatibility

Windows Mobile 5
Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 2.0
