Mobile Safari (iOS 16.2) Big question about it's lack of obvious features.
Hi there!
Iam not so long time ago decided to change Android for iOS, and start with just test and try with totally diff, separated sim, all accounts, etc. Because my main target is totally cut off everything with google ecosystem.
And in this case Iam prefer to use the most as i can by native and Apple (so no ever 3rd party browsers etc.)
I heard the main statement that iOS is totally privacy related in all the ways.
But Iam very very dissapoint that so famous Safari has a huge lack of features.
For example:
1) Why there is no option to turn OFF JavaScripts totally, and turn on for each site i want? (or vice versa for example: turn off per site i want)
2) Site options per site is only: camera/mic/location/reader/desktop-mobile/and text size.
Why i cant has an option to turn off sounds and media autoplay for all sites, and then give permission per site?
3) Maybe iam just doesnt found but seems its really need to obtain 3rd party extensions for Safari to has an option for dark theme for sites?
Bonus question: iam really searched a lot and asked a lot, but cant clear one thing.
NATIVE KILL SWITCH for vpn usage.
in any Android if you set up vpn tunnel (any way: by apps, by direct input (not all protocols ofc).
there is automatic appears an 2 options for that vpn connection (at system level):
- always on(stay connected)
- block all connections w/o vpn.
SO, when you has both turn on, and then make an disconnect (manually or just turn off in app, OR connection breaks) -- NO APPS can make connections, even mostly "system" as it seems)
WHAT EVER I TRYED I cant make this happen on iphone. (apps, native ikev2 manual setups, wireguard setups. and i has an a very premium diff vpn services. only at router level with wifi it can be, but its no anyway related to mobile os any kind, as you can see, obviously; but in iOS level - i just cant; maybe iam doing smth wrong, but really i cant find out how make this happens. when android is 2taps).
Iam very very doesn want to stay with google, but sadly seems forced to buy one more phone with android (obviosly samsung, because ofcourse no any China's brands no an option, obviously; sams so can provide own apps-services ecosystem for fine user exp, and not even adding G acc to phone; but anyway it will be somehow related to G and some its services, sadly; rooted android variants iam not considering because sec issues (has tried a lot, +/- interesting, but no any serious usage with any money/highprivacy data accs and services ofcourse woul be not; no, you ofc CAN make it all, with some not tryhards; but thats 10/10 stupid so only idiot would be do so).
Very awesome news for me was that iOS blockchain wallets apps finally can do needed things that only android version can in near past; but still i has an a lack of needs of some apps and things that i cant obtain in iOS, iam forced to has an one more android phone :(
Yes there is a lot of difference in deep small nuances in iOS and A (iam doesnt like a lot of things in iOS, but mostly it would be personal dacades maked online habits and exps; so that no anyhow could be an a compliance, and i had found few very-very decent iOS things that totally doesnt exist in A world, so iam keep iphone and seems maybe needed buy one more - because of sims and accs in some things), but iam very very dissapoint in that one so obviously and needing lack of things.
And MAIN point: Iam want it Native and 1st party from Apple, no talking about 3rd partys devs apps and extensions and options).
