## Description

Desktop Browser Zoomable provides a true desktop web experience by rendering sites on a large, resizable screen. Zoom freely between 1x and 3x, switch between portrait and landscape, use full-screen mode, save favorites, and enjoy Pro features like multiple tabs and customizable themes. It’s fast, lightweight, and designed to work with many sites, making it especially useful for developers testing tools like App Store Connect or Firebase Console.

Privacy-first by design, the app collects only anonymous diagnostic data unrelated to browsing, and you can opt out. Designed for everyone, it shines when you need reliable screen scaling for desktop web tasks while preserving your privacy.

## Review summary

Users like the app's speed and ability to render many sites in desktop view, especially on iPad. However, reliability is hampered by site compatibility issues, nonfunctional printing/downloading, stability problems (crashes and constant refreshing), intrusive ads, and missing features (keyboard shortcuts, extensions, tab placement, default browser options, and full-screen enhancements). Overall, it’s a useful desktop-like browsing tool but current issues affect consistency and UX.

### Pros

- Fast performance with desktop-mode rendering most of the time.
- Helpful for iPad users needing to view desktop sites.
- Delivers desktop-like viewing without paywalls or extra hurdles.
- Generally useful as a lightweight option for accessing desktop versions of sites.

### Cons

- Inconsistent site compatibility; some sites (e.g., Google Docs) are not supported or render poorly.
- Printing and downloading often do not work as expected (print dialog appears but nothing prints).
- Stability issues: crashes, constant refreshing, and lag.
- Annoying or inappropriate ads/popups disrupt usage.
- Missing expected features: keyboard shortcuts, extension support, bottom tab bar, ability to set as default browser, and true fullscreen behavior over the notification bar.
