The v1.4.0 update has just arrived on the Psylo browser. It introduced a design update, improved privacy protections, support for the iPhone Duo, and more. The update also makes regular browsing more convenient with the tab restoration feature.

The official Release Notes were posted in a blog, and a screenshot has been attached below for your reference. The screenshot only shows some of the changes, since the actual list is rather long.

Expectedly, the v1.4.0 update showed up immediately on the App Store.

Here are some important features/changes that you’ll actually notice:

  1. Multiple tabs in every silo: Users can now open and manage multiple tabs within individual silos. For those unaware, a silo is basically an isolated browsing environment. It’s similar to Profiles, Workspaces, and Containers. Website data, cookie information, etc aren’t shared between different profiles. Similar to that, you can have different silos for work, entertainment, and more.

  2. New tab: A new tab grid displays all of the open tabs at a glance. Users can reorder, copy, share, or close tabs directly.
  3. Automatic tab restoration: Psylo now restores previously open tabs after restarting the app. The feature is enabled by default.

  4. More Silo improvements: Temporary browsing sessions now have their own tab grid. Users can also convert a Quick Silo into a regular silo. While it retains tabs and sign-ins, temporary website data is not.
  5. iPhone Duo: The browser’s interface now adapts to the iPhone Duo. The browser’s controls shift places when unfolded. Furthermore, iPad users also get improved multitasking.
  6. Improved anti-fingerprinting technology.
  7. More convenient browsing controls: Users can search webpages for specific text, open pages directly in Safari or other installed browsers, and access navigation controls more easily through a reorganized menu.
  8. Redesigned settings: Psylo now lets users configure default proxy settings, appearance, storage, and privacy protections for new silos.

PiunikaWeb’s Take

Psylo v1.4.0 is actually a meaningful feature update. There are plenty of tweaks to the settings that make the experience of browsing through Psylo more convenient and straightforward. The obvious usability limitations have been addressed, especially the ones that are multitasking-related. While this update consisted of features, the previous one was focused on making the browser smoother and faster, with improved overall performance.
