Description
Sidefari is a simple web browser that is designed to act as a companion to Safari.
Sidefari uses a feature built into iOS called the Safari View Controller to display a "mini" version of Safari that shares many features of the full Safari app, like content blockers. How can this help you?
In iOS 10.2 and newer:
Sidefari features an extension called "Open Modally in Safari" that will enable you to bring a Safari-based window inside of other apps that enable ways to share website URLs. Why would you want to do this? Perhaps you prefer the convenience of having some Safari features inside the same app, or if you're conscious about your privacy perhaps you don't want to use the custom web browser many apps have.
In iOS 9:
When on an iPad, besides the "Open Modally in Safari" extension mentioned above, Sidefari shows as an extra Safari-based browser on the side of your screen when summoned to the side thanks to multi-tasking. Now you'll be able to have two websites simultaneously on the same screen.
** Please note that compatible iPads include the iPad Air 2, iPad mini 4, and iPad Pro, or greater.
Please refer to the "How to set up the extension" inside the app to learn more about how to enable Sidefari.

Ratings and Reviews
Excellent addition to Safari
This is an excellent addtion to Safari when used in Split View mode. It's not trying to be a complete browser so there are some missing features that a regular browser would have like bookmarks, tabs and an editable URL bar. This apps simple job is to provide access to the Safari View Controller in another window so you can use the features of Safari like access to the Nitro JS engine, content blockers and your saved passwords.
If all you need is a 2nd window to push a link, this is the best option you can get.
This app delivery the goods!
An excellent app that brings to multitasked browsing on iOS 9 what Apple should have done from the very beginning. If you are a Safari user - get this. 5/5
Very clever
Impressive bit of lateral thinking. The use increases all the time. Well done.
