I left a comfy UX/Eng job at Google to build Quiche Browser and an indie brand around my love for the Web, minimalism, and questionable naming.

What a lovely surprise to discover my little indie web browser so tastefully featured on a YouTube channel about minimalism and aesthetics in tech.
(Both very much my thing, and what I try to put into Quiche Browser.)

“Insane but actually really lovely” could be a fitting description of my app, and probably of the whole idea of trying to build a sustainable business around a web browser with a silly name.
(Thanks for the SO @davidpierce.xyz 🙏)

Wow, wow! Thanks so much for the shout-out, the super kind words, and your generous support. I’m really touched 😌
Reasonably sized phones are unfortunately an extinct species, but Comfort Mode helps bring some reachability back.

Comfort Mode and customization in the Quiche mobile browser are life-changing for me and my AVERAGE SIZED FEMALE HANDS. Independent designer, no crypto bs, built-in adblock, a very responsive designer, looks great and I think I finally found the browser I’ve been looking for. @quiche.industries

Swipe-to-close gestures now available in Quiche Browser!
I’ve already received some positive feedback so hopefully they feel so good you’ll open 100 random tabs just for the fun of swipe-closing them.
(I just did.)

Quiche Browser vs. Chrome vs. Edge vs. Firefox:
Only Quiche Browser doesn’t throw a full-screen white flash in your face when opening a web page from another app.

Swipe-to-delete gestures are finally coming to Quiche Browser 🎉
Still more tweaking to do around the design, animation, and timing until everything feels right. I’m pretty obsessive about these details, but shipping great gestures is my big goal this year!

Great read: a plea to app developers in favor of customizable UI in software, using Quiche Browser as an example 🌞
• Why customization doesn’t add more complexity.
• Why it’s not an excuse for not providing good defaults.
• Why it matters even more since iOS 26.

i honestly really love quiche - i didn't think it was possible to really enjoy a mobile browser but the built-in ad blocker alone has completely changed my life. no one should have to raw dog the internet on their phone just because they don't have access to a VPN/proxy
I’m dead set on the direction for Quiche Browser in 2026:
Doubling down on the qualities people keep highlighting in App Store reviews, the ones that set it apart in a world full of browsers that all look the same. Minimalism, heart, polish, lightness.
This feels like the only way forward.

Today’s Quiche Browser update finally fixes the crash when using Find on Page in the Classic theme.
With the last critical iOS 26 issue now out of the way, I can finally move on to the next big feature. It’s a significant effort to ship it the way I imagine it, so thanks for your patience 🙇♂️

Best browser I’ve used so far. Do yourself a favour and try it!
Quiche Browser’s default favorites reflect the web I like: good design, good writing, good content. And people seem to notice ❤︎
In other browsers, default favorites are companies paying to be included (Amazon, Expedia...), or garbage like Facebook or X. I can’t think of a worse first impression.

While designing Comfort Mode in Quiche Browser, a tricky problem I had to be thoughtful about:
When you hold your phone in your right hand, favorite icons in the top left are harder to reach than ones on the right.
Search suggestions don’t have this problem since they span the width of the screen.

My indie iOS browser just got featured in a print magazine for the first time!
If you’re in the UK, you might want to grab the latest issue of MacFormat, in case it becomes a collector item when I get world famous.

Yesterday, Quiche ᴘʟᴜꜱ passed 450 members for the first time… And on my birthday!
A 350% increase in a year. It still feels unreal to me that so many of you are helping fund the development of Quiche Browser.
Thank you all so very much 🙏🙇♂️🤍🩶🖤

Quiche Browser’s Comfort Mode lets you place tabs, favorites, and search suggestions exactly where they feel most comfortable, no matter your phone size or how far your thumb can stretch.
(Designing this simple setup took me longer than building the feature itself 🤦♂️)

Just shipped in Quiche Browser:
Comfort Mode!
It moves tabs, favorites, and search suggestions slightly lower, making them easier to reach when using your phone with one hand.
The bigger your iPhone, the more you may like this.

Got a DM about Quiche Browser and the recent WebKit 0-days, so a quick clarification just in case:
No need to worry ☺️
Like all third-party iOS browsers, Quiche Browser is covered as long as you’ve updated to iOS 18.7.3 or iOS 26.2.
