Dolphin Browser version 2.0 was released for iOS and is now available for download on the App Store. Similar to the company's recent Android update, the mobile browser for the iPhone and iPad now features Dolphin Connect, which enables the user to sync all of their important bookmarks across platforms. For instance, iPad owners who have an Android mobile phone are good to go with the latest update. This should make for a consistent user experience regardless of mobile platform.

The app's Webzine received several enhancements, including bringing 16 of the most popular channels directly to the home screen for easy, one-touch access. The company also announced that they've surpassed 10 million users and in celebration are giving away a trip to Disneyland for one lucky Dolphin user. This also includes a guest. The prize is five nights at the Walt Disney Dolphin Hotel in Orlando, Florida. Find out all the details on the company's blog.

There's a new web browser vying for everyone's attention and rightfully so considering Dolphin Browser's previous success on the Android platform. 8 million Android users can't be wrong after all.

Having tried out Dolphin Browser for a time, the app feels like a much more fully fledged browser than Safari. There's 'proper' tabbed browsing just like on a desktop, a bookmark folder that's as easy to access as on any PC or Mac. Auto-completing of URLs is fast and efficient too. For even faster access, a speed dial system ensures that users can consult their favorite websites at the tap of one button for maximum ease.

The real killer feature is the Gestures system though. This allows users to draw a sign or add their own gestures so that websites respond accordingly. For example, drawing a v gesture scrolls the site to the bottom of the page. Users can create their own gestures too such as an F for Facebook or M for their webmail.

As another time saver, social networking sharing facilities have been added on screen at all times making it simple to share content with others.

Give Dolphin Browser a shot today. In just my brief time of using it, I've found it to be a real timesaver once set up, with some very useful features.
