Icab Browser Download Youtube
Safari for iOS is one of my favorite browsers, simply because it's so fast. The Download center in iCab is terrific little holding place for all sorts of data. To lock it while giving my kid access to YouTube, PBS and Disney.
- I've used it on my various machines, legacy and otherwise, for over a decade. It benefits from their being a stable version for practically every flavor of Mac: 2.9.9 is the best browser you can get for a 68k Mac, hands down, and 3.0.5 is the best you can find.
- ICab Mobile is a web browser for the iOS. It provides many unique and useful features you won't find in other iPhone browsers. APPLE WATCH: The Watch App is a remote control for iCab Mobile, so you can navigate, zoom, scroll, open bookmarks, links, the homepage, switch tabs or sitch on/off the fullscreen mode.

@IMNSThere’re no problems at all in downloading daily motion videos on my devices. Which device do you use and which version of the iOS? And which “Browser ID” have you configured in iCab Mobile?In case you’re using an iPhone, you need to configure the Browser ID to “Safari (iPad)”, because you do not want to get the stripped-down mobile version of this page.
As usually this stripped-down version of the site for phones is very limited in features as well and does not allow the download of videos. But even on the iPhone this should work if iCab identifies itself as iPad browser. Yeah, I was able to download your videos without any issues. I also tried some other apps and while they seemed to download all daily motion videos (even streaming ones), they didn’t download them as mp4 files. Instead it was a folder consisting tens of smaller files which worked only inside the app but no way to transfer them to other apps.
So not much use for me. Also tried some apps on android (media clip for example) and they seemed to download these streaming videos in mp4 format without any issue. Guess I’ll just download them on android and then forward them to my ipad for now.Btw, icab needs a facelift now. Seems a bit ancient in iOS 7 🙂. @SiegfriedThe clipconverter module is just a convenient way to open the clip converter website and automatically pass the URL of the current web site to the clip converter service.

But the problem is that the clip converter page has started to provide a mobile version of the page in the past, and this was causing an issue with the old version of the module that comes with iCab Mobile 6.8. When the clipconverter page detects a mobile browser, it redirects to the mobile version of the site and then forgets about the URL of the video page. Therefore, newer versions of iCab Mobile and the Clipconverter module do change the Browser ID setting for the clipconverter module, so the clip converter page will no longer assume that iCab is a mobile browser, and this will fix the issue.The clip converter site is a third party service, which is not related to iCab. So I can not guarantee that it will always work as expected. If you want to check if clipconverter would work for you as an alternative to the native download capability for youtube, you could configure the Browser ID for“.clipconverter.cc/.
to “Safari (Mac)”. This way the clipcponverter page should no longer switch to the mobile site and no longer lose the URL of the video page.In case the clip converter works for you, you might be able to update iCab Mobile as well (maybe keep a copy of the old version of iCab Mobile, in case you want to have the option to go back). Hi Alexander.I never used the YouTube downloading feature myself, so its demise is no big deal. However I resent Apple’s transparent attempts to cripple any 3rd party apps which threaten the dominance of their own crappy software.Would you ever consider releasing two versions of iCabMobile? You could have the Apple censored version on the App Store and an ‘iCab, the director’s cut’ version available on Cydia for jailbroken iGadgets.
I reckon a pretty big percentage of the people who can be bothered to install an alternative browser are probably running jailbroken anyway, so they can use ‘Browser Changer’ to make that browser the default. I’ve been using iCab since Preview 1.9 on Mac OS 8.6 back in 2000, and I bought it for my iPad 1 as soon as I saw it was available. I really appreciate it not being “dumbed down” like Apple has done with iOS Safari and increasingly with Mac OS X. Chrome and Firefox desktop are now hiding the “but Safari on iOS 7 now does something even worse and hides everything in a URL except the domain name (unless you touch).
Icab Mobile Web Browser
So please don’t dumb down iCab! I have an Android phone and I like it because there are not as many restrictions as with iOS. At least I can choose my default browser. Apple’s hardware is nice, but the growing number of restrictions, combined with the dumbing down, is making me seriously think about moving away from Apple software on all devices. Maybe it’s time for iCab to be on Android and Linux? П™‚ Thanks again for your excellent work.
Hello Alexander!I’m thinking of buying Your browser which seems to be an ingenious work regarding the opinions.I’m not yet fully concerned to buy it because I’ve read that many users are waiting for an update because they seem to have problems on iPads Air (I also have one) and also wish to have an ios7 look.The last update was several months ago and I’m wondering if I can buy this app or if it is an app which isn’t developed any more?Will there be an update which will solve the mentioned problems by users?Thanks! @SebastianI’ve just finished the new iCab Mobile 8 release. It took a little bit longer because iCab Mobile is an extremely large and complex App, and so switching to iOS 7 was some more work than it would be when updating a “normal” App.Right now I’m facing a bug in Apple’s App submission process, which prevents that I can submit the update to the AppStore. This bug is triggered by all Apps which use a certain new framework of iOS 7 but which are built to still run under iOS 5/6 as well.Hopefully Apple will have a solution or a fix for this. If I don’t get an answer or solution from Apple until this weekend, I’ll remove the support for iOS 5/6 for now and submit the App for iOS 7 only. Then I have to wait for Apple to fix this bug before I can support iOS 5/6 again.
My MacBook has its limitations. I can still use an older version of Firefox (48.0.2), but things are getting slow. I have used iCab in the past and want to give it another shot. I understand that there are connection problems–actually, I ran into them when I switched to Firefox a while ago. I am wondering, are there features or defaults in iCab that will run in os 10.6.8 that can be or should be turned off and still allow safe connections? Or alternatively, are there websites that I should just avoid to stop iCab from hanging? I apologize for posting in this particular topic as the subject is unrelated but did so as it is first alphabetically.
I would have rather used an email form on the site to communicate directly with the developer in an anonymous manner but the site does not offer such a web form. Please be advised that iCab (which has been a great browser for many years) has a security concern of highest order. For those who use iCab for security purposes, please know that it reveals the actual IP address of the browsing device regardless of VPN or Proxy configuration. I see no means in settings to disable this. This issue at hand is WebRTC and iCab implementation of it. For a self-check, please visit and if you are connecting via VPN or Proxy, your true IP will be revealed under WebRTC section. I hope the developer will review this concern and give control options in settings that will allow for remediation of this issue.
Kind Regards, iCab User. Searching the iCab.de site revealed no hits related to security or WebRTC. Thank you for an amazingly fast response. The above issue (leak) does not occur on iOS 11.3 for Safari, Firefox, and FireFox Focus. Ghostery fails and as mentioned earlier, iCab allows a leak. I have not checked additional browsers at this point but will do so soon.
I checked (a short time ago) and 5.8.3 for Mac also allows the leak. Anything you can do to provide a workaround would be great. I nearly exclusively use iCab and at this point, there is a hesitancy to do so. Thank you for your continued support for the Apple Platform when others have walked away. Understood I have checked additional apps and you are certainly right as there are a few that leak and some that do not. I appreciate you pointing this out as it gives me the tools to better securely use the web and not be a targeted user.In my earlier post, it mentions using iCab nearly exclusively and if you can provide a fix or maybe a better term is modification that allows for better securing iCab, it would be tremendously valuable and I would gladly pay for an upgrade.
The issue can be mitigated via firewall rules on a local area network but that does not help at all with true mobile connections.With WebRTC leaks having been an issue for some time now, it is pretty troubling that the iOS platform continues to carry forward a vulnerability such as this. What does this say for the security of platform!
Thank you again, for your response. If Apple is giving so much difficulty then simply stop distributing apps through them.
You have a website for iCab for the Mac, so distribute it from there instead. What gives Apple the right to force developers to release software only through them and not through any other channels? I am sure this practice must violate the laws of at least a few countries since it gives sole distribution rights to Apple for apps they don’t own and didn’t develop. The right to choose how to distribute their work should remain with the developer and not hijacked by Apple.
Locking their devices into a single method of software distribution that they happen to own grants them a monopoly that they can easily abuse and that should be challenged in the courts.
