Dolphin iPhone v3.5: Makes (almost) Everything a Little Bit Easier

IMG_0191-e1328599538520-300x200

Dolphin is proud to present v3.5 for iPhone, now available on the App Store. Dolphin v3.5 for iPhone comes equipped with full screen mode and screen orientation lock to give you the best browsing experience.

Now we can’t help hang that shelf in the garage for you but we do what we can. And with this update Dolphin brings a couple of key improvements that makes everything just plain easier.

1.  Full Screen Mode

Sometimes you just need to see the big picture. While Dolphin tabs are functional they can take up prime real estate so now with a simple click of a button (on your right sidebar) you expand to full screen mode.

2. Screen Orientation Lock

Never again have to deal with the constantly adjusting screen nor perching half way up on an arm while browsing in bed. Now with screen orientation lock, you can lock the screen no matter which way you are lying, sitting or hanging.


In honor of this new feature, we have coined the new meme sweeping the nation … blanking. We know you love planking but have you tried blanking? Browsing while planking?
3. Dolphin Connect gets Friendlier

Now you can sync your favorite bookmarks across all your devices by logging in with Facebook. Tiny keypads on Smartphones can be tough, so now Dolphin Connect lets you login with your Facebook or Google ID.

As always, we love hearing from you! So don’t hesitate to contact us at support@dolphin-browser.com or join our community on Facebook and Twitter.

    An amazing blogpost, I just given this onto a friend who was doing a little research on that. And he in fact bought me dinner because I found it for him.

    Magnificent beat ! I wish to apprentice whilst you amend your website, how can i subscribe for a blog web site? The account helped me a appropriate deal. I were a little bit acquainted of this your broadcast provided vivid transparent idea

    Hi, well I’d just like to suggest a feature :) . Dolphin’s pretty much the browser I’m looking for because of its gesture features and its ability to play youtube vids or at least access mobile youtube and actually be able to change the video quality (connection’s crap so, yeah I’m grateful for this feature ._.). The only thing that’s missing is he “saved pages” feature like that of Opera Mini’s, as I said, connection’s crap and 3G is non existent in here, so I’d like to access webpages that I’ve saved beforehand like fanfictions or GameFAQs, etc,

  4. Hiten says:

    Hi, the new update added the space bar, but removed the url keyboard!!

    Could you please, please bring back the old feature of having two keyboard tabs: URL/Default? This makes the browser much more functional.

  5. Tym says:

    It varies between a few hours or a few minutes. Sometimes they disappear and sometimes they don’t. But it happens several times a day. I suspect it’s to do with low memory.
    I’m on iPhone 4 with latest iOS version.

  6. Andre says:

    Please bring back the option to switch between URL and default keyboard ASAP! Also, do away with the idiot who proposed to remove it as an “enhancement”!!

  7. Katz says:

    please Bring the URL/search query spacebar…

  8. Hiten says:

    Eagerly awaiting the return of the URL/default keyboards for the iPhone version. Please bring them back ASAP! The search bar is completely useless without it……

  9. Andrew says:

    Yikes. I love the full screen mode and other layout improvements, but the elimination of the standard keyboard can only have been a mistake. Please resolve so I can restore dolphin to the position of primary browser on my iPhone. Thanks!

  10. Tym says:

    Any way to make it not to keep losing opened tabs while in the background? I thought in ios5 state of apps was supposed to be saved. But for some reason dolphin will often lose the tabs I had open.

  11. Matt says:

    I just wanted to thank Dolphin for making “EVERYTHING easier” by removing the space bar. What an ironic post. Please fire whoever made that idiotic decision.

  12. Vincent says:

    I have to fallback with Safari until dolphin get spacebar back.

  13. Solange says:

    Definitely was surprised that I couldnt create a gesture to toggle full screen mode, but glad to hear its being considered!

  14. JB Bryant says:

    I’d like to see an extension for chrome bookmarks to sync. Or at least an import using the open in action if the HTML bookmarks file is opened on the iPhone. Until then, back to grazing browser. Still waiting on JavaScript as well. I need to be able to use a mobilizer like readability or Instapaper.

  15. Ben says:

    What happened to the space key when trying to search in the bar?

  16. Jay says:

    Great app. Please bring back the URL/Default keyboard toggle!

  17. Mp says:

    Where did the default keyboard go? This feature was pretty cool but now it’s gone! Aren’t updates supposed to IMPROVE software? What’s the reason for removing this option???

  18. Jesse says:

    Dont necessarily new the tab for the default keyboard back, just some way to use the space bar. Otherwise the smart address bar isn’t really that helpful. Thanks!

  19. Hermann says:

    How are we supposed to make a two or more terms search from the navigation bar with no space key? Is there another method?

    Thx for the fullscreen feature.

  20. César says:

    v 3.5 is good.
    but…

    when will support for bookmarklets?.
    Needed: fullscreen option in Create Gesture.

  21. P Gallagher says:

    Same here for the search feature! Looking forward to the fix!

  22. Brandon says:

    Yeah, I found this through googling and trying to find out what happened to the second keyboard layout. It’s impossible to search without going to Google first (not nice on 200 MB Plan). Thanks.

  23. Jesse says:

    What happened to the default keyboard tab????

    • Alex Molloy says:

      Hey everyone thank you for your comments. We hear you and while we wanted to try out a sleek new design, your response has moved us to put this feature back as soon as possible. Stay tuned for an update soon!

  24. Andrew says:

    Third for that URL/Normal keyboard.

  25. Andy says:

    Bring back the URL/search query spacebar! I’m crushed that this feature got removed.

  26. Bob says:

    Latest update for me removed the Space key on the keyboard when I want to type in the URL box.

  27. Dolphin Browser says:

    Hi Hiten.
    I will direct this to relevant member team and we’ll see whether we can cooperate it into Dolphin.

  28. Dolphin Browser says:

    Thanks, Tym.
    We will try to improve Dolphin for iPhone better.
