Dolphin Debuts on the iPad

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - Sep 12, 2011) - Dolphin Browser, the most popular third party browser on Android and only gesture-based browser on iOS, today announced the launch of the Dolphin Browser for iPad v1.0, bringing its signature Gesture and Webzine features to iPad users around the world. The application is launching today at TechCrunch Disrupt in San Francisco and is available immediately in the Apple App Store worldwide for free.

Already well established on the Android platform with 9 million+ users, Dolphin recently released its first iPhone application, quickly becoming #1 in the Productivity section of the App Store and breaking the top 25 most popular free apps within 48 hours of launch. Now, Dolphin is coming to the iPad with its signature intuitive and customizable browsing experience.

"Using Dolphin on the iPad feels like a natural extension of the device," said Yongzhi Yang, CEO of MoboTap. "With an estimated 48 million iPads to be sold in 2011 (Gartner), we're excited to bring our popular Gesture and Webzine functions to such an innovative and revolutionary tool."

Features of Dolphin for iPad include:

Gesture Browsing
By drawing a "T" to bring up Twitter or a "F" for Facebook, iPad users can now train their very own Dolphin and create any Gesture they want.

Dolphin Webzine
With Dolphin Webzine, Dolphin brings the elegance of a magazine to website content. In Webzine, iPad users can access articles on their favorite website by scrolling down the page, or by swiping right to left. Then simply tap to open the full article in an elegant format. From Techcrunch to Cosmopolitan, Webzine brings elegance to reading on the web.

Speed Dial
Visit your favorite sites on the go with one touch. No need to type out long URLs on the iPad's keyboard -- simply input your favorite sites on Speed Dial and access them with one click.

Tabbed browsing
Dolphin was the first mobile browser to support multiple tabs. No need to toggle in and out of screens -- tabbed browsing lets you open and switch between pages with ease.

Left and Right SideBars
Dolphin removes the inconvenience of a small screen with multiple SideBars, enabling a larger, more comprehensive browsing experience. Swipe to the right and quickly launch the Tab Bar. Swipe to the left and browse your Bookmarks Bar, browsing history and folders.

Availability and Pricing
Dolphin Browser for iPad v1.0 is available via the Apple Store worldwide immediately. It is free to download and use.
