100% on-device AES-256 bookmarks No account · no analytics

Your browser, your device, only.

ZeroTrace is an iOS browser that blocks ads and trackers on-device, translates any page with Apple Intelligence, encrypts your bookmarks behind a password only you know — and never sends a single byte to a server.

Why ZeroTrace?

A private browser for your iPhone — designed for people who want a fast, clean web without their reading history, bookmarks, or translations being uploaded to anyone.

🛡️

On-device ad & tracker blocking

Three built-in WKContentRuleList rule sets — strict, balanced, permissive — compiled by the Apple content blocker engine. No remote filter list downloads, no telemetry, no breakage.

🌐

Offline translation

Select any text on any page and translate it locally with Apple's Translation framework. Forty-one languages. Zero bytes leave your iPhone.

🔐

Encrypted bookmarks vault

All bookmarks live inside an AES-256-GCM vault. Your password is the only key. We do not run a server that could read or reset it.

⚙️

Per-site shields

Some sites need scripts, some need ironclad blocking. Tap the shield icon to switch between Strict / Balanced / Permissive for any site — instantly.

📖

Reader & find-in-page

Long article? Tap Reader for a clean, distraction-free view. Need to find something? Built-in find-in-page highlights every match as you type.

📝

Encrypted notes

Highlight text on any page and save it to an encrypted notes vault. Same AES-256-GCM as bookmarks — same password or a separate one.

Common questions

Does ZeroTrace upload anything?

No. No analytics, no telemetry, no remote filter lists, no crash reports sent to our servers. The only network requests your browser makes are to the websites you visit.

Where is my data stored?

On your iPhone. Bookmarks and notes are sealed inside an AES-256-GCM vault encrypted with a key derived from your password via HKDF-SHA256. We do not run a server that holds your data.

What if I forget my password?

We cannot recover it — by design. This is the trade-off for true zero-knowledge encryption. Choose a password you will remember, or write it down somewhere safe.
