Being an Apple fan and brand loyal user of Apple, I have never felt the need of using any other web browser than Apple Safari. But you people have constantly asked me to share my views with you about the rivals of Safari. One thing that I liked about all the web browsers is that they are available totally free of cost.

Anyways I was sharing my personal experiences. I have never used any browser other than Safari till I have received the request from you guy. Consequently, I have started looking for different web-browser as I have to finalize the one.

Have you ever thought that why do you need a web browser?

How many websites do you visit a single day? How many Social media accounts do you have?

• 3 Top 8 Best Mac Browser by Steve Sadiq

You name it and you will have it. There is an app for almost all the major sites that we use in our daily life. Yet the web-browsers are extremely important for us. Why?

Open Source Browser For Android

The question is very basic and of pivotal importance. This info is for IT professionals and other technical people. The site structure for the mobile and desktop/laptop user is quite different. The mobile app can offer you very limited info or services.

All the info and services main database lies in the website. All the info is extracted from the website. We just take the example of the Amazon. If you look at the Amazon website in a web-browser it seems like a giant. A huge database of product. Shows you lots and lots of information on the screen in a short time.

While using it on an app, you will not have such vast info. The apps are built for convenience. As everything is available on mobile, on the go. People want convenience in their lives.

Just imagine, how much time it takes to pay your utility bills on cell phones. You pull Your cellphone out of your pocket and open the banking app and in just 3-4 taps, you are done. WoW.

Importance of Web Browser for Mac

The web browser is a must to have software if you are using a MacBook. It doesn’t matter to which profession do you belong. The Web browser is must to have. There are multiple and multiple things that are not possible on an app, for then you definitely need a browser. If you are a blogger like me, you will have to write your blogs. How can you do that? If you are a student and you have to make a presentation, you will need to collect data from the net.

There are billions and of Websites available on the internet. For every single website don’t find the app. That site can only be accessed using a web browser. So I would say that I personally recommend using a web browser instead of an app. Rest I leave the choice on you. You know the better for yourself. You have to choose your own.

I prefer the Web-browser over App.
