Before I get started, I must admit: I am a chrome user when I plugin to my desktop. There are such a huge number of web-browsers out there, and I simply have removed myself from the browser update and review pipeline. Back when the iPhone first came out, I was pretty content with the just using Safari. As a Mac User at the time, it was easy for me to transition to the Safari browser on the iPhone. A few years went by, I tried Opera (and un-installed it), and then Chrome came to the iPhone and I almost cried.
Now I have reached a point where the iOS Chrome browser is being eclipsed by other third party software. I will always use Chrome on my Mac and PC computers, but when I am on the go with my iPad and iPhone, I find that both Safari and Chrome are lacking in functionality. As an avid Evernote User, and someone who is always looking for apps with Educational Connotations, I decided to try Dolphin, the Evernote integrated web-browser. It only took a few minutes for me to latch on to the Functionality that Dolphin has to offer.
When you factor in Desktop Chrome Extensions to sync Bookmarks, and send websites to your phone, you come away with a great productivity app. You can see those amazing features in the video review below.

Summary
As a browser, Dolphin opened my eyes. This application allows me to quickly and easily take content from my Desktop to my Mobile Devices. With the “Send to Desktop” features, I can send the sites I am using on my iPad directly to my desktops. With Bookmark Synchronization, I have all of the features I could want. As an added bonus, the Wifi broadcast option is nice in classrooms with iPads. It allows you to share your website with all of your students on the fly, rather than having them search. A great tool for any Educator, made even better with the integration of Evernote. This is my favorite browser for any iOS Device, and it will stay on my iPad for a good long time.
