Does anyone know of a web browser on iOS that allows for zooming with a double tap and hold with dragging. Similar to how zooming is handled on maps. The only thing I’ve found was Firefox on android but I haven’t found anything on iOS yet. I wouldn’t figure this to be a limitation of WebKit but I could be wrong.
iOS has an accessibility feature where you can tap two times with three fingers and zoom the screen. If you hold on the second tap and upward it will zoom in a custom amount. Sliding down zooms back out. Would that work? It would be independent of all web browsers.
I saw that mentioned online when trying to research for this but three fingers don’t really work for one handed browsing lol
I didn’t know about this until now, but there is a feature called “back tap.“ It allows you to trigger specific actions by tappingeither two times or three times on the back of the iPhone. You can set this to zoom in or out.
This is where ChatGPT says to go:
- Go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Back Tap.
- Choose Double Tap or Triple Tap, then select the action you want to assign.
Ah forgot about that feature. Thanks for the heads up that might work well!

Awesome browser
I’ve tried it a while ago but it didn’t have the drag zoom function at the time unfortunately. Pretty nice to be able to have extensions other than that despite the WebKit restrictions.
Try iCab. It has tons of functions and settings.
