- Two researchers in privacy have just unveiled a unique private web browser
- Psylo offers anti-retraitable and anti-deigm functionalities that promise to go beyond VPN protection
- Psylo is currently available on iOS and iPados only
Two researchers in a privacy have just unveiled a “new type of private web browser” which promises to solve a problem afflicting the industry – the fingerprint of the browser.
Talal Haj Bakry and Tommy Mysk built psylos with an innovative isolated tab system powered by a proxy network. This means that each tab is open in its own “silo”, with isolated storage, cookies and even its own IP address.
Psylos anti-retirement and anti-tension characteristics also promise to go far beyond the protection of the best VPN services. The application is currently available for iOS and iPados only.
Arrive where VPNs cannot
Recent research by Texas A & M University has revealed the first tangible proof that many websites use the fingerprint of the browser to follow people for online advertising purposes.
The fingerprints of the browser are a technique for following Internet users on applications and websites. He does this by collecting details on their devices and browsers to create a unique digital imprint.
More and more users have turned to virtual private networks (VPN) to minimize online surveillance. However, although a VPN can hide your real IP address, it cannot do the same for your device model, your system time zone, the language and other identifiable metadata bits. All these details, however, can always be sufficient to reveal the user’s identity.
Bakry and MySk have built this concept proof web page to show how your real location can be revealed by details such as system time zone settings, even when you are connected to a VPN
“It is a place where Psylo really shines. Not only each silo obtains a single IP address via our proxy network, but it also corresponds to the place and the time zone of its associated proxy server,” explains Bakry and MySk in a blog article.
How Psylo works
As mentioned above, Psylo works via a system in web silos, or isolated web sessions, which runs in a proxy network without log – the Private Mysk Private Network.
This means that each psylo tab becomes fully customizable and detached from each other, which makes you even more difficult to follow you the applications and websites you visit.
For example, you can configure a tab to connect to your X account with a Canadian IP, while configuring another for Instagram, connecting via Germany. Psylo will also automatically prove the language and time zone of the browser accordingly.
Currently, you can choose from more than 40 servers dotted in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan and the United States.
🚀🤘 Psylo Introduction: A new type of private browser 9 months of development, we are very excited to finally launch Psylo, a new type of private web browser for iOS and iPados.in Psylo, each tab is its own “silo” with isolated storage, cookies and even its own ip… pic.twitter.com/zvpxexJune 17, 2025
Not only, however. As MySk explains: “Each Psylo tab has its own blurred set of device properties to block fingerprints.”
Psylo also includes more common anti-dioigts measures, such as randomization on canvas, which you may already find in certain private web browsers as brave.
Overall, “the objective of any anti-tension system is to make the user’s fingerprint vague As possible, which makes it more difficult to follow them with precision, “said Bakry and MySk.
Psylo also promises a truly private and transparent experience with all the software developed and controlled internally, in parallel with a strict policy without software. The system does not require new users to create an account, but claims to follow only the subscription statutes, free from identifiable metadata.
How to get Psylo
After a successful beta launch last February, Psylo officially entered the market on June 17, 2025.
Psylo version 1.0.0 is now available in the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPad devices as a monthly or annual ability, with a free 3 -day trial offering full access to all features.
Although this is not yet a defined commitment, the developers also plan to publish an Android version if the iOS counterpart turns out to be successful.
Certainly an application that deserves to be tried if you are looking to limit your exposure to online data.
