- adhipg 14y agoJust curious, what are the issues that you have with Chrome that you want to switch back?
- strmpnk 14y agoI don't know about others but I really like the two-finger double-tap to zoom (pinching too) and the reader mode (and reading list if you use multiple devices with safari). These things seem standard on mobiles but still haven't made it to all desktop browsers. Spotlight history integration is also useful as well, though it could be improved. Otherwise, it's fast enough and supports most new features just fine. Developer tools support isn't quite as nice as Chrome but I usually use Safari until I need Chrome or hit a site that needs flash (since I don't have it installed on my system).
- pclark 14y agoI have consistently found Chrome to never quite feel "Mac like."
- rbreve 14y agotry chrome for iOS you can share your open tabs with all your devices
- strmpnk 14y agoI usually used reading list to share across devices but it did take far too long for Apple to add the live tabs feature. Definitely a feature I wish I had up until developer betas awhile ago.

- gpmcadam 14y agoThis is a nice feature. But if this is the only thing keeping someone using Chrome over Safari, then fear not: iOS6 is introducing this feature for Safari in the coming Autumn. http://www.apple.com/ios/ios6/#safari http://www.apple.com/ios/ios6/#safari
