Popular iOS Web Browser iCab Mobile Hails Drawing Gestures And More In 7.0 Update

The so-called "Internet Taxi for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad" has just received a huge update. I'm referring to the popular iOS Web browser iCab Mobile, which has just been updated to version 7.0. The most notable addition brought by iCab Mobile is the new drawing gestures feature. This feature lets you enhance your browsing experience with gestures not only for opening websites but also for triggering actions. Check out the demo video below to learn more about drawing gestures. As demonstrated in the video, you can draw, say, an A to open the Apple website, a G to open Google, an E to open eBay, a W to open Wikipedia, and so on. What's more interesting is that you can also draw special shapes to trigger actions. These include an envelope shape to open the mail window and a rectangle to toggle the full-screen mode. The new version of iCab Mobile also offers 1Password integration. Provided 1Password is installed on your device, iCab Mobile can launch 1Password and automatically search for passwords for the currently displayed website.
