Like every month, we are back with five new iOS apps for you to try in the month of September 2020. We have surfed through thousands of apps on the App Store so that you don’t have to.

This shortlist contains iOS apps that are designed to not only empower your creativity and strengthen mental abilities but also provide internet privacy and device personalization options for better user experience. Be sure to check them out below one-by-one.

1. Anchor

If you are interested in starting your own podcast, Anchor is an excellent platform for you to unleash your creativity. It offers podcast creation tools for the public, along with free hosting and distribution tools for sharing your voice across preferred listening platforms.

With the Anchor app on your iPhone/iPad, you can record audio from anywhere you want. It has a built-in episode builder that lets you edit and visualize audio segments on the go. You can also add transitions, sound effects, and background tracks from Anchor’s royalty-free audio library. In addition, you can even add voice messages from your listeners. The app lets you record podcasts remotely with up to four people, and it doesn’t matter how far or close they are from you.

Alongside podcast creation tools, Anchor also offers a cover art generator for your podcast. Furthermore, it can detect external microphones, and you can import your voice recordings to the app as well.

One of the best things about Anchor is its analytic dashboard, which lets you track listener counts from several podcast platforms and offers a detailed view of your listener’s demographics. You can even apply for Anchor sponsorships and monetize your podcast, no matter what your audience size is.

Anchor offers unlimited storage for your podcast episodes. There are no hidden charges, and you won’t be asked to pay any monthly fees. You can also choose to distribute your podcasts on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and additional podcast apps directly from the Anchor app.

The Anchor app is also free to download on the App Store. Visit anchor.fm to learn more about Anchor’s features.

2. Onion Browser

Onion Browser is an open-source web browser based on the Tor Project. It encrypts your web activities and reroutes your network traffic through the Tor Network, which is basically a chain of private servers across the globe. It’s pretty much impossible for anyone to spy on your web searches or track your real location on the Tor Network, making you anonymous on the web.

If you care about your safety and privacy on the web, then consider using Onion Browser. It not only blocks trackers on different websites but also secures your browsing history from your internet service provider and public Wi-Fi hotspots. It also forces webpages to load in HTTPS, providing a more secure browsing experience. With Onion Browser, you can also access .onion websites, which you can’t otherwise access from regular web browsers, such as Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome.

Onion Browser works almost like a VPN, albeit with better security and encryption protocols in place. It automatically clears tabs and cookies once you close the browser, as well as blocks malicious scripts on untrusted websites. You can also change the security levels for individual websites, plus manually configure the bridge for the Tor Circuit.

Since your network traffic is encrypted and then relayed through the Tor Network, your web browsing experience is prone to suffer from slowdowns when using Onion Browser. However, it ensures that your privacy on the web is uncompromised. By default, the browser also blocks media streams to safeguard your location.

Similar to the Onion Browser on other platforms, you can download it for free on your iOS device. The browser has in-app purchases, but it only is for supporting the developer. All of Onion Browser’s privacy-enhancing features can be used for free.
