Enhancement: Add settings to MobileMiniBrowser

[Joeybologna88]

iPhone 12 mini - iOS 14.2.1 - Taurine
I've tried with both the .tipa and the deb. Clicking the settings icon only opens an empty context?/pop-up? Window and the only visible UI is an "x". The X does at least dismiss the window.
Don't know if settings menu has been implemented yet or is still WIP. Thought I'd mention it regardless.
PS. Awesome project. Period. For 4-5 years now I had wished this could somehow be implemented, but it is far beyond my knowledge base to put something like this together. Thank you for putting in the effort to bring this kind of backport in to life!!!

This is the 0.0.8 nightly 9 MobileMiniBrowser build, correct?

[Joeybologna88]

Correct. Specifically the version for iOS 14.

@Joeybologna88 Upstream MobileMiniBrowser does not in fact have any settings. Besides maybe customizing the start page URL, I can't think of what settings might actually be needed.

I was mostly asking out of curiosity, but if you're gonna ask, I'll think it over and get back to you on that!

Maybe a setting to make it the default browser so all redirects links shortcuts use it instead? Unless it should be handled by iOS.

@plia7 If iOS respects the default browser setting for this, that should be handled by iOS with the com.apple.developer.web-browser entitlement.

See https://developer.apple.com/documentation/Xcode/preparing-your-app-to-be-the-default-browser

Ok looks like Chrome third party
browser provides this option in settings:

Settings Default Browser

You can open links in Chrome automatically by making it your Default Browser App.

Follow the steps below:

1. Open Chrome Settings
2. Tap Default Browser App
3. Select Chrome

Open Chrome Settings link

There I can choose between Safari, Chrome or CyberKit.
I guess that's the only way to get to this menu since I don't think it exists natively on my iOS 14.4.1 settings.

Thanks.

I finally thought of a feature that would be nice to have available somehow... bookmarks.
Being that many websites seem to require full url instead of say, just Google.com instead of www.Google.com (maybe it even requires https://www.Google.com; can't remember). It would be nice to be able to navigate to regularly visited webpages without having to type out entire url every single time.

I had another idea or two
In mind that are currently eluding me at the moment. If they come back to me, I will update my comments.

Thanks again for all your hard work. My iOS 14.2.1 iPhone would practically be useless in many cases without this lovely WebKit backport and other tweaks like version spoofing and "lower install".
