I don't get your tab issue, but I do still get the text field problem, and yeah it's irritating.
Got a tip for us?

Really like it!
I really like Atomic Browser. Also downloaded iCab. Can't decide which one I like better though. It seems that Atomic Browser may be slightly faster, maybe. The iCab UI is prettier. Atomic browser doesn't have bookmark bar but I like the way bookmarks are handled better.

Noticed that it auto updates the pages when you restart (Safari style). Is there a way to disable so that it just reloads where you were and not update the pages?
Love this app!
I read about this and downloaded it last night. I really wanted the tabs more than anything. I hate the way Safari on iPad works. Thanks for making a reasonably priced browser with great features. The only thing I've run into is some times I don't get the popup that lets me open a link in a new tab. I'm not sure if it's me or the app.

Atomic Web OR iCab
Didn't know iCab was out. I've been using Atomic Web on iPad. And I use Opera Mini and Atomic Web on my iPhone. Guess I'll have to take a look at iCab too
Wish I could designate a default browser other than Safari, on both devices. Links always open on Safari

New update is great. Browsing the web seems a bit faster and I like the new x button on the tabs.
BTW....
Here's a bug I found. I can't login into my router settings page. The login popup doesnt seem to appear. Loading indicator tells me something is loading but stalls. This however works in Safari.
Here's the details of my router:
Wrt54gv3
Dd-wrt firmware v24

Opening PDF files
Does anyone know if Atomic can open links to PDF files? I tapped on a link to a PDF file this morning and there was no reaction. I opened the same link in Safari and was able to view the file. Started using Atomic this week and like it so far

Me too !! There are other secure sites where the popup doesnt work as well buty I dont remember them
Holy crap at least I'm not alone! I really thought this only affected me since everyone (including the dev) glossed over it.
I posted in the 1Password feature request forum about integration with browsers.
Unfortunately, the response suggests that due to other priorities this isn't going to happen anytime soon.
Personally, I'd move from 1Password if another developer was prepared to do this.
It looks relatively simple (note: I'm not an iPhone developer, but I was a software developer a few years ago, so I have some idea of what might be involved.
For an idea of how it might work, have a look at what Smile On My Mac have done with the iPhone version of TextExpander: http://www.smileonmymac.com/TextExpander/touch/sdk.html
So, now we just need to find a willing developer who will produce an SDK for their product!

I don't have any issue with making things better, or supporting 1Password, but my concern is... why that particular program? There are a bunch of similar ones available (I use SplashID). What merits special attention to one in particular?
For me, it's the fact that it has a desktop version with browser integration, so I can use one solution across Mac, iPhone, iPad etc.
Just a thought on another approach that could work. 1Password can export to a Safari bookmarklet which when clicked opens a popup asking for an authorisation code, it then decrypts the appropriate login details, fills the form and submits it. This bookmarklet doesn't work in Atomic. It doesn't survive the export/import cycle from Safari intact, and if I copy/paste it from Safari it still doesn't work, but this could be an easier approach for integration.
Just spotted this jailbreak app: OpenOpera: New SBSettings Toggle To Set OperaMini As Your Default Browser
I've emailed the developer to see if he could make it work for Atomic.

Me neither, but hopefully what the developer has done for Opera he can do for Atomic, i.e. you click a link in any other app and it opens in Atomic instead of Safari.
Developer has now updated this. The app is in Cydia and is called Browser Changer. You can use it to set Atomic as your default browser!
Really? Wow. I use the Atomic as my primary browser everyday and with the exception of some very rare crashes, I find Atomic pretty much one of the most robust browser options available.
In the other iCab vs Atomic thread, I have seen at least a couple of comments stating "bugs", but were really just people unfamiliar with how to customize the Atomic to work better for their needs.
I liked the tabs and gestures but the lack of a cursor in text windows and in many text windows, I just can't get the keyboard to open. That's a deal breaker for me. I gave them my dollar gladly. Happy to support the efforts. I just don't it's better than safari.
I will still use it on two sites where I want to change browser identity.
