iPhone Is Nitrous safe to use?

[rhino89]

I only use Safari as my browser, so I didn't install Nitrous for chrome and other browsers. I only have it to speed up apps like Facebook and flipboard. Is this a safe tweak for my purposes, since I don't use it with chrome? Or is it still a security vulnerability that I should keep in mind?

If it were a security risk, your iPhone would still be vulnerable through Safari even without Nitrous.

Nitrous is an on or off thing, not per app.

I bought Nitrous today and it didn't seem to affect the speed of Safari and Chrome. I still get the same 1400ms in the Sunspider JS test with or without Nitrous on.

Did you enable it in settings? On the 5, Chrome gets around 869ms for me.

do you guys see a real noticeable result beside benchmark number? I use Atomic and want to see if its worth the cost. thanks

I have the iPad Mini so it's slower than the iPhone 5. I only have the Setting in the background and every other app taken off the multitasking menu. The lowest I can get is above 1400. It probably has more to do with the A5 processor on the iPad Mini.
