In Tor Browser 10.5 for desktop we retired the Tor Launcher in favor of a new interface that allows users to connect to Tor from the browser window itself.Given that, it no longer makes sense to continue to represent onion sites with an icon so closely associated with Tor Browser, and we're excited to introduce their new identity today. Today, in addition to Tor Browser, you can also access onion services in compatible apps like Orbot, Onion Browser and Brave, to name a few.
As onion service adoption has grown among civil society groups, human rights organizations, and news media outlets, so too has support for visiting onion services by third-party apps. It's important to recognize that onion services are not exclusive to Tor Browser, and are a product in their own right.Now, when you visit an onion site in Tor Browser 12.5 on either desktop or Android you'll notice something new. Previously, onion sites were represented by the onion-glyph – a tiny, flat version of Tor Browser's onion logo.In addition, relays now have flags to help make their locations easier to identify at a glance the design of onion site circuits has been made more concise SecureDrop users who visit a human-readable onion name can now see and switch back to the underlying V3 onion address and the panel as a whole has been rebuilt from scratch for better compatibility with screen readers. To fix this, we've moved the circuit display behind a colorful new icon that sits beside the padlock.Usability testing participants often struggled to find the circuit display when asked, and users generally needed to be taught where it lived. Up until this release the circuit display lived in the site information panel – meaning you'd have to click the padlock icon (or onion icon, in the case of onion sites) to the left of the address bar to access it. In Tor Browser for desktop, the Tor circuit for each of your tabs can be found in the circuit display.
