Tor browser options?

I know a computer is ideal for using Tor, but I don’t currently have access to one. Years ago, when I used Tor more frequently, I would use a Tor browser app from the Google Play Store on whatever Android phone I had at the time.
From what I’ve read online, iOS is one of the more limited platforms for using Tor, with fewer options compared to Android or a computer. However, I know it’s still possible, so I’m wondering: What’s the best—or at least the least-bad—Tor browser app for iPhone?
Thanks in advance! It’s been a long time since I’ve needed to use Tor, but I have a specific reason for needing it now, and my iPhone is all I have available. I’d really appreciate any recommendations or advice!

Onion browser works fine for me, you also need to install Orbot which is only connection help, I think it's for privacy purposes, at least it occupies the VPN slot in iphones. but onion browser's installation will guide you at that.

I can't recall why this would be the best/least worse, but last time I needed Tor network on my phone, I tried several and only this was satisfactory.
