This project is actively maintained, with the last update being made on May 18, 2013 (...There exists a web browser for iOS that uses Tor[0]. It costs 0.99 USD from Apple's app store, but it is open source. The code is hosted on Github[1]. This project is actively maintained, with the last update being made on May 18, 2013 (The main page mistakenly says May 18, 2012, but the description says it has an update to tor version 0.2.12.4-alpha).
The project already maintains its own list of known issues[2]. Some of them (like # 26) already make me squirm. However, if Tor is ever going to make its way to iOS, working with someone who has already put considerable work into such a project might be easier than starting from scratch. The developer seems open to working with Tor people because (1)he's open-sourced the project and (2)he claims that he is donating a percentage of the proceeds to the Tor Project.
From responding to help desk tickets, I can say that there is considerable user demand for Tor on iOS. I think it would be great to make a list of things such that we could say "If Onion Browser stopped doing X and did Y all the time, the Tor Project could recommend it to users."
If there are other concerns here I am missing, please bring them up/modify this ticket/whatever.

Orbot starts normally and is connected. If I go to

with firefox+proxymob I’ve got a nice
“Congratulations. Your browser is configured to use tor”.
But I can’t load any .onion page anymore.
I tried to reinstall everything, I restored the factory settings of my phone, I tried to define proxies manually, I tried under Wifi and 3G, I tried older versions of firefox and even proxymob, etc, etc. But it just don’t work anymore even if I see “congratulations, your Browser is configured to use Tor”

Improve user experience for handling blocked access to Tor network or bridges, and prompt to user to try obfsproxy. The interesting thing that you can do on Android is tell whether the user generally has an "Internet" connection or not, meaning they have good connectivity, an IP address, etc. The state we're looking for is when the Internet is good, but Tor is stuck at 10% bootstrapping, or some other typical fingerprint of Tor network blockage.
