| 2024-11-06 |  | | Aloha keeps siphoning off features that were key reasons I used the app in the first place. The built-in VPN is constantly disconnecting without warning or stopping traffic; I used to be able to block site redirects, now no longer possible; I used to be able to add sites to unsafe or block but can no longer do so. Aloha is becoming the new Firefox: fake safe and fake private |
| 2024-07-15 |  | | Tab navigation sucks compared to any other browser. ¶Unlike any other browser your downloads are hidden in a folder within this app and you have to move them (in this app) to your visible folders to see and interact with them outside of this app, you can *pay* to change this to the regular downloads folder, so we know why this happens at least. Being able to download files other browsers can't is the key benefit of this app. |
| 2024-05-10 |  | | The app is good. Buggy sometimes, but still worth having. DON'T CLEAR YOUR DATA unless you want to lose all your downloads. For some extremely dumb reason, they makers have included your downloads into the data it clears. You will lose it all, and the company could care less. They say there is a warning. The warning says "files". That could mean anything. It needs to state "downloads". So, always move your downloads out of Aloha before clearing your data. |
| 2024-04-26 |  | | The app has features that do well than others and downloading on sites that usually are a pain to get around, but the VPN (which is one of the most important features) doesn't really seem to work. I've de/activated it multiple times to no change. If the free version does not show value, how can I trust the paid version? Connecting to the fastest server doesn't mean anything to me when the results don't update to what it otherwise would. |
| 2024-04-14 |  | | The absolute best part of the app is the ease of downloading media, that alone makes the browser worth using. (Also please make an option to download straight to my device, rather than a folder in the browser) The worst part of the browser is the built-in adblocker isn't very effective, or it often gets detected and websites tell you to turn it off. I try to keep Aloha updated, but it often doesn't help. |
| 2024-04-13 |  | | Used to be an incredible tool, now it freezes on the loading screen and then just eventually crashes after a minute before even opening up, straight from launch. I'm not sure what happened but the app has fallen apart entirely within the last month. Guess the devs tried to add too many things. Edit: Reinstalling did nothing. Guess I'll delete it, an app with the audacity to be half a gigabyte should at least work. Devs got too greedy. |
| 2024-02-20 |  | | VPN service is great and navigation is user friendly. Only problem is if I'm paying for premium I shouldn't have so many issues downloading files from websites. That's the main reason I tried it out. After a few months I started getting download error messages. Unsupported scheme and etc. I still haven't heard back from you on what that means or how to get around this. Some feedback or solutions would be great. |
| 2023-12-30 |  | | I like the video downloader, it works well and allows the choice for resolution which is a great touch. However, it crashes often during simple things like opening new tabs and displaying some content. Edit: the support team is great, however the app crashes too often to warrant five stars. Even when it's the only app open, it will drag with only one tab open, so even low memory shouldn't be a problem. |
| 2023-07-08 |  | | Continual "can't find web page, try using VPN". Then when I refresh (not using VPN at all either time), the same exact page will sometimes load, sometimes not. This is across many different sites - shopping, news, blogs, etc. Didn't have this issue with Opera, Chrome works fine. Odd. Eventually, I'll probably get annoyed enough to uninstall at this rate. It's so very slow, too. |
| 2023-06-21 |  | | Best browser ever made. Thank you! The only pet pev is the most of my video downloads crash, which might have be ok but when you try to continue the crashed video you get an error that prevents and restarting the download or continuing from where it was at the time of the crash. So you end up with a lot of wasted time of finding a fantastic video you must have to only get disappointed to find out that all videos you were so excited to download crashed and you don't know where you found them. |
