| 2024-12-17 |  | | On Foldable phones or tablets, there is no tab management visible. You have to swipe down to see a gallery, which is very annoying. Also there is no support for 3rd party autofill programs. They want you to use their own Microsoft autofill which is garbage. Only saving grace is the ability to use extensions using dev mode. |
| 2024-12-05 |  | | With the exception of the odd period of crashes when it updates and the phone doesn't like it, it has worked pretty well, syncs with my desktop faves/passwords and most importantly has extension support however it has the annoying habit of my finger not alleigning with the touch screen in the app correctly, ie when I press a link I have to press several mm below where I want to press. Not always been like that, only last few updates, wish it was fixed, possibly a Samsung Fold issue? |
| 2024-11-29 |  | | 11-28-24 the amount of trackers in the source code in the background in Canary is crazy, stealing so much analytics data when other chromium browsers like Kiwi don't have any of these. In addition Bugs on Fold5 large screen. Tabs do not appear at the top on larger Fold5 screen and on Facebook marketplace messages column are not visible, other pages have similar experience. Please fix, emailed info and screenshots |
| 2024-11-20 |  | | Buggy as expected, does not scale properly on pixel 9 pro fold when unfolded (UI elements are displayed behind the notification bar). This bug is not present in the stable releases. |
| 2024-11-09 |  | | This app needs the ability to go to an extension site, Chrome store or your own and install the extensions that work on Kiwi browser. PrintFriendly for one. Every time I install the huge update, I look for that, but nothing. The same few recommended that aren't anything I care about. Don't care about ad blocking as I do that system-wide. Don't need AI powering my browser. Copilot works but I don't think it's better than the first AI I used, on FB. |
| 2024-11-03 |  | | Sometimes certain extensions get randomly killed and won't work anymore. I have to either kill and relaunch the browser, or disable and re-enable said extensions one by one. Update: this mostly happens with AdGuard and ublock, but often I get like half of my extensions killed. Update: now when this happens, I try to open extensions menu and the browser crashes. Please fix these and it will be the best browser |
| 2024-10-31 |  | | Lack of privacy settings (DoH, JIT, etc.), gutted UI features (list tab switcher), can't disable autofill tab placed on top of keyboard, even with all autofill settings turned off |
| 2024-10-30 |  | | As of Now, There is a Anti-adblock notice, Ads, and video sponsorships ads of the YT and all video streaming sites. Because of your browser is outdated due to Manifest V2 for video site adblocking is phased out last July of this year. But it need to replace the Manifest V2 with Manifest V3 for video site adblocking. There is no Video Picture-in-Picture mode and Background Playback feature in this browser. But it need to add some of these features to the browser. |
| 2024-09-30 |  | | This is a great browser with extensions and desktop sync, but the problem is it's too heavy. It takes a while to load up the app on midrange devices (mine is A52), compared to alternatives like Kiwi. I wish it were lighter |
| 2024-09-06 |  | | I use this browser daily and appreciate that it's frequently updated. However, every third or fourth update seems to introduce bugs, causing it to crash right after opening. I've tested this issue on two devices, and it happens consistently. Another ongoing issue is that the menu option is often slow, which I believe could be fixed with some optimization. I strongly recommend that updates be thoroughly tested on actual phones rather than just Android simulators before releasing to avoid issue |
