SP is great privacy friendly search engine no doubt. But only good search engine is not enough for privacy and security. SP browser is open to privacy and security vulnerabilities like Google chrome. No fingerprint resistance, no content blocker, only Zap feature. It is incomplete as a Browser. Better to use SP as default search engine with Browsers like Cromite, Brave, Mull, Fennec f-droid, Iceraven, Mulch, Firefox etc.

Im giving SP 3.4 stars why?? I been waiting for SP to release a privacy browser for a while, & when they brought it, there was no ad block or dark mode, which is now pushing back to using Samsung internet with sp as my default. Its really feels like SP isn't interested in giving us darkmode with an adblocker according too the last couple of updates. The browser though is beautiful and I really appreciate the new Zap function, it works well. I hope 🤞 SP considers delivering sooner or later;

First of all, there is no option to select other search engines (eg Google, DuckDuckGo) within this browser. By default there is only Startpage search engine. Then any ads blocking and pop up redirect block feature is missing. Which seems a bit insecure. They offer privacy but do not have Privacy Basic tied into their browsers. Using Brave Browser will make you much more secure than this.
