A bookmarks bar for quick navigation to your favourite web pages
Ad blocker integrated
No annoying app popups when navigating to their webpages
Play videos without pausing when switching tabs.
Scroll over the tabs bar to quick switch between pages.
Middle mouse button switches between scroll to zoom and scroll to... scroll.
Add web page shortcuts to the desktop which support the ability to launch in any browser
Shift+Space will automatically insert a space into the web page if you have the Desktop Hub 'Enhanced dekstop' mode turned on with the option "Disable 'shift + space' language switch" enabled. This is an issue that many users have with DeX so Desktop Browser tries to address this issue.
No data is used for profit, all app profits come from the upgrade to pro option, so you can choose to support the developer
The bookmarks bar is a premium feature just to give me incentive to continue developing this browser long term. As I don't use your data or do any deals with search engines this is the only income from the app.
The reason for the browser user agent being set to Chrome OS is to increase desktop mode optimisations in websites without the common mistakes that we see in other Android browsers running in desktop mode showing a mobile UI on pages such as Facebook.
The mobile experience is barely optimised.
For now it kind of works but I wouldn't suggest that it's better than any other mobile browser.
The design of the browser follows similar design standards to multiple browsers built for other desktop operating systems.
Some web pages require special permissions such as camera and microphone permissions, so the browser will request those on first launch, but the web pages themselves will also need to request those permissions when it requires them.
This is currently only a beta so please expect a few bugs.
