Good now, great later
Arc has fundamentally changed how I use the web, on my phone, laptop, and iPad. The mobile version is a bit buggy — certain sites don’t load, so I’m occasionally forced to use Chrome or Safari — but the Browse For Me function is a game changer, and Spaces is a fantastic way to organize your browsing. The immersiveness of the browsing experience in Arc has also helped me curb mindless scrolling. The fact that the search bar is the first thing I see when I open the app, for instance, helps me make active decisions about what website or information I’m actually looking for, instead of distracting me with whatever article I was reading the last time I used the app. I’m excited for the bug fixes and for the features this browser will surely receive. Props to The Browser Company for making web browsers — that ancient technology — exciting again.BUYK BOI FIGGY
Literally the best browser since safari.
This app is just, stunning. I have never seen an app that can use AI to create a custom website so you don’t have to look at multiple links. This app is the best thing to come to humanity since the invention of the smartphone. It’s also a very versatile way to get your information without having pop up adds. It is a very good way to use AI and gets the job done without needing a silly subscription plan. As a fellow wannabe app developer, and someone who is working on an application, this is quite literally, very well executed and designed. This deserves best browser app for 2024 and many more years to come. I am having trouble with the pinch to summarize feature for the links, but overall I love it, you developers are amazing! Thanks for creating this!#Violin_tuning
Absolutely LOVE Arc!
I’ve been using Arc for a while now, and it has completely transformed how I manage my online activities. As someone juggling schoolwork, photography projects, work, and personal stuff, this browser has been a game-changer.
The sleek and minimalistic interface makes browsing so much more enjoyable and less cluttered. I love the built-in productivity tools like split-screen browsing and notes, which help me multitask efficiently. The sidebar navigation is a brilliant replacement for traditional tab management, making it super easy to switch between different websites and tools.
One of my favorite features is the customizable spaces. I can create different workspaces for various tasks, keeping everything organized and accessible. The collaboration feature is also fantastic for sharing workspaces and collaborating in real-time.
Privacy and security are top-notch with ad and tracker blocking, giving me peace of mind while browsing. The customization options, like themes and extensions, allow me to personalize my browsing experience.
But what truly sets Arc apart is the Arc Search app for iOS. It’s CRAZY good for finding information quickly and efficiently. The AI-powered “Browse for Me” feature scours the web, summarizes content, and blocks ads and trackers. It saves me so much time and effort!
Overall, Arc has helped me stay organized and efficient in all my activities. I genuinely recommend giving it a try. You won’t be disappointed!Jared Scheel
