A website I go to that exports data to a second tab doesn’t work to do that because of this issue. If I figure out how to change this somehow in settings or something I will update this review. **Developer response:** Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we're actively reviewing ways to improve tab management and browsing behavior in future updates. Thank you again for your support. ### 4/5 — Muy buena App *2024-06-11, version 2.8* No tengo más quejas que el hecho de que me obliguen a ver un anuncio tan pronto como abro la app lol ### 3/5 — Doesnt load *2023-11-05* Does not load anykind of options in web pages, not responsive. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. Any suggestions are welcome. :) ### 4/5 — Add custom start pages *2023-08-06* I really like it! Just add custom start pages, and I’m all for it! I’ll even ditch Google **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your encouraging star ratings! Keep using our app :) ### 2/5 — Youtupe not pc brawser *2023-04-07, version 2.5* Youtupe not pc brawser ### 1/5 — Trash *2020-11-29, version 1.9* App is trash I want a refund. ### 1/5 — Auto populates “www”, so cannot use urls that don’t begin with www - so not at all useful for me. *2018-12-18* Will delete as cannot use with web pages that don’t begin with www **Developer response:** Sorry for inconvenience caused. Please update application now. ### 1/5 — Apps won’t launch at all *2018-11-22* Maybe it’s not compatible with iPhone se iOS 12.1 I barely used it when it was iOS 11 **Developer response:** Sorry for inconvenience caused. Please update application now. ### 1/5 — Closed on open *2018-11-18, version 1.8* Does not work with iOS 12 ### 1/5 — Excellent *2018-09-26, version 1.8* I needed a full screen Browser and this does the job very well. UPDATE app needs update for iOS 12 ### 1/5 — IOS12 Crash *2018-09-21, version 1.8* This brilliant app no longer works with IOS12 Sort it ### 2/5 — Not very useful *2017-10-30* Yes, it’s full-screen, but it’s very simple, with minimal features. It’ll remember only two URLs. I bought it to show my two websites to others quickly and with minimal effort. Unfortunately, this app forgets these sites after a few days and reverts back to Google Search. As other more useful apps automatically open to Google Search, this app isn’t helpful for my purpose. And it’s unlikely to be helpful for other applications in view of its minimal features. **Developer response:** Sorry for inconvenience caused. Please update application now. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — IAP needs editing *2026-06-06* Customers need importing bookmarks Editing bookmarks isn’t available even after IAP **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. Any suggestions are welcome. :) ### 1/5 — Nice app but needs fixing. *2026-05-23, version 3.6* Great full screen browser, with a clear history list. Quite a few versions ago a bug appeared that created a problem with resolving local host urls like hostname.local:8080 So if you enter your devices URL into the address bar it just runs it as a search query. This was never originally a problem, if you don’t think this will be a problem for you then treat this review as 5 stars. As updates since this bug appeared haven’t done anything to fix this I have continued to lower its star rating. I now use an excellent alternative app that’s works as you’d expect a full screen browser to work. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work if you try to use this browser with remote desktop. *2025-08-22* I paid a dollar to use this software on web version of chrome remote desktop in full screen and it didn’t work. It works with any other browser, but those don’t have full screen option. **Developer response:** Sorry for the inconvenience caused. It's mobile app not web version. ### 1/5 — Ad spam *2025-05-28* You barely can use the app! It keeps spamming with as one of the other. It’s really annoying. I would never recommend. **Developer response:** Sorry for the inconvenience caused. You can buy remove ads purchase and get rid off the advertisements. ### 1/5 — Nice app but needs fixing. *2024-06-12, version 2.8* Great full screen browser, with a clear history list.
