### 3/5 — Momento was a terrible movie

*2026-04-07*

No front end features or improvements in over a year. Come on bro. It’s just a prompt and a debug away. Still a solid app though

**Developer response:** Harsh but fair! What would like us to add next? hi@pumabrowser.com if anything!

### 2/5 — 2.2 GB + odd transitions

*2026-01-30, version 3.25.0*

Poor and late functioning. Odd and unresponsive ui ux. Disappointing. Hard pass

### 3/5 — 2.2 GB + odd transitions

*2025-11-01, version 3.25.0*

Why does this app use the most space?  Odd. Transitioning features looses menus. Needs revamped.

### 4/5 — Please add web translate

*2024-11-24, version 3.10.2*

Could you add the ability to translate websites? Thank you

### 4/5 — Good start

*2024-11-17*

I wish the browser had a feature to create accounts and sync settings/favourites etc across platforms, as well as desktop versions….

### 5/5 — Gods work

*2024-11-05, version 3.9.1*

10/10

### 5/5 — 1

*2024-08-05*

Best I’ve used yet I have like 6 different browsers secured and this one is my favorite

### 5/5 — Puma Is da SHIZZNIT!

*2024-05-23, version 3.8.16*

I use Duck Duck Go like Alot of us and it’s Cool but idk it’s NOT This cool! Idk what to say other than PUMA has Made my Job ALOT easier

### 4/5 — Erste Ergebnisse

*2024-05-17, version 3.8.14*

Ich habe den Browser installiert und ersten Test‘s unterzogen. Mein erster Eindruck ist, dass es sich um einen Fork von Mozilla Firefox handelt. Für mich ein positives Signal. Generell bin ich aber skeptisch gegenüber AI, werde aber auch dieses testen. Erstes Fazit: Schneller Browser mit (scheinbar) gute Ansätze für den Datenschutz. Leider wird hier (wie so oft) eine Suchmaschine eingesetzt, die nicht sehr Datenschutz freundlich ist.

### 5/5 — in the right direction

*2024-03-08*

Sure, it froze my phone with local LLM, openai and gemini are buggy and chat is okay, BUT this is (today) the only browser pointed in the right direction. I will hang on tight until it gets pruned, thank you devs for this!

### 5/5 — Exceptioneller Browser.

*2024-02-23, version 3.8.6*

Läuft schnell, alle Funktionen, optimierbar und Chat gpt. Dieser Browser hat einfach alles 

Vallah bin kein bot

### 4/5 — Вылетает при открытии нового кошелька

*2024-01-03, version 3.8.3*

При нажатии на new wallet вылетает. Причина?

### 2/5 — Options gone when long pressing a link...

*2023-12-26*

This is the second time this is happening... I REALLY LOVE this browser, but NOT when the following problem occurred again, after an update.

When I press and hold on a Google search results link, the page preview opens up, but , there's no options to open it, anymore. Infact, there's no options at all, attached to the link preview. Please fix this soon. Thank you!  And Merry Christmas.  : )

**Developer response:** Thanks for reporting this! The issue should be resolved in our latest release.
Please let us know if that helped!

### 5/5 — Nice

*2023-11-25*

Just downloaded it and I already love it.  With the built in wallet and you get to pick which chain to link for your home page.  Great job to the designers and Devs on this one 👍

### 2/5 — block Russian propaganda

*2023-11-12, version 3.7.8*

Is it possible to include features to block Russian propaganda sites (like rt.com and naturalnews.com) so that putins lies do not cause 
Irreparable psychological harm to unsuspecting users?

### 5/5 — Best Browser

*2023-10-23, version 3.7.6*

Alles in allem, bisher der beste Browser den ich auf meinem Handy getestet habe!
Sicher, schnell, läuft läuft läuft…..
Einzig in der Darstellung, bzw. im Dark Mode wäre es schöner, wenn die ganze dargestellte Seite dunkel wäre. Nicht nur oben und unten. 
Ansonsten echt top!

### 1/5 — Poor

*2024-11-16, version 3.9.2*

I just downloaded the app on my iPhone 8 but it refuses to launch.

### 1/5 — It was go do a while….

*2023-12-29, version 3.8.2*

It was good for a while now they have added a function to their browser that moves all tabs to inactive section if you have not view for two week and when to try to re-activate these tabs all it is blank - no web address appear on the tabs and it will not load these tabs.  Also it will not allow you to turn this function,  which is stupid you should be able the use the browser how you want to use them.

### 1/5 — DEVELOPER REPLY OUTDATED

*2023-08-25*

App QUICKLY crashes. (13.4.1 ipad 6th Gen)
Won’t open at all. Vital research tabs LOST till better update.
LAST TWO UPDATES FIXED **ZIP**.

After prior update, I wrote a review on how my ipad app crashes, begging for emergency app update.

I was sent an email. I replied.

App was updated, an email telling me iPad crashes were addressed. 

     So I updated.  .....Still crashes.

Because of course.

   Details -> It doesn’t EVENTUALLY crash. It simply won’t open.
Immediate crash. If I machine-gun-speed tap, repetitively, the app to open it, it machine-gun closes immediately. We’re talking functionless, wholly.

  And I’ve still got priceless research tabs open in that app. Completely highjacked and frozen in time. Which tabs have been open for many months. Again, very important irreplaceable tabs. And I need access.

**Developer response:** Oh no! Mind sharing a bit more info about the device (we assume iPhone?) and do you happen to remember which site caused the crash? we're at support@pumabrowser.com or Discord chat.puma.tech.
Thank you!

### 1/5 — Update did ZIP

### 1/5 — doesnt work anymore

*2023-08-05, version 3.7.4*

i run 13.4.1 and puma doesnt work at all anymore since the last 2 updates .. i start it and it simply disappears

### 1/5 — It has horrible ads all over the place!

*2022-11-05, version 3.3.10*

Deleting now!  I’m spoiled by my AdGuard in Safari.  I refuse to put up with ads!

### 1/5 — Quit attacking people

*2022-09-27, version 3.3.9*

Heathens don’t you have a coul

### 1/5 — Jesuitical tool

*2022-09-01, version 3.3.9*

One star. It’d be five if Puma would allow me to REMOVE the Covid propaganda bias windows on the homepage WITHOUT signing in (and thus forfeiting my privacy) and, no, I won’t use a privacy search.
I require CONTROL over what I see.
Why? Coz I MYSELF control what I think.
I do not buy or condone the unprincipled promotion of unfounded scare tactics and imaginary Rockefeller snake oil  ‘science’ your company wants to DEFAULT your users’ minds with.
Let people OPT for such brainwashing symbology and easy access to such mind control websites.

Never shove this at people. It tells the user who demands privacy exactly where Puma stands. And the VAST majority of the English speaking world are highly offended by being deliberately lied to — in the assertion that the piranha-virus hoax is anything other than overt deception.

Let’s summarise : promoting COVID just got you 1 star.

Searching through settings shouldn’t even be required.
“Remove” right on the homepage is the only way to get more than 1.

### 1/5 — Same as the rest

*2022-03-31, version 3.3.8*

Nothing special about this it, its even worse at blocking ads and popup…i thought this browser was going to be great but is disappointing. Use brave its much better

### 1/5 — Nice try

*2021-12-11, version 3.3.5*

Literally a Firefox reskin with built in monetization. Stay away from this abomination

### 5/5 — So NEAR

*2025-12-03*

How do i get rid of google search? Chromium was put on my device and i cannot get away from it. Was hoping to see an option. Other then that seems lovely. Thanks

### 5/5 — Great browser!

*2025-08-08*

I’ve tried many browsers, and this one is great! It does what you ask, with no worries about the browser. 

I haven’t tried the AI/LLM part yet.

### 5/5 — Add custom OpenAI compatible api hosts

*2025-05-25, version 3.23.0*

Please, I need my own hosted models

### 5/5 — Generally Overview

*2025-05-15, version 3.22.0*

Superb Innovation Superb Performance and Superb Ai Chat Interaction. Keep It Up

### 5/5 — All good but need fixing

*2025-04-17, version 3.20.0*

For some reason, this browser draining and heating up battery like crazy. Please, fix the issue. Overall everything flawless

### 5/5 — Love Puma Browser!

*2025-03-25*

The browser is very fast and I love the AI integration and variety of AI models from which to choose.  Just started using the app, but I'm sure I will discover other great features.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-01-24*

Quality fast browser wish they had a Mac OS version  
Overall, I’m using it as my default right now which Because I have seven of them installed

### 5/5 — Love it so far

*2025-01-03*

it’s really a paradigm shift to have the LLM involved in browsing the web. But that's when a lot of questions get generated in your head so it’s a good thing to have these integrated. When I clicked on send feedback, it opened Proton Mail correctly, but did not put an address in the To field. Would love to be able to put my real main mail program in by name or to use an option that relies on the system default.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2024-11-23, version 3.10.2*

It’s pretty good at what it does, I like the LLM feature, and the fact it’s Firefox based. I’d love to see a safari extension for this, but might be a tall ask. Otherwise I like this browser.

### 5/5 — Good

*2024-11-11, version 3.9.1*

Good
