### 5/5 — Translation

*2025-10-12, version 2.36.1*

Hi 

Happy to use this browser , I was in a trip to Quebec City , some pages are shown in French since it’s  French speaking province , I tried to translate the page in English as chrome but I can’t find that option.kindly enable that feature in this browser

### 5/5 — I’m really enjoying the app.

*2025-10-12*

I love how secure and user friendly it is. I love the design feel. I have one humble request if it’s not much to ask. Can you please add a read aloud functionality, it makes going through articles , news or even reading novels way easier.

### 5/5 — Well secured and fast

*2025-10-09, version 2.36.0*

### 5/5 — Agni

awesome browser

### 5/5 — Excellent Work

*2025-10-09*

It’s simply superb and amazing feeling I can’t express in words Its amazing to have own browser. I have request to improve browsing experience for example if I search an any place am not able to see any info like direction to share about the place it’s all minor things. I hope you understand what am trying to tell you.

### 5/5 — Extension support and fullscr

*2025-10-09*

Give extension support like Orion browser, which will make this browser more unique. I know because of Apple guidelines extensions are quite problematic, but if you want to make it a different and more appealing extension support can be the way through it like ublock
Adguard and reader etc

2. Full screen when scrolling instead of showing the address bar all the time when a long pages entered the browser should automatically go in a full screen mode where the entire screen is being used or an option should be provided in the menu. Where with one click the browser enters full screen mode That is the entire screen is used and nothing is shown except for the content of the site like the focus mode on orion browser .

### 5/5 — 🇮🇳

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Where is the data privacy ?

*2025-10-12*

Feedback & Questions for Ulaa Team: 
1.  Search Engine Dependence: Ulaa currently offers external search engines like Google, Yahoo, and DuckDuckGo — but no native or independent search option. In scenarios where global providers are inaccessible (e.g., geopolitical conflicts or censorship), how will users continue to search the web through Ulaa? 

2. Privacy Concerns with External Search Engines: 
Even with tracker-blocking, if users rely on Google or Yahoo, those providers can still collect query data and user metadata. How does Ulaa mitigate this exposure beyond browser-level protections? Is there any plan to proxy or anonymize search traffic?

3.  Sustainability & Business Model:
 Ulaa promises zero ads, zero tracking, and no data monetization — which is admirable. However, maintaining a browser is resource-intensive. Could you clarify how Ulaa is sustainably funded, and whether it will remain free and ad-free long term? Is it subsidized solely by Zoho, or is there a monetization model planned?

4. There are lot of reviews like - ulla is so good that I don’t use google. 😂😂😂. 
There are lot of fake reviews( almost 80% } . Maximum recent questions were unanswered. 
People are not fool . They will soon realised it.

### 1/5 — duckduckgo.com

*2025-09-30, version 2.35.2*

am not sure why i would download the ULAA app to connect to duckduckgo.com … seriously?

### 1/5 — Please change its name.

*2025-05-24, version 2.31.2*

Everything fantastic just name is  not  justified. Some opinions Zero, Umaa, Vyom , Navi. Dhara, Nabh,

### 1/5 — App crash

*2024-10-09*

After the last update. App crashed. Tried reinstalling but once logged in with an account app crashed again

### 1/5 — Have better odds of Putin telling the truth

*2024-03-24, version 2.12.1*

For the simplest tasks it’s excruciating to use 
Doesn’t matter the weather , time date or year 
For that matter.  By the time you find what your 
Actually looking for, I could have preformed the
Same task-using the old stand by ( phone book )
- if there was a way to accelerate  the search process I would be more inclined to give it a better rating .  However this is not the case .

### 1/5 — App crash

*2023-10-13*

App crash after last update Very Bad App u never 👎 Come worh good update

**Developer response:** We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. It's important to note that we are currently in the beta phase. We kindly request that you update to the latest version, as we have addressed the crash issue in the most recent updates. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. Thanks for choosing Ulaa! 😊

### 1/5 — J’essaie

*2023-09-19*

On verra à l’usage
J’ai test finalement
On peut rentrer une adresse
Mais faire une nouvelle recherche, l’app est fagotée par Google. Il faut donc supprimer l’app la réinstaller pour un nouvel usage
Loin d’être au point

### 1/5 — Derived from chrome.

*2023-05-13*

Nothing existing. Copy paste of chrome.

**Developer response:** We are currently in beta and are working on a new look and feel for the browser. Stay tuned for updates!

### 2/5 — Needs some work from the team

*2025-09-28, version 2.35.2*

I recently downloaded the Ulaa browser app to test its performance on my iPhone 13 Pro running iOS 18.1.1. Here’s my initial feedback:

1. Browser Rendering Issue: When scrolling through web pages, the browser engine repaints the frame, causing noticeable visual glitches. For example, when visiting a Wikipedia article on Ulaa and scrolling, there’s a distracting white flash as the view repaints. In contrast, opening the same article in Safari on iOS provides a smooth, seamless scrolling experience without any flashes.

2. Branding Suggestion: 
To compete effectively in the crowded web browser market against giants like Chrome and Safari, consider rebranding the browser. The name "Ulaa" may not resonate strongly. A more recognizable and impactful name, such as "Zoho Browser," could leverage the established Zoho brand and attract more users.

### 2/5 — Good fast and nimble (now broken)

*2024-06-15*

Latest release broke the app, not working on iphone12

I am using this primarily for my search because it loads much faster and smoother than chrome But I still use chrome for the discover feature where personalised news come on the opening screen, not sure if that’s in your enhancement pipeline

### 5/5 — Crashing

*2026-02-14*

With the latest iOS the browser is crashing..

### 5/5 — Proudly Indian!

*2026-01-30*

I am fully satisfied and very happy to use Ulaa, a truly world-class Indian browser. Honestly, I didn't feel any negative difference compared to big names like Google Chrome or Brave. In fact, it is better in one major way: zero unnecessary advertisements.
The browsing experience is incredibly smooth and fast. It feels great to support "Made in India" technology that actually delivers on its promises. Since the browser is so good, I am now very keen to use an Indian search engine alongside it to complete the experience.
It makes me proud to see India developing such high-quality software. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a clean, ad-free, and fast web experience!

### 5/5 — Good Browser for Everyday Use

*2025-12-22, version 2.38.3*

I have been using this browser for about 2 months now and the browser works greatly for all everyday use case.

Adblocker docent block all the ads or popups (80% ads are blocked) hopefully it will be improved with future updates.

Also, swipe to close any tab features is not available. In every other browser when you have all tabs shown as tiles you can swipe left/right to remove it but with this browser it switches to tab groups or privacy mode. Its not too big of an issue but since it is not consistent with other browsers it fees but weird.

Overall good browser.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-12-13, version 2.38.1*

Better than Google. Love it.

### 5/5 — Best browser available on App Store

*2025-11-21*

This browser actively adapt to your website, and gives you seamless experience, and it also passively block ads without raising ad blocker alarm of website, it does much better job than the apps which touts it ad blocker , just use it and see for your self

### 5/5 — Joe

### 5/5 — Really good browser
