This puts the app a couple of years behind the competition. Still works well though, and it’s nice to diversify away from google ### 4/5 — Extesons *2021-06-26, version 21.5.4.751* I only want the exstenshons bc google said there here ### 5/5 — Yandex *2020-08-04, version 20.6.2.318* I Like the app very much keep up the good work. And thank you very much for the app ### 5/5 — I like it *2020-05-31, version 20.4.3.358* Good ### 4/5 — It's OK browser. No worse than the rest of them. *2020-04-12, version 20.3.2.277* Works as expected. Tableau is limited to 15 entries though. Why? Also, can anybody tell what is the difference between Yandex for iPad and plain Yandex browsers? ### 5/5 — Hacker *2020-03-01, version 20.2.2.254* yandex were hackers that cannot be trusted by anyone,they were thieves who stole and destroys everything in your files.am talking about this because am their victim for 2 years till they destroyed my life.vey dangerous.Dexter Ramirez and Jonnalee Salac. also Jolene. Jaalee honey. groovehq. IPv6 address Jolee splease beware of this people otherwise ur at big risk.thank you. ### 3/5 — Будет ли Split-screen когда-нибудь добавлен? *2019-08-21, version 19.9.1.136* Будет ли эта функция включена хотя бы в версии для айпадов? Я ставлю 3, потому что хочу обратить на это ваше внимание. К нынешним айосам, а уж тем более, к выходу айпадоса, отсутсвие разделение браузера на сплит-скрины довольно важное упущение. Спасибо. ### 5/5 — Best browser *2018-11-25, version 18.11.1.303* Get it ### 5/5 — Smooth *2018-09-11, version 18.9.2.57* This browser is smooth, fast and does not crash like some others for example, Opera!! There are features that makes this browser attractive, but I’m not going to talk about. Overall excellent. ### 5/5 — Has Become My Preferred Search Engine! *2017-03-03, version 17.3.0.1781* I looked for an alternative to Google and found it. Annoyed at the censoring and deleting of information. I am an adult and that is the way I want to be treated. Yandex does that. I can search for a topic and find the information I am looking for. I don't feel like playing hide and seek. Yandex searches the request, provides the info without political interference. I hope it stays true to its users. ### 4/5 — It needs DuckDuckGo *2016-11-21, version 16.10.2.134* It's a great browser, I use it in my phone, my pcs and the iPad, but here it doesn't have DuckDuckGo as search engine. Please add it! Thanks! ### 4/5 — خیلی خوبه!!! *2016-11-20, version 16.10.2.134* عالی ،در یک کلام! ### 5/5 — 这是很好 *2016-10-20, version 16.10.0.2437* 这是很好👍 谢谢！！！ ### 4/5 — Useful *2016-09-29, version 16.7.0.3679* Useful and works ok. Deplore limited options in browsing, region, and location settings. ### 5/5 — Top notch! *2016-09-06, version 16.7.1.21152* Although i'd like to see a download management feature, this browser is Fast, easy, brilliant! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Thank you *2025-02-08, version 24.12.1.599* Thank you for this great app .. may you please make it easier to translate pages into other languages like Arabic or English I use it instead of safari ### 1/5 — It is a nice browser.. *2024-10-30, version 24.1.9.288* ..but why you need to collect all the data available. This is the browser that collects far the most data of all browsers. That is why I stopped using it.. ### 1/5 — GET THIS APP OFF THE APPSTORE *2022-08-26, version 22.9.0.2190* 0.THIS IS JUST THE WORST ### 1/5 — No English *2016-07-29, version 16.7.0.3679* Say something all I get a searches returned in a foreign language ### 1/5 — Синхронизация *2013-11-21, version 13.11* Не работает синхронизация с компьютером. ### 2/5 — Ads, Ads, Ads *2021-05-21, version 21.3.3.1242* If you like as, you'll love this browser, strange how the Android version and Safari for ios have no ads. ### 2/5 — No multitasking? *2020-03-03, version 20.2.2.254* Can somebody from Yandex explain why the browser doesn’t support multitasking on iOS. Disappointing for an otherwise good browser. ### 2/5 — Fast browser but crashes *2015-07-03, version 15.6.2311.4269* This browser is a lot faster than Sarfari. Unfortunately, it crashes all the time. You then have to reopen it. It gives you a choice to reload it to the last place it was at, so that is helpful. I contacted the Russian technical support and they always answered me promptly in English. I finally deleted it today, after using it for a year or more. I just got disgusted with all the crashes. If they fixed the crashes, it would be a five star app. I kept it so long because I was hoping it would be upgraded. ### 2/5 — Disappointing *2015-03-23, version 14.12.2125.9580* An unexpected shut down in every 2 minutes.fix it plz ### 2/5 — Я ожидал лучшего *2013-07-27, version 2.10* Ни истории ни недавних вкладок ничего нет. Очень разочарован. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — surprise Russian browser app *2025-10-08, version 25.07.1.357* got incredible real quick ### 5/5 — Disclosure *2025-08-19, version 25.07.1.357* When I search the major browsers, ai then search Yandex for the total rest of the information the major browsers DON’t Show. I’m very impressed. ### 5/5 — Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa *2025-05-29, version 24.12.1.599* aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaa ### 5/5 — Just like Google *2022-09-16, version 22.9.1.590* So this browser is kind of similar to Google can you make it more different than Google? ### 5/5 — Pls add "Split View" & "Set as default browser" *2021-11-10, version 21.11.1.760* Pls add "Split View" & "Set as default browser" ### 5/5 — Obelisk says…… *2021-09-18, version 21.8.0.2007* I recommend this browser to the masses in Canada and South America……best browser in the world, lots of tools that keeps you protected…etc…etc..mucho magnifico !!! ### 5/5 — Beautiful app *2021-07-04, version 21.5.5.583* I love this app, it’s really great. ### 5/5 — Very Good *2020-12-21, version 20.11.1.253* The only browser that works for me in Canada. All other browsers freeze when piece of crap government censors. ### 5/5 — Crashes on iPad 8 with iOS 14.2 *2020-11-12, version 20.9.1.252* I use Yandex apps and browsers happily on my Macs and iPhones. I have been a professional software developer for several decades. On my new iPad 8 with fully updated iOS the Yandex Browser for iPad works normally for a few days, then starts crashing immediately on startup. The browser configuration and use is very conservative and unremarkable. The first time I experienced the problem and could not fix it, I finally deleted the browser app. After a few days I reinstalled the app, and two days later it started crashing again. Deleted it again. Will stick to Chrome on the iPad. Update Nov 12 2020. In response to the one-star review above, Yandex support sent me a link to a new build (255) of the browser, which has now worked perfectly for two days of heavy use on my iPad 8. This is very satisfactory for me because I use Yandex browser, search, and apps on all my computers and mobile devices. The rating has been upgraded accordingly. ### 5/5 — A fast browser *2020-10-12, version 20.8.3.332* However high power consumption --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
