Great concept. Failed execution. Try in a year.

Could not find anything resembling tabs. Far short of desktop version. Expect it to get better as Desktop features included.

Response from developer

Thank you for downloading `Zen Browser | Simple browsing`. This is a standalone simple web browser developed in 2015 that is not associated with any other desktop or mobile browser.

Very Fast, VerySimple, Perfect, Don’t Change a Thing

No tabs? GREAT! Please don’t over engineer and make it like everything else.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback and great to hear that you like the concept. Rest assured, the priority of Zen Browser will always be to stay simple and “zen”.

IOS 18.7.3 iPad keyboard error

I love the concept for this Browser and would be giving it 5 stars if it weren’t for the fact when I open it to type in a new URL, my keyboard doesn’t have a space bar. Zen DOES find the page just fine when I type the URL without spaces, it it’s annoying. Looking forward to a new update that fixes this problem. Keep up the great work!

Update: 5 stars. Thank you for that important tidbit and simple solution. Who knew a space bar would be so essential?

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. You can actually change the default keyboad behavior from settings (button with three dots at the top right of the menu overlay). I agree that it's confusing and will make the search-focused keyboard the default in the next version.

Seems like a very good browser. I also paid the $1.99 AD to be removed. However on YouTube cannot increase or unmute the volume, please fix it.

Much improved

This app has gotten a lot better since I first tried it a year or so ago! With recent changes to other browsers, I felt a need to switch to something simpler and more intentional.

I can use duckduckgo, it's easy to start a new search and find the controls, and again it does not share strange features other browsers are introducing.

Thanks and keep it up!
