NxN Browser
Read full descriptionHide full description
An independently developed web browser app I created it because existing browsers were difficult to use. Major companies all provide browsers, but I will continue improving this app with the goal of creating an experience that cannot be found in any of them. - Gesture features Reload, new tab, close, restore, back, and forward. Once you get used to them, they become indispensable. - Tab group feature Every browser can manage tabs, but tab groups are not very common, are they? You can switch between many open tabs while still viewing the web page. There is also a tab group screen where you can view multiple tab groups at the same time, so even your tab groups can be checked at a glance. - Full-screen display Full-screen display is available in many browsers, but this app allows detailed setting changes, such as keeping the URL bar visible. - Settings screen Since everyone uses browsers differently, I have made it possible to adjust a wide range of detailed settings.

A new way to use AI, visually. Buddy is an AI that answers with interactive visuals, not paragraphs of text. Ask a question and it draws — maps, carousels, charts, plans you can check off. Every answer is made for you uniquely: your language and your aesthetics. Sharing it with friends is a click away. Use the web as your hub of connections The web is yours and any website can be a connection, not just Gmail, Notion or whichever integration is supported. Sign in once, on the site's own page, and Buddy can open and read it for you whenever you ask: your ads dashboard, your inbox, your project tracker, the forum you follow. What can you ask? Anything. But if you want somewhere to start: • Where should we eat tonight? — a map, ranked picks, and the tradeoffs • Compare these three, honestly — scored on what you actually care about • Plan the trip — an itinerary with times, costs, and conflicts • Teach me this — an explainer with quick practice, so it sticks • How are our numbers this week? — read straight from your ads dashboard • The same question every morning — any ask can become a briefing that rebuilds itself Private by nature No account, no email, no password — Buddy works without knowing who you are. Your passwords never leave your phone. Your history, bookmarks, and chats are stored there and nowhere else. Your data should be yours Start free. Buddy Plus raises your limits.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: NxN Browser at 13.0 against Buddy's 17.0. On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
