Outstanding app! Just a few minor issues. Once I figure those out it's an easy five stars. It doesn't have bookmarks.

I like this lite browser! It works great so far! (New...) I have uninstalled it and tried many more since my initial review, and am again using this great lite weight browser! I like it, plain and simple! And the ai chat is a simple, interesting add to the mix! Again, great app!

Still like app but. Now Smart search has some of their own adds, on the bottom and some popup adds by Tabula. I see that my last review was deleted but now I like this browser a lot. It was confusing at first but now use it exclusively now that I have it set up.

Far too much hassle to be worth having installed. Auto rotate? Maybe have a look at that. Want to put a new address in? Keyboard doesn't auto pop-up. Turn keyboard on, then it doesn't work when you go to write a post on Facebook. Go to watch video, seems to be working fine, notice that the button for the auto rotate video is not on (because there was no keyboard), turn it on, now when you turn your phone sideways, screen goes black. A lot of thought went into allowing all these options. Too much.

The best and most complete browser, I have found. Every once and a while, my "let me go see what else" thing perks up and I will try a few other browsers just to see... and I always come back to Smart Search. Ah, do I hope for a dark theme soon? Yeah, but I'm guessing its coming. Otherwise, Smart Search is so much more complete but still snappy. I've developed code for 35 years and I can tell when a developer cares to execute thoroughly, efficiently and well. That's what Smart Search does.

It has everything anybody could ever want! Update: I've changed my mind about this app and can no longer recommend it. Within hours, they tried to track me with 1,588 trackers! Thankfully, duckduckgo, which I recommend, blocked them. Often times, when you try to search, it says, 'unable to load, check your connection. ' Well, mine is fine, so I suggest you check yours! It says it has ad blocking, but that's a joke. I'm not totally wrong and neither are all the people who gave a negative review.

Love this browser! With your tiny handful of add-ons I have more functionality than with browsers bloated with thousands. Downloads and PDFs and adblock and translation and black theme (thank you!!) and, its fast. It looks good. It's never, ever crashed. It would be delightful to have this on all the devices-of whatever os. Can I do that? Because I'm spoiled now, see. Really, solid browser. Update: Upgraded phone, switched OS, and this thing runs solid as ever. Devs, make more apps!

I have used this app for awhile now, and am constantly impressed with it. I think I have tried almost all the other browsers out there including Samsung they sort of work, but have found they are invasive and are not very good at keeping up. UI is great and I love the fact I can customize the browser settings to fit my needs. the ad blocker works so well that I to remember to turn it off sometimes to get to some websites that I use. Great job with this one. Thank you.

Like the Facebook app, this browser continues to run after you naively thought you closed it. Edit/reply to dev: It didn't just lie dormant in memory. It was actively running in some fashion. I realized this when I noticed an icon in my notification bar that I hadn't seen before. It belonged to Smart Search. We close most apps expecting them to do nothing, whether or not they reside in memory. Of course, apps like sms and email, etc. need to run even after they're closed. Where am i wrong?

My fav browser for 2019. So far everything is awesome about this browser. Much faster & better privacy than some of the other bigger names. The only way to know if u like anything is to try it first. I like the ease of use. UPDATE: I couldn't find it in settings... a way to add another search engine to the top feed where we can switch by swiping. It doesn't let me add one that isn't already listed.

This browser is as close to perfection as you'll find on Play Store! After going through browser after browser trying to settle on something decent, I was frustrated that of the dozens, perhaps 100's of browsers on here not one was satisfactory and was afraid I'll have to get used to mediocrity. Until I found Smart Search & Web Browser and began to use is when I realized this browser leaves all the rest in the rear view mirror. I'm very satisfied with this one and my search is finally over.

Haven't used the app much, but I almost left a negative review because I selected "clear history", and "clear history while exit". My history remained even after I closed it . Only after force closing it in my settings did the changes take effect. Maybe you should note that, because people will think it's not working. Also, even though I select one search engine, it defaults to YouTube every time when I open it. EDIT: Uninstalled. A bit laggy too.

Great simple browser. It's lightweight and loads quick, easy to search with pleanty of helpful features but not too many making it clunky, overwhelming or hard to use. I use it as a backup browser. Whenever I just need to search something on the web real quick or if a page isn't loading correctly in Chrome, having this available on the fly comes in handy more often than not. I'm Danny, this is my REAL review (I'm an actual long time user of this app), and I endorse this message! 😉👍

I love it, so much faster than chrome or any other, I can't really think of anything that would make it better, maybe having gestures like swipe down or up to see all the tabs, or something like that. Also maybe have the option to keep all tabs visible like on a computer because I have switching between tabs but other than that it's perfect!

I've been browsing around for better internet tools and this one is definitely in my top 3! It's all-in-one is super convenient and I love how easy with just a flick I can jump around search engines. I definitely recommend this app to anyone looking for something easy to navigate for all your browser and search engine tools. It's a keeper in my book!

This browser is just one of eight browsers i run on my phone. I research heavily into many aspects of life and one browser with countless open tabs is sloppy to me, so i decided to have numerous browsers with a few tabs open. I have them listed in a Browser folder in order of favorites. This is my third favorite browser but number one in looks and design. This browser is beautiful but what holds it back is when you're on a web page and try and scroll back up it thinks you want to refresh the page. That on top of not having a video detector downloader is why this browser doesn't have the number 1 and 2 spots but nonetheless it is beautiful and fun to use.

This is one of my favorite browsers. I love it! My favorite feature might be the huge selection of webapps. Plus you can customize your home / new tab page to display your favorites. You're able to save articles for later by sending to reading list, and now you can save stuff for offline reading. There are beautiful wallpapers to choose from, as you can decorate your home page. Man, there's a ton of features, and these guys keep the app updated. I love it!!!!! You will too.

I have used the app/ browser for little over a month, and prefer it for it's up front speed dial, YouTube video download capability, and some other extras. Dedicated search engines are nice in selection, and make it quick to get to the informationsites you are seeking. To the developer: I would like to see the ability to add my own choices for search engines, in the main bar, though they can be pinned into your own speed dial,. Update: Still a fan in 2023, using Samsung S9. Five Star rating.

The very best browser but updates have introduced ads that take control of the screen. You have to exit the browser and start over to get rid of them. Totally unacceptable scam. I don't know if you are trying to coerce people to go premium but at least in my case, you have done the opposite. I have no choice but to uninstall. (I sent two emails but got no response) Update: Reinstalled the app. Worked for a while but ads have returned. No, the ad problem is within your app.
