Ratings and reviews

I love it on Android TV, best browser period, just works smoothly, doesn't look janky. However it keeps breaking, after 1.5-2 months the browser always breaks, will load nothing, or will auto crash after 2-3 seconds. I uninstall, than reinstall .. works perfect again, but now I have to redo all my bookmarks, and log its. I very much like this browser, it just doesn't work long term.

Since my last review, things improved. Thanks. But core issues I see needs improvement or fixing. First, No media controls for YouTube in full screen mode. Cant play YT in background. I am using brave browser and Samsung browser. Second, No account features like Google and Samsung to sync bookmarks & passwords (no Jio account login since I'm using Airtel). Third, adblock plus hardly blocks any ads. Add a better adblocker . Browsing speed is very slow like tortoise as compared to chrome & brave.

Jiosphere is a fantastic browser, but I would love to see an Impressive mode added. This feature would enhance the viewing experience by allowing videos to be displayed in a distraction-free full-screen environment. It would make browsing even more enjoyable. Please implement it in next update if possible. Thank you
