About this app

We’re excited to bring you what our users have been asking for from day one of our Comet launch: Comet for Android, the first agentic AI browser built for mobile.

• An AI assistant in your pocket: Browse like you would on Comet, with your personal AI assistant one tap away to help you ask more questions and take action on the tasks you assign it to handle. With Comet Assistant’s expanded reasoning, you can see exactly what actions your Comet Assistant is taking, and step in at any time.

• Chat with your tabs: Users love Voice Mode in the Perplexity app. We’ve brought our voice recognition technology to Comet for Android, allowing you to chat with your Comet Assistant to find information across all your open tabs.

• Summarize your searches: One of the features people love most in Comet is its ability to work across tabs to synthesize information. Smart summarization on Comet for Android gives you the ability to summarize content across all your open tabs, not just the page you have open.

• Focus on what matters: Avoid spam and pop-up ads with a built-in ad blocker. Just like Comet on your desktop, you can whitelist the sites you trust.

Ratings and reviews

First I was using the Comet Browser on my PC, then I put it on my Pixel phone, and in the month or so, it has improved to where I really like it, and really like how it presents search results. You get a clean list of sites first, with an easy way to see more, and then a strong AI well-done summary underneath instead of on top[like my Brave Browser]. It’s nimble and fast, the layout makes sense, and it strikes a great balance between traditional browsing and an AI assistant layered on top.

Since this is an AI browser, it needs at least the basics when it comes to things one can do for security and privacy. I.e Like options to always open into incognito or an option to restrict open tabs to 1 tab at a time. There are other things I can't recall at the moment but an AI browser needs to cover the basics due to how risky it is.

Don't really understand what the advantage is if it can't sync with the desktop browser. I already have the perplexity app and can access perplexity with any other browser. I was excited to see a phone app, but it's useless as a browser without the ability to sync bookmarks, etc. Hopefully, sync will come soon.
