About this app
Every browser today wants to remember you, learn from you and suggest things to you. Lean Browser does the opposite: it is simple, it is not "smart", and it remembers nothing. It is a browser for people who want to be forgotten.
Forget everything
• Your browsing lives only in memory. Leave the app and everything is erased: tabs, cookies, history, logins.
• Choose when: immediately, after 1 minute (default), after 5 minutes, or only when you close the app.
• Tap "Erase now" at any time: the screen dissolves like dust, then a card shows what was forgotten, e.g. "Forgot 37 cookies, blocked 120 trackers".
• Panic gestures: shake the phone or turn it face down to erase instantly (each can be turned off).
• Self-destructing tabs: set a tab to close itself after 1, 5 or 15 minutes.
• Share your forget card: it only ever shows numbers, never the sites you visited.
Blocks the noise
• Built-in ad and tracker blocking, on by default.
• Blocks pop-ups and third-party cookies.
• Removes tracking parameters (utm, fbclid, gclid…) from links and prefers HTTPS.
• Sends the Global Privacy Control signal to websites.
• Warns you when a page asks for a password, and asks before downloading any file.
Simple by design
• No AI, no suggestions, no feeds, no news, no autocomplete.
• Up to 5 tabs, each one isolated from the others.
• Control panel: turn JavaScript, images or video on and off for every page, or switch to reading mode in one tap.
• Anti-peek: blur the page until you touch it, for when someone is looking over your shoulder.
• Address bar at the bottom, buttons hide while you scroll.
• Lock with fingerprint or face when you come back to the app; the app is hidden in the recent apps screen.
• Home screen shortcuts and a widget to start a fresh session in one tap.
Transparent
• No account, no analytics, no data collection. Only your settings are stored on the device.
• Clear privacy policy: https://leanbrowser.homielab.com/privacy
Good for people who share or lend their phone, who look things up they would rather keep to themselves, or who are simply tired of browsers that track and distract.
Lean Browser reduces what is stored on your phone and what websites can track, but no browser can make you completely anonymous: your network provider and the websites you visit can still see your connection.
Lean Browser is a web browser and gives access to any site on the internet, so it is intended for users aged 17 and over.

The browser that forgets. No history, no trackers, nothing left behind.
