Ratings and reviews

This app's performance is overall good. But it is not so smart. Most of the time it doesn't show a suggestion at all while you are typing something to search. I think they should try to make the app smarte. Edit: Solved the problem. Another problem is that I can't cancel a search while it's loading. If I press the back button it takes me to the previous page. There should be a cross button or sth like that like edge or Yandex browser to cancel a search.

Can't describe how amazing this browser is. It has changed my routine online. It's fast, secure, and rewarding (pun intended). I'll give it 5/5 STARS if they fix my issue with it: I use it for reading and unobstructed experience is what is seek, it doesn't help when the bottom and top toolbars won't hide automatically. Before, I could just update the app and it'd fix itself. But this time I'm all up-to-date and still no luck.

It's fast and works well. 2 things can be improved to get 5 stars. 1. Fonts on some websites appear larger than on other browsers, this creates an unpleasant visual effect. 2. It would be useful the capability to switch the search engine directly on the search bar as other browsers do. For example, suppose that the results from the default search engine are not good, have the possibility to switch to another and reissue the same query
