Ratings and reviews

I used it as my default for a week and there are too many bad ideas about how the menus show, extra clicks to do everything, then if you mispell a word you're f'd and have to start over since the original search bar will stay with the long version of your search, book marks require a click to btj g up the menu, everything is an extra click. Search results were better than most. I found myself using Google even though it's turned off. Just a terrible layout.

Current mobile version has a very very serious problem of spontaneously closing. It's been happening too often and I've lost count how many times I was forced to redo my tasks during said closing. I am a bit disappointed since I've been using it before the icon change. I hope herond fixes it.

Great browser with so much potential. Would rate it higher if only the bottom bar was customisable (to add/remove buttons).
