Ratings and reviews

There's a few things that need to be fixed but overall I like the browser. Being able to use extensions is huge. One of my main issues is when visiting a website with a different language, it doesn't auto translate. Another is Google news articles, I just get the same like 3 articles for days on end. And pressing the 3 dot menu to click "not interested" or whatever, doesn't work. The popup just doesn't show up.

At long last, ALL of the egregious bugs are fixed! Extensions work incognito now too. They're sometimes a little bit buggy, but they do the job well. You can rearrange tabs, and they show up in the right order now too! You can open hundreds of tabs, literally hundreds, and it almost never crashes. This is it. The best browser Android has ever been graced with.

Probably the best browser on Android, but one of the two most recent updates broke something. Tabs keep coming back when I re-open the app. I used to be able to press the back button on my phone a few times to close tabs and close the app. Now when I do that, or even manually close the tabs and then close the app, the next time I re-open Kiwi all of my tabs come back, even some that I closed long before closing the app. Please fix this?

What's new

Welcome to this new release of Kiwi Browser running the very best Chromium version 111.0.5563.104.

This version includes performance optimisations as well.

Enjoy!
