Ratings and reviews

Saw some dipstick saying they could no longer take screenshots, and I'd like to inform all that may be the case, but you can certainly fix it. Somewhere in the settings there'll be a new security feature, and within that setting you'll find check boxes so you can physically disable screenshots, your mic, also the ability to cut and paste text or images. Sucks that they turn it on by default, but better safe than hacked through your browser window.

Almost perfect! I love how Samsung browser still allows you to actually change your homepage! However, I had to remove 2 stars because there is no way to change the "theme". Luckly, you can set sites to show normally, but the rest of the browser is jet black, making the text barely readable and an eye sore. Setting the brightness on your phone to maximum while altering the settings is sadly a requirement to see what you're doing. Other than that, it's a great browser.

way too many ads for my taste. It became to difficult to navigate for me. I didn't use it as much as I could've or maybe should have. Just Too many ads with, in my oppinion, intentions of deceptive techniques. Like wording, or lawyer talk type, fine print that doesn't say what the typical customers can understand. Thus it appears, to me, as deceptive.
