Best. browser. ever. I've tried tons of other browsers & nothing comes close to the combination of speed & functionality of Kiwi. The ability to use Chrome add-ons/extensions is super useful to block ads & to optimize your web experience. Power users will love it. I have hundreds of tabs open & that doesn't cause any serious issues. I've been a diehard Firefox user for decades but I have to say that Kiwi is superior. šŸ†

The single best Chrome alternative on Android, Kiwi gets 5 stars by having no actual competition and by Google being a massive slacker and not giving Android users extensions on Chrome (which is the original reason i came to Kiwi). Kiwi has extensions, a built-in adblocker, and a lot of customization. One problem, however, is that you cannot transfer settings or data between devices, so make sure to remember your passwords!

Not all Chrome extensions work, and it is a learning process to figure out which ones do work, unlike Firefox, which filters out extensions that don't work on mobile. Microsoft Edge is also coming out with extensions for the mobile version. Kiwi Browser is not seamless for this reason. The default tab switcher is irritating to look at, and use. Fortunately, you can change to other styles. Overall, a decent browser, but I just think there are other browsers are polished, and nicer looking.
