This browser app also blocks website trackers. It also enables the private tab where you can surf the internet without saving any browsing history.

The Internet browser also comes with features like tab previews, automatic full-screen mode, integrated newsreader and more. The news reading experience indicates that the browser is built for the Indian users.
