Been looking for a browser for more than a year that doesn't gather or store data, is stable and doesn't crash when more than 3-4 tabs are open, minimalistic, a few standard settings, and is fast. I've experimented with 6-7 browsers. Ive been using this one for almost a month now. It's the best one I've found by far. Thanks to the developer for this app.

No invasive permissions. Easy to close by clicking tab. Needs ability to add bookmarks to home page and force stop on exit to improve. More features than other private browsers (except tor, but less annoying than it). Probably the best browser for speed, loading, and features. Most pages don't load correctly. If not, there's shortcuts to reload. Wish the lettering could be bigger. 3 dot menu not showing on my android.

Please, I really want to love this - it's fast, the loading readout is great - but why no settings options, and why did you force me to have that celebrity death bookmark in my face all the time? Can't I remove it? I don't want a daily deathwatch, who would? This is a great minimalist browser, you could be hella successful with this because it has features a lot of people want, but with that bookmark being forced in it looks puerile. No one uses those Geocities death clocks anymore.

Well impressed with this lean browser. A bit quirky but worth persisting. I like the bookmarklets it's nifty and resource friendly. I would like the Find to be one simple click, not buried in a menu and when you long click a link, to be able to copy the text in the menu that pops up.

It used to be great, but they don't update it anymore. Annoying bugs and a dark mode that often hides the text of the web pages. I switched to Privacy Browser by Stoutner.

This is a really great app but I randomly glitches to black for some reason any help?, My other browser UT browser also does this. Is this a problem with my tablet? Or is it this program?

About this app

TRUST: Right permissions with no spying.
SPEED: No bloat with focus on efficiency.
FEATURES: Crash restore, undo closed tabs, infinite tabs & more.
FREE: As in no cost. Not for profit & not ad-supported but the sites you visit may be.

PLEASE READ
1) Uses a minimal user interface to conserve resources. If you do not like the screenshots or do not want to learn a new interface then do not install it. Interface uses ENGLISH ONLY.
2) If you do not like the app name or icon then do not install it.
3) TIPS section below has important info.

I wanted a trustworthy browser with features I need yet using as few resources as possible. I hope you enjoy it.

TIPS
• Cannot see the browser menus? See below.
• Close current tab by tapping its tab bar button.
• The "desktop" button allows you to request and view full, rather than mobile, versions of web sites.
• Swipe right --> to show bookmarks/history. Long press bookmarks/history to edit.
• One finger zoom: Double-tap and hold, then swipe to zoom.
• Undo close tab: Long press new tab "+" button.
• Choose a search engine for URL bar search: Long press "go" arrow.
• Bottom menu "exit" button is the only way to gracefully quit, and do things like clear history on exit.
• Adobe Flash support for most pre-Android 4.4 devices: Download Flash player from the Adobe web site & install http://tinyurl.com/4aflash
• Read through browser options and bookmarked help page for more tips.

CANNOT SEE THE BROWSER MENUS?
If your device has no menu button, you may be able to long press the device app switch button or back button. SHOW MENU GESTURES: Swipe up from bottom corner, OR swipe down from top edge of browser window. 5-finger tap screen to shows menus, in case all gestures disabled. Paid Pro of version of Naked Browser provides many more options.

Not concerned with privacy? Spying wastes resources (battery, bandwidth, CPU) and slows your device.

DATA
Naked Browser does not use data to spy, monitor, or even show ads. All data transfer is solely as a result of your requests & retrievals. Because Naked Browser is designed for efficiency, you may use more data simply because you can browse sites faster.

SECURITY
Naked Browser uses the Android WebView that's on your device to display web pages. All data requests & retrievals, all cookies, all passwords, etc. are handled by the WebView and Naked Browser does not interfere with the default behavior. However, versions of Android before 5.0 do not get System WebView updates via the Play Store, and there are known problems with older WebView. Android 7+ uses Chrome Browser as WebView, if installed.

PERMISSIONS
• Internet: ONLY for your web page requests & retrievals. Absolutely no monitoring or snooping, & ad-less too.
• File read/write: ONLY so you can save & upload files. Absolutely no other reason.
• View network state: ONLY to handle changes in network connectivity.
• Keep device from sleeping: ONLY to prevent downloads from being cut off.

CURRENTLY MISSING
Geo-location, which is in the paid Pro version, along with many more features.

Designed and made by an independent software developer named Tony in Redwood City, California, United States of America.

Thanks to Mike & Charlotte for all the alpha testing.
