1. Anyway, whatever you like, there's a mode for you. ● Speed - By utilizing the WebKit rendering engine that comes built into your Android device, Lightning can ensure a swift, lightweight experience. ● Privacy - Use Incognito Mode to browse without leaving a footprint, download Orbot and turn on TOR proxy support to mask your identify and location, use StartPage or DuckDuckGo for your search engine, or disable settings that you think leave you at risk.
2. I built this browser because I wanted something better. ● Ad blocking - Blocking ads is a core feature of Lightning Browser, meant to improve the speed and security of your browsing experience. ● Design - Lightning's interface was carefully crafted so you can browse as efficiently as possible.
3. Search Suggestions, Bookmarks, History, User Agents, Reading Mode, whatever you need, Lightning does it. ● Open-source - Just as Android open-source, so is Lightning.
4. Tabs and Bookmarks are all tucked neatly away in side drawers, only a swipe away, allowing maximum screen viewing with minimal interference from the browser's chrome.
5. Lightning is a simple, fast web browser that focuses on design, security, and efficiency.
6. Head over to the repository on GitHub to contribute or translate. ● Free - Check out the paid version for AdBlock and Unlimited Tabs.
7. Whatever your concern, Lightning will try to help. ● Features - Full-screen, check.
8. It uses material design, doesn't track you, give you lots of options to protect your privacy.
9. Dark Mode, Light Mode, Color Mode, Night Mode...
10. All the search engines you want, check.
11. I believe that the best software is built when communities come together to engineer the best solution.
1. On export attempt it just returns error "sorry, bookmarks could not be exported" and a Google search, or FAQs, could not help...Though this browser is very good having features like auto-cleaning private data on exit, orbot support etc but what's missing is on demand loading of tabs like Firefox (loading a tab only when it is activated after opening the browser).
2. Doesn't play well with keyboards (tried 2) on an Android 8.Unusable to me-websearch of selected text does not open inside browser (I also used some time with settings to try to fix openibg of the links, all I could do is search with Google app or another browser which makes browsing inpractical).
3. The only downside is that the bookmark export and import function doesn't work properly - the title and URL lines are reversed - easily fixed once the problem is recognized.So so Google browser.
4. Only drawback is, when I close a tab by tapping on the (x) symbol at the top, the whole browser gets closed(although there are other open tabs).I used this app for several years on old phones, and loved it for its simplicity.
5. Bad.Very good browser, I prefer it to Chrome because it doesn't force me to have political news on my homepage.
6. Lightning is my new default browser for my Android TV box but the free version does not have ad-blocking.
7. Lightning is feature-rich like Chrome without the bloat, mouse-friendly like Firefox, and, best of all, it has options to offload certain links to external apps like YouTube that are better able to render content.
8. Unlike Chrome and most Android browsers, Lightning page navigation is mouse-friendly.
9. The new Lightning has both speed and great features.It doesn't work properly with Android 12.
10. Please fix this, it is the only thing keeping this from fully replacing my other browsers.I cannot import bookmarks from a backup file- not recognized.
11. It would be nice to have a whitelist for sites so that, for example, cookies from sites you trust will not be deleted if you clear the cookies.Best and fastest mobile browser I've used.
