Tor Browser Customer Insights

1. So far I'm impressed and quite taken back by the efficiency with which it displays, plus the settings are at your fingertips with no articles and 20 step procedures and protocols to forgetThis is my go to browser, it could be a bit more user friendly at times, but I have been using this browser for years, and it has been consistent, and dependable! Knowing that I can safely surf the web without being tracked, spammed, or counted for some corporations statistics takes alot of the stress out of the the technology that seems necessary for every day life....App repeatedly crashing upon attempted opening.

2. Once a great resource, great, going commercial has wrecked the uniqueness & advantages it had once offered.Good browser for anonymity and privacy, but pretty slow.

3. after which it will not crash anymore, or at least it didn't for me.On a computer, this browser is probably great, but on my Galaxy phone it's a liability that doesn't justify having it.

4. I do like that it is built on the Firefox browser which is better than Google Chromium since Google is not great for privacy.Works well for accessing the Tor network.

5. Not sure if this is a bug or a sacrifice in the name of anonymity and security, though since Orfox was able to save images just fine, I'm hoping it's the former.I am now of the opinion that one cannot use only one browser.

6. Side-loaded previous version and found that the ONLY thing this browser does better than Orfox is load pages faster.

7. Nice appearance, easy to get up & running, great security settings, enough options for comfortably, and a bundle of add ons to customize it.

8. It is cumbersome when loading, extremely slow, if you're looking fo continuity when switching over it doesn't open to the page or application you were on, you have to start over.

9. I don't like the fact that it doesn't automatically connect to the Tor network and you have to press the button to connect.

10. I installed the latest version of the app and, as many recent reviewers have stated, the app opens for a second and immediately crashes.

11. I understand that the privacy features make the browser slower, but they should optimize it so it could be a little faster.
