1. Enable developer mode on your Android phone.
  2. Download Webview Beta/Developer.
  3. Change the webview version you are using to beta from the developer settings.
  4. Install Berry browser for your casual browsing ( configure it at high security and privacy settings).
  5. Install Fulguris browser for the websites that require Low/med privacy and security settings.
  6. Set your default browser as Berry browser.

I thought I share this here for people who like the UI of Firefox but hate it’s performance and like chrome performance but hate its UI.

In case you wanted to use any web apps, you can use Native Alpha app.

Please comment if you know of any light(under 20mb) browsers that has good UI, to improve my current setup even further.

    The best way to browse on your Phone is on Firefox with its massive collection of extensions (that arent neutered to google’s liking).

    Firefox’s not perfect or the fastest, but I can wait a few ms for it to be actually useful.

    Why not use Privacy Browser? Its Foss and has many settings to limit the amount of information being sent by default. Firefox may not be super fast but still does the job much better with addons like Ublock-origin Also, most people do not hate the UI. Rather the tracking from google.

    I would also be careful with using closed webview based apps since you won’t know if they sellout untill a ad update gets pushed to you. Here’s a post by Privacy web author about one such email: https://www.stoutner.com/stoutner-will-never-sell-privacy-browser-to-a-scummy-company/

    That’s pretty specific. What kinds of things are you doing that are impacting performance? Never had that issue with any mobile browser
