Data privacy is one of the major concerns in today’s digital world. Knowing there is a browser that is privacy concern seems really interesting, no? I’m talking about Alpha Browser. This is lightweight, can give your data full protection, and also can optimize your viewing experience. There are lots of useful features like it employs multiple filters to reduce Ad and phishing pop-ups which is really amazing. Switching browsers means getting out from our comfort zone but I think it worth giving it a try.

What is Alpha Browser?

Alpha Browser is a lightweight, socially responsible, and privacy-conscious mobile digital content app. It is designed and developed to help digitally conscious digitizes (digital citizens) to optimize their viewing experience, prevent web addiction, and safeguard their personal data and privacy.

That means you can enjoy your full freedom in online sites without worrying about your privacy. Another thing is what I felt after using this browser is the look and feel is very nice. And you will get comfortable in a minute with this browser.

Main components of Alpha Browser

● It does not employ cookies, nor does it collect personal information and browsing history.
● It employs multiple filters to reduce Ad and phishing pop-ups.
● It employs a unique mechanism called ​Energy​ to measure the value of digital content in order to encourage the reduction of inferior content and prevent internet addiction.
● Energy​ helps to reduce the development of web addiction, once a user’s daily limit is exhausted,​ Energy​ must be replenished.

Sounds really cool, right? It gives us more usability and optimization. And also I think we can have more control over how we maintain our online life.

What do I love about Alpha Browser?

  • The best thing is for sure the ‘Privacy’. This browser gives full protection over our data. Also, it doesn’t employ cookies which is really great.
  • The second best thing is it reduces ad. I usually don’t like seeing ads and pop-ups. That’s why I find it really helpful.
  • And for me, the third is, if you visit the ‘Hot’ page of this browser and select any category you will feel that you are using any social media not a browser feed which is just mindblowing.
  • Another thing is what I feel after using this browser is what they are calling the ‘Energy’. Where we have to replenish our energy after our daily limit is exhausted. Which I feel can be really useful if we want to control the web use of our kids and teenagers.

Also, this browser is nothing like anything unusual. It feels like using what browser we are already using, no difference. And it makes me really comfortable.

What I feel less likely about this browser

  • I could not find any ‘web’ feature to use this browser. They have only a mobile version, which I feel lacking this app. Coz, I mostly visit online via my PC.
  • I’m not sure about the Airdrop and how can we get that. I didn’t find enough information on their site which can also be my lack of understanding.
  • Another thing is I’m not sure what the ‘Billboard’ page of this browser meant to be coz I never can load it or I’m not sure what the problem is, maybe it’s too slow.

My final Findings

To be honest I supposed that I am gonna uninstall it after reviewing it. But I couldn’t coz it seems so native, useful and comfortable to me, I think I can take the decision to switch my browser on my mobile. People who want data protection and enjoy their freedom of browsing can use this browser. Just download it you will get comfortable in a minute.
