Something happened with this latest version, the browser does not prompt for image uploads. While on Facebook or Google Photos and clicking the button to add photos, nothing happens. There's no screen that comes up to let you select photos. I have all permissions enabled and I tried reinstalling the app, and it works for me in Chrome. Please be advised.
Everybody can visit: ( BrowserGood. Com ) to install the best browser app. It's privacy, very fast and block ads. I use Dolphin as my default browser, but I have a question about an issue and I have turned to the support link from the play store. I always get "the recipients mailbox is full" and I have NEVER received a reply. This seems to indicate that there is no support
Used to be the best. Long time ago, it was perfect. Now the upper bar search engine doesn't give any hints after typing something, you have to manually open google page to get that. On top of that, it is now slower and less stable than chrome, used to be the other way around. Same with downloads, this was the only browser that could download 10 files in the background and still work smoothly (that was on an old 1ghz 1gb ram). Now it's a joke.
Nowhere near where it used to be, a big downgrade from when it first came out. Crashes all the time and can't handle more than 10 tabs at once, bookmark back up feature is horrible, and not to mention the ad block feature is the worst you'll ever find in a cell phone browser. I've been using this browser pretty much from it's inception, but my patience has run out now. Terrible! A joke of a browser.
I've used the browser forever and love it. Unfortunately the most recent update loads pages in desktop mode, i have to switch to desktop mode then back to mobile for it to render the page correctly. edit : I've now lowered my review to 2 stars because it's been two months and they still haven't addressed the issue that many of us are complaining about.
Update: 2 months have passed since first reported the crashing problems and still not fixed. Have used for many years and until the last update, I recommended it to others. But now it just doesn't work. Crashes all the time or just doesn't open at all. Has made itself the default for links from WhatsApp, which it cannot open or crashes.
After trying many very crappy ad free browsers, each with their own horrible problems, I tried Dolphin. It's stable fast and ad free! There are only two small issues I have found. 1. When you visit a site multiple times it keeps asking to put a shortcut on my home screen. No thank you, I'd rather use bookmarks. 2. If you use auto complete to fill in an address the trailing white space crashes the browser. Outside of that, 4 stars good job Dolphin Team!
The problem I have with this app when I select a phrase or name that's trending under the search bar it appears brings me to results of a search in which "null" was the keyword. This issue is minor and I don't use that feature often but it is very annoying. Seems like it would be an easy fix. One of my favorite web browsers though. Other than that small issue I think the app is great!
Been going downhill for years with annoying and shifty ad practices, but I stuck with it because the UI was convenient. Now even that's gone. The tabs at the top of the screen were massively convenient and no other mobile browser used that setup. Now it's been axed with no option to revert to the old design. Avoided updating to keep tabs, but had to replace my phone recently and have lost the last reason I kept this browser.
So I downloaded this as I need a browser that has Flash Player. It does not come automatically, so I can't access the site's features. Thinking it might be an Add on I clicked to get more Add Ons. I get a message saying WEB PAGE NOT AVAILABLE. It says check my connection but there is no issue with my connection. The app is clearly broken. Waste of time and space, uninstalling immediately.
Excellent app. I have been using for a few years. It helps me to prevent having to install Zuckerberg software on my phone. However, since I switched to my new phone, I cannot upload pics to fb. I have to switch to Chrome for that, which does not handle fb well. I tried to make a bug report but email could not reach the provided email address. Would love to connect with dev.
Full of bugs after the latest update (12/6/2020). App crashes once a day and wipes out all open tabs. App refuses to open/display web pages when you click on an ad in the search results, even if it's the page you're looking for. Random embedded Flash/Java scripts will not play. I've tried sending in 'support requests,' but they go unanswered. Switched to Brave Browser. Much better!
The exporting and importing feature of bookmarks is horrible. I synced my bookmarks to their cloud because I had to uninstall/reinstall the app, but after it was all complete, less than half of them were saved back to my device. I can see that all my bookmarks are still in their cloud, but it seems aa though it won't import them all back to my device. Don't even waste your time with sending an email to their support team, as they don't bother to reply back.
Love the browser, gestures make navigating through the Internet much quicker and easier. 👌 There is an issue however, when you use swipe gestures for your nav bar, which I often do rather than having the nav bar at the bottom of the screen and that causes issues with then keyboard showing up. I would sum it down to a softest problem, but found that hasn't happened with any other app. 🤷🏻♂️
Dolphin is my go-to fav browser! Unfortunately I'm unable to use it lately as page size is displayed incorrectly in both mobile & desktop modes, resulting in pages becoming cut off & completely unreadable. Please fix this! Additionally, color schemes in sidebars & menus along with a continual addition to the list of add-ons would be major plusses &, as well as going a long way in incentivizing the addition of a fourth & fifth star, would also be very much appreciated.
I like your browser a lot and use it daily as my only browser on my tablet. I would like to ask for two improvements though. The first is a much longer and more permanent browser history without having to sign into anything, especially not any kind of 'cloud' nonsense. The second thing is to remove the behavior where if you go back too many times in a tab the browser closes. That's not expected or wanted; there are already normal ways to close the browser. Thank you.
The interface is streamlined, and I have complete control of sitws I wish to visit. I previously used Opera mini, but recently it has become intense nagware and I have switched out of it. I also don't get false flag blocked to important authentication login sites like with Chrome, which was why I initially switched over and gave Dolphin a shot. Everything is working now, andbit's quick, simple, and clean. However, you almost had a 5 star, but the lack of integrity in your internal rating system was a massive turn off. I either had the option to "dislike" or give you "5 stars!" and that balls-out ultimatum raised my eyebrow into orbit. Try some less manipulative rating fishing and eat some humble pie next time, guys.
I've been a Dolphin fan for years, even through them storing its users' information twice, when it started crashing, when the tab push quit working, and through my bookmarks not syncing, then the whole browser not syncing. The straw that broke the camel's back was that, now, most pictures aren't loading. You've managed to lose a decade long customer due to easily fixed issues being ignored. Two stars for good Speed Dial options and Open In New Tab/Open In Background option, which is hard to find
This always used to be a decent browser, easy to use and reliable. Now seems to be an unstable mess! Probably 75% of the time now, it throws a wobbly and shuts down for no apparent reason. If I hit the 'restore previous session' tab it re-opens previous tabs, then shuts down again. Time to find another browser...
Latest update ridiculous - I'm now not able to see the mobile version of some of my key sites (Hotmail for example). Why do they do this sort of thing? I've tried re-installing this twice, it's slow and irritating as well as stuck in desktop mode. Think I've had about enough of this now. Gonna be uninstalling.
I used to love dolphin. I've been using this browsers for well over 7 years however with my new Nokia 3.1 plus it is refusing to restore my bookmarks. Every time I try it tells me there is a network error or that the app is beta mode and I need admin permission in order to continue. Needless to say, I'm disappointed after so many years of not having any issues.
I love this app a lot, including the design. I have an easier time using it than other browsers. The only thing I wish I had the ability to do is being able to save the title and hyperlink of articles to Microsoft word or other text writing apps, or email the desired news articles to an email account, or something. Thanks and keep up the good work.
Dolphin was a decent browser when I started using it but it has become completely useless. The web pages don't always load correctly even though they load just fine in other browsers. It's crashed on me a few times as well. On top of that I can't use it to upload images to the web anymore. It just stopped working like a web browser should.
Have primarily used this browser for years, but losing tabs 5 seconds after you open them, simply because you leave the app to check something else, isn't at all convenient, and definitely means making a change to another browser is necessary at this point. Maybe I'll return, if the problem is resolved, but only if other options don't pan out.
