Having tried the free version on a TicWatch Pro, I wasn't tempted to try the paid one. This app might work well with a set of pre-defined bookmarks (BBC "News" comes very low on my list of things to look at!), but searching was unusable. The default Wear keyboard provides no "enter" key and neither does the app. Appfour offer a different keyboard, but as far as I'm concerned that is just more bloat and more expense and where is the guarantee that it will actually work? (I didn't buy).

This app is.. alright but, the web pages are extremely oversized which can cause loading and scaling problems for the user. It takes about 20 seconds on average to load a website. It also drains your watch battery. I definitely wouldn't recommend using this on a daily basis. I only use it if I happen to loose my phone. I can locate it using the Internet from my smart watch.

I have just got a new smart watch and I wanted to use a browser on it, so I downloaded this. When I first opened it up, it seemed very slow and buggy. I wanted to look at the new so I opened up BBC news. As soon as it was open my watch crashed. Even though it very powerful!! If you have a low end watch don't use this app.

Would be much better with a zoom out option. Default zoom is unusable for some websites. Otherwise consider this a paid-for app and it works just fine. It's extra $10 on top of your $200 watch for a suite of polished apps that no other developers have bothered to make.

I am new to smart watches and recently purchaced the Huawei Watch 2. I was looking for a good app to for news feeds with no luck and so tried this. I am very impressed, for my use case BBC News, it worked very well apart from the obvious limitations of screen size. Takes voice commands, easy to book mark and works surprisingly well

This browser is unusable on wear os. When you want to type something in a text box, the keyboard covers the whole screen so you can't see what your typing. I was trying to search a webpage on Google, which took many minutes just to not have a typo. When I finally found the site I was looking for, the browser said I had to then buy it because my trial ran out or something. That's a pretty sad trial if it only lasts for five minutes of failing at using the keyboard. I mean, the keyboard on wear os is pretty painful to use. I'm using it to write this review in fact. But this browser wins a medal for somehow achieving peak pain when typing. Why can't there be a good quality simple browser for watches?

Please add a swipe down from top menu with tappable choices like refresh, go back or forward. I have no controls on my ticwatch pro 3. Once I'm on a page I'm stuck there until I close the app then it reloads to same place. Once in awhile I see the pull up menu from bottom or bookmark but it's hit or miss.

so i bought the flat rates for all the apps a year ago. now i haven't used them in a while so I uninstall it then reinstalled the app because i feel updating waists storage. Now i need to buy the flat rate again! I bought it before! I'm not buying it again! I tried linking my account but it didnt work. There needs to be a restore purchases option! and this goes for all the other apps too

I used to think this app was a really dumb idea, because what meaningful web stuff can you do on a tiny screen? But it perfectly fits a need for me. Every morning I use it to open my church's simple, text-oriented web page that gives the Scripture readings and saints' names for the day. By using the watch I need not juggle the phone and open Bible(s).

Your app isn't installed on my watch. Other apps, for example some games, are installed successfully. I think, that Wear OS doesn't understand, that your app is for watches, or maybe it's some bugs in your app. Please, fix it. Also I use your other apps, such as Wear Documents, Wear Photos. They doesn't work just like this browser...

App does not work with my SONY SMARTWATCH S3. It's impossible to synchronize this app or any other apps developed by appfour with my watch and phone. I try with 3 differents devices (2 phones and 1 tablet) I bought the complete package and nothing works.

garbage. just says "buy full version" when i open it an takes me to a page that wants my money. no i won't buy full version or ever use it recommend this when i can't even try it. i installed a link to buy an app. not an app. garbage.

Abd. Apr 1, 2019     

Even after paying for the "full version" you still have to pay for individual things such as watching videos.. The app as a whole is so bad and I do not recommend it

Dan. R. Sep 22, 2021     

Very poor, should explain that is doesn't work on samsung watch 4 classic as iv purchased the full version and then found out it doesn't support my watch. Should let you know straight away. Waste of money don't download it.

Vin. v. H. Jan 2, 2022     

It says that it's compatible with ALL smartwatches. Well it doesent work with my LG urbane. (W150) It has the highest version it supports. (Wear os 2.35.0, Android OS 7.1.1.) Please fix this.

Par. R. Jan 26, 2020     

it is very nice app and does not evil and when ise to anything as compared to the other browsers when I use other while the keyboard always goes in upward direction of the screen and voice typing is really difficult and lives there are a lot of a sister like we can do typing by voice in typing also comes in middle of screen so I will surely prefer this happen the speed is very good

FUT. U. Jul 23, 2020     

Update: the browser is now working ok on a Fossil Q Explorist watch Gen 4 and HTC ONE M9 I updated this review from one star to three as it now works, there are some glitches where it takes quite a while to load webpages but generally seems to work ok now. Old update: 16/07/2020 Browser not working on fossil q explorist.. Keeps crashong. I paid for this app and it does not work can I get an update that will fix this or a refund?

IF. Y. Sep 14, 2021     

Just bought the premium version and found out it still doesn't support scrolling webpages with the rotating bezels on galaxy watch 4 classic, where this hardware has been around for years. Such a pain and pity. Hope they will update this soon.

Jos. L. Feb 7, 2022     

It says this browser is compatible with Fossil q wander and explorist in the description. And when I installed it on both watches and it says it's not compatible.

Ror. S. Jul 29, 2020     

Paid for the lifetime flat rate to remove the continuous ad. I had to reset the watch to pair it with a new phone, and now the ad has returned and is requesting that I pay again. Please fix.

I have the ticwatch pro. This is very slow to run And even with the large screen is hard to navigate.

Ben. B. Jan 5, 2019     

The keyboard appears to be missing the colon key and there is no way to insert it additionally the keyboard is too high up on the screen not at the bottom of the page like it should be.

Max. B. Nov 11, 2020     

Broken. Doesn't work - like other apps from this company. Very disappointing. Wear os seems to have no reliable browser, YouTube player. No Google calendar.

nik. p. Feb 19, 2021     

I purchased full version on Fossil gen 5 and it is not working and asking for another payment to get full version. I want my money back. Please help me or this thing could go wrong.

Ste. W. Aug 7, 2020     

An extremely limited demo, shows one page, covers it with an ad. Not even a good demo, really.

Adr. P. Sep 12, 2021     

Free version but it won't let you use it unless you buy it, everywhere you click redirects you to the purchase screen.

Lan. K. Mar 24, 2020     

Seems decent except how do you delete browser history on this app? It seems to stack alo of websites. I only see the option to add and remove bookmarks but that's all. If you can explain this to me I'll give more stars :)

A. G. u. Jan 1, 2019     

garbage this app constantly forces me to purchase pro when I can't even use the app, not only that it freezes my watch up and causes battery drain.
