Waterfox: Privacy Web Browser Description

Waterfox for Android is the privacy focused mobile browser that puts you in control. Created fully open source, Waterfox strips out analytics, telemetry, and unnecessary closed source integrations, instead giving you a clean private browsing experience.

Unlike other Android web browsers, Waterfox does not have any analytics or telemetry that track your usage. It also does not use closed source SDKs or have sponsored shortcuts enabled by default. Integrations like the closed source Pocket read-it-later service have been removed. Additionally, all code related to Chinese censorship has been stripped out.

Waterfox puts privacy first. It blocks online trackers, stopping companies from profiling your browsing habits. It comes with encrypted DNS support using DNS over Oblivious HTTP to prevent censorship. With this unique feature, your DNS queries are hidden to avoid network manipulation and is the ONLY web browser to offer a premium feature for free!

In terms of customization, Waterfox will support add-ons so you can enhance your mobile browsing experience. It also has customizable settings for history, cookies, zoom level, and much more. You are in full control.

Under the hood, Waterfox uses the same lightning fast Gecko engine that powers the largest open source web browser. Pages will load quickly and websites will perform smoothly. Waterfox also supports modern web standards and technologies for the best browsing experience.

Waterfox is independently developed with a focus on user privacy and choice. There are no metrics or data collection happening behind the scenes. Waterfox for Android brings desktop class privacy to mobile.

Give Waterfox a try to take control of your mobile browsing, you can browse the web privately.

Comments about Waterfox: Privacy Web Browser Android Version

Waterfox is a good Windows browser, but the Android version has one glaring issue. Tapping on the three vertical dots brings up the option to clear history. However, even if you choose to clear ALL history, cookies and such still remain. The only way to clear all history (besides setting the browser to clear everything on exit) is by tapping on the Delete Browsing Data option under the settings menu. An unnecessary tedious process for sure. I hope the developers read this and find a fix soon.
Edit: Thanks for fixing the fullscreen issue. It works great now! Original comment: Exiting full screen videos is broken after the One UI Version 6.0 Android update. After exiting a full screen video the app does not properly resize leaving part of the web site covered by the nav bar and the phone icons on top of the URL/search field. I've used Waterfox on my computer for years and I recently started using it on my phone.
I love waterfox on my desktop, and the android version feels very snappy, but it is impossible to sync my tabs from one version of Firefox for Android to another. Granted, I am using an offshoot version (Fennec), but "Share all tabs" won't work, selecting every tab and then sharing it waterfox won't work, and even saving every tab to a collection and sharing that won't work. Please fix this issue and I will switch to this in a heartbeat.
