Most Android users end up using the default Chrome internet browser. However, it is good to know that many more browsers in the Play Store are also good to use, and some offer many other useful features. Samsung Internet 15 has just come out of beta and offers many more security features, making it one of the best you can find.

Samsung Internet 15 bundles a few features that Chrome doesn’t offer in its menu, along with several security enhancements. With privacy being a major priority of most Android users, the Samsung 12 browser focused on additional security measures to offer even more privacy to users. With that in mind, Samsung is building two new features into its browser. The Samsung Internet 15 now sports anti-tracking technology. This feature protects users against fingerprinting while browsing. The ‘Delete Browsing Data’ menu has also been expanded to give more options and now includes examples of what each option clears.

There have also been changes made to how Samsung’s Secret mode works. Secret mode is similar to Chrome’s Incognito mode. However, the Secret mode has now been changed so that once you enable Secret mode, it will stay on by default even when exiting the app. This is not currently the case with Chrome Incognito.

However, it’s important to note that this final release not only includes privacy and security updates but features other valuable updates as well. One of these consists of a new search widget for your home screen that looks a lot like Google’s search bar. The latest release also temporarily caches and stores web pages that you’ve visited, making re-visiting them much easier, and load times will be faster.

When taking a quick look at the app, it appears that all the elements released in the app teaser have made it to the final release version. Features included are the search widget mentioned above, anti-tracking, improvements to private browsing, and expanded options for deleting your browsing history.

Closing words

The Samsung Internet 15 browser sets itself apart from other browsers with a strong focus on privacy and security features. This browser is making waves and might prove to be a strong competitor against Chrome for Android devices. I appreciate the anti-tracking features and the fact that Secret mode stays enabled even aft

    If Nothing OS is nothing more that an overlay with Google still in the midst….then I ain’t interested.

    Apple was forced to add USB-C to a phone and the maccultists start talking about “revolution” and “paradigm shift” (as if USB phones had never come out before). It’s so ridiculous it’s reminiscent of comedians doing the “stepped on a water hose” stunt – that was at least somehow funny a hundred years ago.
    Reading this on a site that used to be a technical resource is especially ridiculous.
    How pathetic

    “An iPhone 15 with a USB-C port will mean more than you think”

    That Apple can finally stop hindering progress if spanked hard enough ?

    I’m thrilled to see Instagram taking steps to enhance the user experience with features like Live Activities. This update is a game-changer, especially for those who frequently upload content on the platform.

    The ability to track upload progress in the background is a simple yet incredibly useful addition. It not only keeps users informed about the status of their uploads but also allows for a more seamless experience on the platform. No more constantly checking if your post has successfully uploaded or worrying about interrupted uploads due to a weak signal.

    As an active Instagram user, this feature is a relief. It showcases Instagram’s commitment to improving user satisfaction and addressing common pain points. It’s all about making the platform more user-friendly, and this feature certainly accomplishes that.

    I can’t wait to try out Live Activities and enjoy a stress-free posting experience. Kudos to Instagram for continually innovating and making our social media lives easier!

    Keep up the great work, Instagram, and thanks to ghacks for keeping us in the loop with the latest tech updates!
