        Anonymous, 19 Apr 2018Which browser do you mean? This Amazon's "Internet" app? Or... moreBoth. You cannot fit a modern, fully HTML5 compliant browser within such a small footprint, except from specialized browsers for the embedded market ( such as NetFront NX, but that's expensive)

                      This nonsense has to stop, everyone gives the native browser/Chromium a different interface and call it a new browser. Even Firefox Focus does that. We need REAL new browsers

                        Via is a lot better than all the browsers these days. Small in size yet better than chrome and such.

                                2MB because it relies on the Android System WebView, which is Chrome. Original name though
