Hover Browser 1.0.3.4

Browse the internet easily using this neat and unique app for your Android device
Browsers are the first applications that you would need in order to surf the internet and get the information that you need. However, there are many such applications that can help you with that, Hover Browser is one of them.

It lets you find information that you need without having to open a separate application for that. The mobile browser works just like the ones for your desktop. You can open tabs that would hover over the screen, making it easy to access all of your other apps on the side.

Sleek design with some themes available

Not many browser apps come with themes for their interfaces but Hover Browser does. It lets you pick a color for the UI, so that you wouldn't get bored of the design and it would match the launcher that you're currently using.

In addition, the app comes with a tutorial that shows you how to manage tabs and access all features inside. The nice thing about this app is that it lets you open multiple weblinks within multiple resizable windows, letting you decide how much content you wish to view at a certain time.

Browse the internet using multiple tabs

The app also lets you import all of your bookmarks and history from your default browser, so you can pick up where you've left off. It doesn't take long to open webpages and comes with a shortcut to the menu on the top right corner of the screen.

It also uses animation for when you wish to view the content of another tab. You can enable full-screen and view content better or resize the window with a simple slide, but you'll have to be careful as the interface doesn't respond at times. Moreover, the app comes with the option of minimizing pages simply by tapping on the Hover icon.

Customize the app to your liking and use incognito mode

The browser also comes with incognito mode which lets you protect your identity on the internet and doesn't have the app record pages that you've visited. In addition, you can bookmark webpages or set any as home.

There's also the option of sharing links or making some other changes to the UI. You can change the default font size or enable geolocation to allow the app to access your current location. One shortcoming of this browser is that it doesn't reload your last visited pages after you close a tab.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
 

The interface is really sleek with some themes and customization features, but it does get non-responsive at times, especially when you're trying to resize pages.

Function8
 

The app works just fine. Still, it doesn't reload last visited pages, but it could surely use some more features.

Security9
 

It shouldn't pose any privacy issues as it only needs access to areas of your phone that are connected to its features.

Battery9
 

Consumption is really low, so you don't have to worry about the app draining your resources.

Price10
 

It's free of charge, no ads or in-app purchases whatsoever.

Compatibility8
 

It should work just fine on devices running Android version 4.0 or later, making it inaccessible to some users.
