Javelin Browser 4.1.11

Browse the internet easily using this neat application for Android devices
One of the coolest things about smartphones is that they allow you to surf the web easily and find information wherever you are. But for that you'll need a browser and Google Play Store is filled with all sorts of options that you can try out.

Javelin is one of them, it's a nice and sleek browser with many options and lots of features packed in a nice design and layout.

Sleek interface with plenty of features

When it comes to browsers, design is truly as important as an intuitive interface. Javelin Browser does it right, it comes with a sleek and easy-to-use UI that allows users to browse the internet seamlessly and with much ease.

The app doesn't come with instructions, but you wouldn't really need them as the layout is pretty nice and won't leave new users confused. There are some settings that you can do to the UI like change the homepage or change the default search engine used by the app.

Browse the internet seamlessly

The browser lets you surf the internet easily, by providing you with all the tools you need arranged into two side-menus on both parts of the screen. The app doesn't take long to load pages and you can share interesting content with friends on social networks.

In addition, the app lets you find text on pages or read articles in a separate mode that includes the option of increasing text size or changing the background.

You can also enable ad-block and have the app block advertisements and not show them on the page. Moreover, users can go incognito and avoid their history, cookies and data from being recorded and tracked.

Use tabs, bookmark pages and sync data

You can open multiple tabs and manage them in the side menu. But only up to 10 are available in the free version. Bookmark pages and check out your history in the same section.

Spirit mode lets you anonymise your browsing and bypass web censorship. You can access blocked websites at work or ISP, hide your browsing habits and enjoy super fast speeds on Javelin proxy servers.

But that's not all, the app also lets you setup a VPN and surf the internet via an anonymous and fast US server. Moreover, it lets you sync bookmarks, recent tabs and speed-dial between devices. The neat thing about this app is that it opens your recent tabs and pages, when you launch it so you can pick up from where you've left off.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
 

The interface is really nice, the app offers users access to all features on two side-menus and on a toolbar on top of the page.

Function9
 

It works just fine, providing more features than some other popular browsers it's definitely worth a try.

Security8
 

It needs many permissions from your phone, but it shouldn't pose any privacy issues.

Battery5
 

Consumption is really high, make sure to keep an eye on resources when using this app.

Price9
 

It's free but you can get access to unlimited tabs and reading mode if you upgrade to the premium version for up to 9.99$.

Compatibility7
 

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