UC Browser 10.0.0.488

Browse the internet with ease and speed using this neat app
Internet browsing is one of the basic things you can do on your phone but you'll need a browser. There are many choices on the Google Play Store but only a few are truly fast and provide enough features for searching the web. UC Browser is a neat and fast internet browser that impresses with its ease of use and intuitive interface.

The UI could use an upgrade

The interface opens with a few tips for navigating in the app faster. It shows users that the menu is located on the right side of the screen. The address bar is featured on the top side of the screen, while the home icon is on the bottom.

Unlike some browsers, UC comes with plenty of themes to choose from. You can also change the wallpaper and background color. The app can also be switched to night mode, which reduces the brightness of your screen and helps save battery.

Browse the internet

The main page is filled with shortcuts to the most popular websites and users can rearrange them as they please or add some to the phone's main page. The browser also has suggestions of top websites arranged by category. So if you were looking for interesting websites, you can find them here. There's also an icon for your browsing history.

The toolbar on the bottom of the screen has everything you need to navigate the web. There's two icons for back and next page, tabs for multiple pages and it includes a shortcut to the incognito mode.

Sign up with an account and you'll be able to access opened tabs on other devices that you may use, so you may continue your browsing on the tablet or even the computer. The app comes with a bookmark section as well as the option to cover the whole screen.

Adjust image quality and enjoy the many add-ons

The great thing about this app is the many settings that can be done to ensure optimum internet browsing. The image quality can be changed in order to save precious data and you can have the app reopen tabs on start-up.

Other than that, you can enable animation and have the app change link color if it's clicked. In addition, UC Browser comes with a series of add-ons. It lets users share links with friends on other social networks, find words in page, scan QR codes, take screen shorts or block ads.

There's also an add-on to load Facebook faster or a widget for the home screen, which is really cool as it provides shortcuts to all your favorite websites.
