Vivo Browser is a free communications application for mobile from PT. Vibo Mobile Indonesia. It's a web browser that is specifically created for use with Vivo-branded devices. With it, users can enjoy exclusive features and optimization that the popular manufacturer has developed for its range of smartphones and tablets.
Similar to other browsers like UC Browser or Kiwi Browser, Vivo Browser also aims to provide fast browsing without skimping on features that help make the experience better and more intuitive. It also has built-in security features and a social feed to read up on news and entertainment.
For Vivo owners
It's not uncommon for manufacturers to offer value-added apps and services to owners of their respective devices after purchase. Popular brands like Samsung or Xiaomi have been doing it for a long time now, and others are starting to follow suit. One such company is Vivo, and to complement the functionality and user experience of its OS overlay, it released the Vivo Browser.
As its name suggests, Vivo Browser is the company's take on a mobile web browser for its devices. It boasts a clean and modern user interface with a built-in ad blocker and private mode for added security and privacy. You can also set up multiple home screen shortcuts, so you can navigate to your favorite sites right away whenever you open the app.
Another notable feature is a news and entertainment feed that lets you browse through the latest events around the world, as well as trending videos across the web. Now, being available for free, the app does come with ads that appear as you use it. Unfortunately, they can be too much and become obstructive at times, detracting from the user experience.
A decent value-add
To conclude, if you're a Vivo user and are looking for a new web browser to try out, Vivo Browser is one option you can consider. It's fast and offers a decent amount of features and options that will meet most of your needs. The ads can be distracting at times, but aside from that, it's worth checking and seeing for yourself.
