Thanks for creating and sharing this Daniel!
I just started to try it out, and it looks very promising.

There is one thing I am noticing:
When I open a 'favorite' bookmarked webpage, it will not update the contents of the page but it will show how it looked the last time when it was opened.

I will need to refresh the page manually to see the current content.
Is there a setting so that a bookmarked page is always updated when opening?

Thanks for the app!

I'm trying to install on Android 4.4 Tolino and it doesn't even install. Did you know any other browser of this type that works on older Android versions?

Hi,

I tried using the backup system to transfer my settings, bookmarks, and login info between devices. It looks like I have to...

1. Copy app settings by exporting app data, copying that file to a thumb drive, and then copying from the thumb drive to the appropriate location in the other tablet, before importing.

2. Copy bookmarks separately.

3. Copy login data by finding a list and re-typing everything by hand.

P.S. 3. does not work because I am clumsy, and not every site lets me see what I've typed to correct what I've typed...
