Bromite Description

Bromite is a modified version of Chromium that focuses on ad blocking and improved privacy, empowering users to reclaim their browsing experience. Its primary aim is to deliver a streamlined browsing interface devoid of intrusive privacy features while incorporating a rapid ad-blocking engine. To reinforce the concept of a browser free from advertisements, it employs minimal user interface changes. All modifications made to Bromite are released under the GNU/GPL v3 license, allowing other open-source initiatives to benefit from its enhancements. This browser is exclusively compatible with Android Lollipop (version 5.0, API level 21) and newer versions. Users can customize ad-block filters with their own URLs, eliminate click-tracking and AMP from search results, and enjoy DNS-over-HTTPS support through any legitimate IETF DoH endpoint. It features a perpetually active incognito mode, permanently disables all field trials, and deactivates smart search by default while enabling web searches from incognito sessions. Additionally, it maintains visibility for cookies, JavaScript, and ads site settings and removes binary blobs related to Play integration, while also employing Control Flow Integrity (CFI) across all architectures, with the exception of x86. This dedication to user privacy and performance positions Bromite as a powerful alternative for those seeking a more secure browsing experience on mobile devices.

    Newer Bromite versions are all Incompatible with my Tracfone LG phone that has not-upgradeable Android 7.0 (March, 2017), and the armeabi-v7a architecture.

    Edited: Nov 06 2022

    Summary: I used to be really happy with Bromite. Now I'm really mad and disappointed at how much time I've wasted, downloading newer Bromite-recommended versions that wouldn't even install onto my Tracfone LG phone.

    Positive: Older Bromite was compatible, fast, secure, and private. For some time between 1-2 years, I used Bromite as my one and only Android web browser, many times a day, every single day.

    Negative: Bromite keeps telling me that there is a new version, but new Bromite versions incompatible with the armeabi-v7a architecture that that my phone has!!!

    I've wasted LOTS OF TIME SLOWLY DOWNLOADING AND BEING UNABLE TO INSTALL MANY INCOMPATIBLE BROMITE VERSIONS that Bromite keeps recommending that I upgrade to!!!
