About this app

Yandex Browser — stylish and secure, with voice search and data compression.

Get rid of annoying ads on websites by integrating third-party blocking apps with ad blocking.

Protect your personal data when using public Wi-Fi networks and stay away from harmful or fraudulent pages with the browser’s active security system Protect.

Hide unrelated interface elements — ads, site menus, buttons, or widgets — and leave only the relevant text and accompanying images on the screen with Reader Mode.

Surf the web in private using Incognito Mode — Yandex Browser will not keep track of your passwords, search queries, or browsing history in this mode.

Customize your Yandex Browser with a wide array of backgrounds in the wallpaper library to suit any style or mood.

Access your favorite websites and bookmarks on any of your devices — just allow syncing of your data via your Yandex account.

If you have any questions or suggestions, you can contact us straight from the app, or via https://browser.yandex.com/feedback.

Sleek, quick, easy to use, and secure. What more could you ask from a browser? Synced in seconds with my other Yandex apps so I didn't even need to log in, and the ability to see tabs on other devices can make it very easy to continue where you left off on your PC. Light and dark themes, many different wallpapers for the home screen, a customizable widget and a tableau that auto-updates makes it one of the best when it comes to customizablilty. All in all, an amazing browser! Ⅰncredible job!

Amazing browser. Just wish the currently open tab had a different color but regardless of screen orientation, it it always the first one anyways. Also, you can use the chrome web store to add extensions to it! Pretty much all of them work. The video downloader extensions have helped a great deal for me. Even though this is based off the same chrome that comes with your phone, you can do pretty much anything the desktop version can do. The default chrome is no fun after installing Yandex!

Seems like a solid browser but has a few minor issues. I'd like to be able to install an ad blocking extension as the built in ad blocker isn't good enough for me. I also noticed the weather widget on the homepage doesn't let me change the location. I wish it had a more customizable homepage. Sometimes when using the app, especially when using the default search engine, there are translation issues. This is definitely a browser to watch, very interesting.

Our browser currently supports only AdGuard Content Blocker and Adblock Fast. You can read about these extensions for blocking ads on the Help page: https://ya.cc/block_ads_en . You can go to the browser menu → "Settings" → "Location" and select your location manually. Is the weather ok now? Thanks for the wishes!
