About this app

Puffin Web Browser is now subscription-based. In addition to the existing $1/month subscription, two new low-cost prepaid subscriptions are available at $0.25/week and $0.05/day. The exact price is subject to the tax, exchange rate, and Google's pricing policy in each country. Puffin's monthly postpaid subscription offers Android's standard 7-day free trial. Puffin's short-term prepaid subscriptions allow users to pay for Puffin only when they need to use Puffin.

The yearly subscription is retired, and existing subscribers should switch to the monthly subscription when it is time to renew.

🚀 Wicked Fast: With our cloud servers handling even the most resource-demanding web pages effortlessly, websites can load at incredible speeds.

🔒 Cloud Protection: All Internet traffic from the app to our servers is end-to-end encrypted, therefore making it safe to use public, non-secure Wi-Fi.

🎥 Flash Support: We constantly provide improvements to our servers, and the ability to view Flash content through the cloud.

💰 Data Savings: Puffin uses a proprietary compression algorithm to transmit web data to your device, and can save up to 80% of your bandwidth on regular web browsing. (Please note that streaming Flash content or videos requires more bandwidth than normal usage.)

Features:
• Unparalleled loading speeds
• Fastest JavaScript engine
• Ad Blocker Included
• Mobile & Desktop modes for a full web experience
• Download to cloud capabilities (up to 1GB in size per file)
• Theater mode for Flash videos and games
• Virtual Trackpad & Gamepad
• Adobe Flash Support

===== In-App Purchases =====

==== Limitations ====

Wow. Shocked to see this now requires a subscription to use. (Developers: Before you even respond about people pirating stuff, I don't care. People will find ways to do that. Also, it's not my issue since I don't have pirated things on my device and never will.) Kiwi browser is awesome, it supports Chrome extensions. I will be looking at other browsers as well. This is a rip-off.

Due to excessive pirating, Puffin now requires a paid subscription to curb piracy. Please download and subscribe Puffin from Google Play Store. The postpaid subscription is $1/month, and the prepaid subscription is $0.25/week or $0.05/day. These short-term prepaid subscriptions allow users to pay for Puffin only when they truly need to use Puffin.

This browser served me well in an earlier form. The tab system here works great and it looks slick. The flash player, what I actually got this browser for, is excellent, with features for games that are very useful. HOWEVER, THE WAY THE THING HAS DEGRADED RECENTLY (with time limits unless you pay) was what made me jump ship. I was fine with more ads as long as I could actually use this thing.

Okay, for a long time I really loved this app. But these updates have been upsetting. Why do I get and ad when I go to certain websites? It pisses me off, and creeps me out, that it's only a select few. I understand, Puffin employees gotta pay the bills, but god damn I'm sure you can come up with something better than this. Please either make ad distribution more liberal, or remove it. I understand that as a web browser, you look at and sell all my browsing data, but could you do it a bit more quietly? It feels creepy the way it won't play ads on most sites I visit and then BAM, one site generates an ad every time. It feels almost like the engine is trying to direct me toward certain sites, which again is unbelievably creepy. I either want an explanation for why ads appear on certain websites, or a proper, more random feeling, distribution. Thanks! I'd hate to find a browser to replace Puffin after using it for so long. It really is a great tool, and I hope this weird ad thingy can be fixed. :)

Thanks for using Puffin. In this release (10.2.1.51662), we fixed several reported issues. In addition, Puffin no longer contains ads.
