Overall, pretty good. However, I have the app set to clear private data on exit, and it hangs on exit and does not close. UPDATE: the exit issue was fixed with the most recent update, but now the live video is choppy. I used another browser for the same video and it was smooth. Couldn't deal with the choppiness so after using this browser for several years, said goodbye and uninstalled.

Browser appears to have been converted to a Firefox Quantum skinned variant. Good that you can now install add-ons. But too many critical features were removed; no more Exit button that clears everything, searches against bookmarks with no way to disable, a bunch of unnecessary fluff on the start screen, and performance isn't there anymore. It also opts you into Human Web even if you'd opted out in the old version. It's the end of an era. Yet another awesome app, ruined.

Hello,
Thanks for reaching out and making us aware of the issue. We have submitted a ticket to our development team to devise a fix. As a workaround, you can close out of individual tabs by clicking on the "X" for each tab. If you ever need to report any other issues, please feel free to send us an email at support@ghostery.com. Happy browsing!

Basically a reskinned version of firefox but with built in ad blocking and privacy protection. I don't like Firefox's new tab UI and this uses the same one, but other than that, it's a good looking and functioning browser. PROBLEMS: if you're a developer reading this, there is one issue I've noticed on both the mobile version and the beta desktop version: Pages with downloads sometimes won't download no matter how many times you press the download button. Google drive, etc.
