I've never used this. I don't care how good it might be, I don't want to use it. I'm writing this review because the app has been updating itself without my permission. I've deleted all updates from it multiple times and set it to not be able to modify my system settings. It continues to update itself. I don't need around 400MB of data taken up from the updates of something I never use. Edit: ~three months later, still does the same thing, but now more aggressively! Thank you, Samsung chodes!

I don't know what you guys did to this app, but I sure know that your programmers you have there really excel, and put 150% effort into messing things up. You really have to work extra in order to turn an app that was working perfectly, into an app that is worthless. Buggy, cant watch a video without it crashing within 10 seconds. Every single thing that a person uses a browser for, has become useless. Not ONE thing works. Y'all have an amazing talent to mess things up. Keep up the good work

I don't know what happened, but ever since the update, this app randomly pops up after I unlock my phone. This is not my default browser. I have Chrome set for it. I went into the settings and un-installed the update for it turned off notifications and cleared cache, yet it still pops up. The only thing I didn't do was reset because I didn't want to lose years of things I saved. You all need to fix this. It's really annoying.
