TIPS
• Cannot see the browser menus? See below.
• Close current tab by tapping its tab bar button.
• The "desktop" button allows you to request and view full, rather than mobile, versions of web sites.
• Swipe right --> to show bookmarks/history. Long press bookmarks/history to edit.
• One finger zoom: Double-tap and hold, then swipe to zoom.
• Undo close tab: Long press new tab "+" button.
• Choose a search engine for URL bar search: Long press "go" arrow.
• Bottom menu "exit" button is the only way to gracefully quit, and do things like clear history on exit.
• Adobe Flash support for most pre-Android 4.4 devices: Download Flash player from the Adobe web site & install http://tinyurl.com/4aflash
• Read through browser options and bookmarked help page for more tips.
CANNOT SEE THE BROWSER MENUS?
If your device has no menu button, you may be able to long press the device app switch button or back button. SHOW MENU GESTURES: Swipe up from bottom corner, OR swipe down from top edge of browser window. 5-finger tap screen to shows menus, in case all gestures disabled.

Not concerned with privacy? Spying wastes resources (battery, bandwidth, CPU) and slows your device.
DATA
Naked Browser does not use data to spy, monitor, or even show ads. All data transfer is solely as a result of your requests & retrievals. Because Naked Browser is designed for efficiency, you may use more data simply because you can browse sites faster.
SECURITY
Naked Browser uses the Android WebView that's on your device to display web pages. All data requests & retrievals, all cookies, all passwords, etc. are handled by the WebView and Naked Browser does not interfere with the default behavior. However, versions of Android before 5.0 do not get System WebView updates via the Play Store, and there are known problems with older WebView. Android 7+ uses Chrome Browser as WebView, if installed.
PERMISSIONS
• Internet: ONLY for your web page requests & retrievals. Absolutely no monitoring or snooping, & ad-less too.
• File read/write: ONLY so you can save & upload files. Absolutely no other reason.
• View network state: ONLY to handle changes in network connectivity.
• Keep device from sleeping: ONLY to prevent downloads from being cut off.
CURRENTLY MISSING
Geo-location, which is in the paid Pro version, along with many more features.
Designed and made by an independent software developer named Tony in Redwood City, California, United States of America.
Thanks to Mike & Charlotte for all the alpha testing.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

User's Reivew
5 ★Excellent browser. Fast, lightweight, functions exactly as advertised. No unnecessary bells and whistles hanging off the app, just plain fast browsing.
5 ★i love the way this handles javascript! you can disable it in the option menus and long press on the refresh button to quickly temporarily enable it for pages that absolutely require it. really great for low resource phones
5 ★Been using this browser for a few years. Lightweight with ad blocking. Wish you devs would update the browser soon to support android pie so i wont get the not supported prompt everytime i launch the app.
1 ★wonderful and basic but I could not figure out how to set bookmarks. Yes, I read the description on this app. The trouble is it kept crashing so it didn't do any good to have it. Uninstalled.
5 ★Downloaded to my phone first...I was definetly skeptical as I have tried many that promise speed. I am happy to report this a definetly delivers. Just put it on my tablet as well...I am impressed!
5 ★Lightweight, fast, configurable. Great browser. Really appreciate this type of software. Thanks!
5 ★If there was one person who could find the proverbial 'something left to improve upon,' it would be THIS GUY!!.(said not with Selfie-Thumbs, but with Finger-Pistols pointing at the Dev). But then he decides you didn't really need that, anyway, and you agreed.
5 ★Simplistic interface, with plenty of customizations/options/settings with blazing fast speeds. Just started using this thing and I love it.
5 ★My spare mobile has limited internal memory space for apps and this is by far the smallest lightest browser I have found for Android that still gives a decent Web experience.
2 ★Not as good as puffin browser, cant play the computer games i play on my cell phone on this one. Lol. Was hoping it would have the same features but no. And no dif in speed from Google chrome.
4 ★A good browser with smooth interaction, my only complain is this browser some how cant access some site and does not support by recaptcha so you cant access anything that use recaptcha
4 ★fast, great features.. though i must swipe several times b4 the features pane opens at the bottom of the screen. Thats a pain.
