No samsung browser on Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge

[robertopod1968]

So why don't I have the Samsung Internet browser? And I can't download it. Says not compatible with this device. Verizon s7e

Verizon is famous for stripping out the stock browser and there is no way to get it back either.

You are stuck with Chrome.

Play store... Download.
T-Mobile left out some Google play apps also. No issues

When are android manufacturers going to take a page out of Apple's playbook and make their devices hands off to the carrier.

It's not in the play store.

Why does Verizon care if people use the Samsung browser? SMH

By the way, how did you get your phone already?

Pissed about the browser. It's so damn quick on Note 5 Marshmallow.

Sorry... I read too fast.
I thought you said chrome was not installed.... My bad.
That's not good Verizon did that. The Samsung browser is good to have. It's fast...

For those who don't get on with Chrome , try Chrome Beta - I've always found it less choppy.

So it's a Verizon thing. Of course.

Just switched to Verizon about a month ago. I guess it's back to AT&T for me!

Search for "Internet" on the play store, I'm on a Verizon s6 and had no problem downloading it.

No dice

Most likely never since Android is open and Apple / iOS is not. They can avoid it by not selling through the carriers (like Nexus) but then people wouldn't like that either.

I haven't seen it on the s line in a while. If it is very high on your priorities then you can get a note 5 which has the stock Samsung browser

 

[gringoaplatanado]

Wow

Verizon never ceases to amaze me on how far they can go to make the whole Android experience so miserable, the little things...

Like I've mentioned a thousand times already, they keep doing this and that because their customers allow them to, in the name of "good coverage". I don't and will never endorse companies like this no matter how good their coverage can be.

Anyways, for those of you stuck with Verizon one way or the other if you want to use an official Samsung browser version, maybe not the latest one available for the S7/edge with the adblock intergrated, you can always look on Google for Samsung Browser APK. Or can try the one on this link, obviously you are responsible for doing it.

 

[robertopod1968]

That no work either. They got this browser locked out tight for some reason. I think you'd have to be rooted to install it. Must some how make Verizon a few extra cents by not having it on there. Ridiculous

No dice

Where did you even find it? It is not even showing up in Play Store for me.
