The Lightning Browser

● The Most Powerful Web Browser of Its Size (0.2 MB) ●

Read the review by XDA

Download from the Play Store

Visit the source code on github

Features:
● Holo Interface
● Supports Froyo to JellyBean
● Tabbed Internet Browsing
● Fast Start Times
● Small Footprint
● Supports Adobe Flash Player
● Fast Browsing
● Smooth Scrolling

Enjoy Lightning Browser, one of the smallest browsers around. It is a high-performance small-sized browser built for those who don't want the cumbersome slowness or size of Firefox or Chrome. Currently it looks best on a tablet, but it will be optimized for phone sized screens soon. I will try to update this as often as I have time (I am a student...). This is my most major app release to date and I'm proud of my work, so if you have ANY problems at all, PLEASE contact me. I always respond, as those that have contacted with me before know... and I'm nice :)

Navigation:
● Long-press a tab to delete it
● Long-press the back button to exit the browser

NOTE: Currently, the browser is limited to five tabs... unless you change it in the source code

Upcoming Features/Fixes:
● Integration with Google drive (if it doesn't increase the app size too much)
● Feel free to make more suggestions...

Enjoy :)

The browser got mentioned by Francisco Franco on xda-developer tv recently. I'm making a good impression :)

Too bad the app community here doesn't seem as interested
