How do I use a browser on the Gear VR?

[Rick_Moli0212]

Can anyone tell me how to download a browser for my Gear VR? There aren't any in the Oculus store.

Hi, within the store you should see the browser to download.

Samsung's Gear VR Web browser has exactly 1 useful function | Android Central

I'll need to wait till I get home to have a look, my wife has the S7 and I have the S7 edge - I have the internet app in the store, but I'll check her phone tonight.

The browser app is called Samsung Internet.

How are you looking. I originally downloaded whilst in VR mode via occlus store...not via occlus app running outside of it.

Hi - yes I checked and it was available to download. Are you connecting your phone to the VR, then heading into the store that way? we're not referring to the Play Store.
