Dolphin Browser Reviews

What Happened?!

Abbylovecats12

I was using the app for over a year and enjoyed getting to play my music in the background.The app worked perfect for my needs aside from a few crashes. But suddenly today when I go to use the app, a white bar appears on the screen and I can’t touch anything in the app. I was using the app yesterday and this didn’t happen! I thought it might be the IOS update but I had the app on my iPhone which is an update or two behind my iPad and it still happens. This is a huge disappointment. Edit: I decided to re download the app and this problem is gone, thought I can’t say if it will come back or not.

A promising but deeply flawed browser.

While this browser has some positive features that make it superior to other browsers, it also has many serious flaws that need to be addressed. Pros: This browser is fast and efficient. One of its best features is the ability to control text size. This is especially good when browsing the internet on your phone. More browsers should have this feature. Tabbed browsing is also excellent on this browser. Cons: Now here is the biggest game breaking flaw. The keyboard will randomly disengage when you are typing, sometimes causing you to lose all of the text you have entered so far. This is extremely aggravating and it ruins what could be the best mobile browser. The app will also not let you permanently delete the built in book marks. So if you delete them to make room for your own choices, they will randomly return and sometimes will end up deleting your personal bookmarks. I implore the makers of this browser to fix these issues. Dolphin has the potential to be the best browser for Apple mobile devices and tablets, even better than Safari.

Used to be great

This was my main browser for ages then it seemed like an orphaned app last year. Since it came back, it feels like a shell of its former self. I had an account breach last year and like I said, this was the only app I used to log in and since I found out who the developer is, I suspect they maybe getting logins. This app also keeps changing my search engine from google to yahoo. It doesn’t matter how often I do it, it’ll always change back to Yahoo. This app has gone from being amazing to being suspicious and annoying. The only reason I keep using it is because I’m weening myself into another browser. I’ve used dolphin for 3+ years so I can’t just jump to another browser but I no longer use it to log into any account I own. I don’t recommend this app to anyone until they overhaul it and show that it’s no longer an orphaned app.

I agree with others that they lost me. I hate when good apps go bad. Loved this browser at one point but now they got me running looking for something to take its place.

Oh how the mighty hath fallen...

My sentiments echo pretty much every other 1-star review. This used to be a great browser, but that was back on my old phone. Today I’ve transitioned to DuckDuckGo and couldn’t be happier.

This is virus!

After installing this browser, my iPhone started opening many Apps by itself, screen moves frantically by itself. I then uninstall it and my iPhone gets back to normal. I then reinstall this browser, the same behavior came back again! I now completely uninstall this browser, everything get back to normal and should never install anything from this company again. They put viruses in your system!!!

Update needed urgently

Awful

Dolphin used to be a great browser but not any longer. At least every other day for the past several weeks, I have to delete numerous unwanted Dolphin default speed dial settings and unwanted default bookmarks, and re-enter, re-type, and re-save all personalized speed dial settings because the Dolphin browser continually deletes and replaces the personalized speed dial settings. Despite my complaints to Dolphin twice during this period, Dolphin is non-responsive. Dolphin has offered no possibility to protect your personalized entries from being removed nor block their inserting unwanted bookmarks and speed dial websites. Due to repeatedly needing to fix these settings, Dolphin browser has now become untrustworthy and beyond aggravating and time consuming to use. Due to the repeated aggravation and Dolphin non-responsiveness and lack of support, I advise against using this browser. App version: Dolphin 10.0.8

Paid by Yahoo?

Epcott

I’m not sure if the devs are being paid on the side by Yahoo, or if by sheer negligence to fix a bug for several months... but it keeps reverting the search engine to Yahoo no matter how many times you make Google (or otherwise) the default. And months prior, all bookmarks vanished. Such a problematic browser. If support were consistent, I’d rate this much higher, since the interface is much better than Chrome and formats web pages better than Safari (which is why it at least gets 2 stars). Yahoo bug wouldn’t be so bad if that search engine wasn’t so subpar.

Once great but not anymore

I’m about to delete it. There was a time I would have paid for this app. Now its too frustrating to use even for free.
