About

Lightning is a simple, fast web browser that focuses on design, security, and efficiency. It uses material design, doesn't track you, gives you lots of options to protect your privacy. It gets out of the way of the user. I built this browser because I wanted something better. Blocking ads is a core feature of Lightning Browser, meant to improve the speed and security of your browsing experience. Lightning's interface was carefully crafted so you can browse as efficiently as possible. Tabs and Bookmarks are all tucked neatly away in side drawers, only a swipe away, allowing maximum screen viewing with minimal interference from the browser's chrome. Dark mode, light mode, color mode, night mode. Anyway, whatever you like, there's a mode for you. By utilizing the WebKit rendering engine that comes built into your Android device, Lightning can ensure a swift, lightweight experience.

Web developers can follow WebKit's development, check feature status, and download Safari Technology Preview to experiment with the latest web technologies.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The browser is fast, secure, and simple. It has an excellent and versatile ad-blocker, unlimited tabs, and unlimited bookmarks. It is very customizable, and is very small. This is due to how it uses the Android System Webview app that is built in to every Android device.

Cons

  • Lightning does not have a global dark theme that will cover every site visited. (Other versions of the app do.)
