Stable version of the private Tor browser is now available on Android

VPN and incognito mode allow you to achieve a certain level of anonymity on the Internet, but if you want more privacy, then you will need other software solutions. One such solution is the Tor browser, which is out of beta and available to all users of Android devices.

Stable version of the private Tor browser is now available on Android

The basis of the browser in question is Firefox. This means that the interface of the application is familiar to many users. Supports tabbed browsing and many of the familiar features that standard Firefox has. The difference is that Tor does not connect to websites directly, but uses several intermediate servers between which user requests are sent. This approach allows you to hide the real IP address of the user, as well as other identification data. Another important difference is that the Orbot proxy client, which previously had to be downloaded and configured separately, is built into the browser itself. The user does not need to launch it separately every time, since it starts functioning automatically when Tor is opened.  

Tor Browser can be very useful as it can bypass geo-blocks. In addition, the program will allow you to get rid of annoying ads, since websites will not be able to collect data based on which relevant content is shown to users.

As for the lack of a version of Tor Browser for the iOS platform, according to the developers, Apple is blocking the necessary computing processes, thereby forcing browser manufacturers to use their own engine. To obtain a high level of privacy when browsing the Internet, iPhone and iPad owners are recommended to use Onion Browser.
