Is there a way to restore previous session after a crash?

Atlas just crashed and when I reopened my tabs where gone. I went to history to restore them and it was a bit bothersome to look all the links
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
I found a minor issue.

atlas has trouble recognising unusual top-level domains.

when I type com.google (yes that's a valid url, and takes you to elgooG) it searches for com.google instead of going to http://com.google/
[Android Apps and Games] Ultramanoid:
I'm not sure if I mentioned it before, but related to URL handling, Atlas can't set a file:///whatever as homepage, because it will add http:// to it. It does open local files fine though.
[Android Apps and Games] Sp33Demon:
I have been looking for a browser that would do all the things I like in one browser and this one works like I think a browser should. I am absolutely loving Atlas and it's a shame that it does not get pushed to the top of the Play Store search. It's been a while since this app was updated but it is nice to see the developer still relatively active here. If there are future enhancements, I'd like to request the ability to use the full screen button on inline videos. Play/Stop/Pause and transport controls work great but no matter what site or what video, the fullscreen button does nothing. Thanks for the great app and worth the $2.99 Plus version even though I don't need any of those features.

[MENTION=2954544]tliebeck[/MENTION] could you add a cache for the content filter?

right now the content filter relies heavily on the availability of the website containing the filter data, if the website goes down or is blocked the content filter stops working.

today I've been getting ads all day, as well as toasts telling me the content filter couldn't be loaded.
[Android Apps and Games] donpippo:
Happens also when force closing

Is there a way to fix?
[Android Apps and Games] ULELLA:
Is this app still under development? I'm using this as my main browser and I was considering to buy the full license but I don't want to fund a discontinued project (last update was more than six month ago). Moreover, in the last few days, content filter has started not to work properly anymore. It would give me the message "Content filter failed to load" every time I open any webpage.
[Android Apps and Games] h3110:
True.

This is a really amazing browser, but the development seems to be stopped...

What a pity!
[Android Apps and Games] Ultramanoid:
Check the thread, this is the last word from the developer :

Note that when he was working in Atlas, the same comments started to pop up on FX's thread about it being abandoned.

Restore previous session?

Hey, I'm liking this browser quite a lot and am considering purchasing it but before I do, I was wondering if the following feature exists or can be implemented :

I often swipe all my apps closed, including the browser and the browser I use now (cm browser) will restore all my tabs when I reopen the browser. The tabs will also be there if I restart the phone. Can it be done with this browser?

Thanks

This is the best android browser ever. Hopefully, the developer keeps working on it because it seems a little abandoned. What a pitty.

Show my support!

[MENTION=2954544]tliebeck[/MENTION],

Just found your Atlas browser and love it - I've been searching through all the browsers and could never find one that suited me (tried loads, UC browser, Habit, CM browser, etc ... loads!). I just wanted to show my support and also list a couple of feature requests if you manage to get time to work on Atlas:

1, Lastpass integration to allow Lastpass to sign into websites.

2, Swipe forward and back to navigate webpages - I love how UC browser on android tablet and Safari on IOS do this by animating the page across the screen. Could you do something similar?

Again, thanks for an awesome browser.

Regards,

Rochey
[Android Apps and Games] Evil Avnovice:
I'm hoping for the same. I downloaded this last week and LOVE the filtering capabilities. I'd love to see continued support if tilebeck can set aside the time for it.
[Android Apps and Games] toddyd:
As requested by someone earlier it would be nice if Atlas stored the adblock filters for longer so that it doesn't have to download them as often.

Also, I don't know if this has already been mentioned, but I would like "Add link to bookmarks" option on the popup menu after long-pressing on a link.

Still my main browser. Thanks tliebeck.
[Android Apps and Games] Yozil13:
Hi

First, I wanted to thank you for your great job, Atlas is wonderful and the best browser for android for me without any doubt!

Also I wanted to suggest you some improvement for it which follows

-Add the ability to play direct link videos in an external player instead of downloading them (for instance when I'm redirected to a .mp4 URL , Atlas download it rather that playing it..)

-Night mode

-Save webpages (HTML + Images or PDF but not with any website , I mean an internal saver would be cool)

-Ability to swap the two panels (tabs and quick settings , I think that for a right handed person, its better to have tabs at right..)

-Private Browsing in default settings

-The open bookmark setting should open in a new tab, so that it don't force you to reload your previous tab

-Ability to erase previously choosed private data when you tap EXIT

I really hope you'll take that in consideration , good luck and thanks again

When text is selected you can run "web search" but search is run by Google now, not Atlas. Can you fix?
[Android Apps and Games] aviwdoowks:
Great Achievement

This is very similar to the Maxthon HD browser

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49427137&postcount=1

My favourite browser if you discount editing abilities. I need chrome for that.

As I do for this browser.

The Maxthon's legacy is from Miren which I have posted in my signature link.

Thanks to the Developer.

brilliant and Great Stuff For Using This Application Quite good

I also use Firefox for better Internet and CMS experiences of Graphical Websites

Some Time I got an Issues Related to Comments Boxes and find disable .
[Android Apps and Games] 7ama Yk:
working smooth :good:
[Android Apps and Games] Watevah:
I just got Atlas today and absolutely loving it, seeing how fast it is, along with amazing usability I wouldn't mind paying a bit to be able to open more than four tabs.

Also it doesn't seem like anybody has mentioned the feature to open tabs where you left off after the browser is closed. I wonder why, it's one of the few reasons I am still sticking to Firefox and would love to see the same feature in Atlas.

And another thing that the developer should look at is making the tabs on the drawer more compact. I usually have around 10-15 tabs of Wikipedia open and seeing how huge those tab icons are has given me the feeling they could be drastically improved.
[Android Apps and Games] Ultramanoid:
I am using WebView 39 in some devices and 44 in others, and yet checking the user-agent for Atlas it identifies as version 35, which is strange since that version is not in my system at all.

Now that Google makes it possible to use an updated version independently from the system, other WebView browsers have been able to take advantage of it, hope Atlas can benefit as well.

Never mind, it is working as it should. ROM glitch on my side.
[Android Apps and Games] donpippo:
Any news?

I really need a way for remove entry from history, is full of about:*

Also tabs are not kept between reboot or force close.

Workaround

sqlite3 /data/data/nextapp.atlas/databases/History.db "delete from history where url like 'about:%';"
[Android Apps and Games] sordna:
Hi,

Lately if you click on some Google search results you get an intent:// URL that Atlas can't handle. Anyone else seen this?
[Android Apps and Games] Ultramanoid:
Yes. The only workaround I found is to switch to desktop view.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pt.joaormf.openwith

you can use that to open those links.

when you get an intent link you need to long-press it, tap share, choose "open with", and then choose whatever app makes most sense.

usually there's an "open in browser", "open webpage", or "open mobile page" link underneath the intent link though, if you want to open it in atlas.

it's a bit of a bad habit of google.

those aren't actually web addresses, they're shortcuts to android apps.

atlas is only designed to handle web addresses, so it throws an error when it encounters a link to an app on your phone.
[Android Apps and Games] Handsome Jack:
Used to be the best. It needs an update badly.

[Android Apps and Games] GirishSharma:
Yesterday I installed this browser on my oneplus one device using aosparadox 6.0 and radioactive kernel. When I looked into battery stats, it reported me around usage of 100 minutes and 410 mah consumption, which looks me very good, but today it is showing me 40 minutes and 320 mah consumption (double than yesterday); so is it correct or yesterday was correct? I did't installed removed anything, even I am on the same location so nothing issue in mobile signals and same net surfing sites though.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
did you visit the exact same websites?

battery usage can be a bit higher when loading complicated or large websites.
[Android Apps and Games] markpab:
Great shame this browser is abandoned, still the fastest on the market, stopped using it recently due to update to stock Sammy browser which allows 3rd party adblock app to be installed from market which makes it nearly as quick. Atlas still a great browser tho.
[Android Apps and Games] Ultramanoid:
Atlas remains surprisingly usable and perfectly capable of being a primary browser, one of only a couple that come without statistics or advertising code embedded, and yet are fully functional.

Keeping WebView updated to the latest version means the core of the browser is on the most recent code available, so no worries there either. Of course it'd be nice to get rid of the few vestiges from a 'holo' interface still present, but all in all, hard to beat in functionality and speed.

Without being detrimental to my good opinion of Atlas, that a two year old browser is still arguably the best for Android speaks volumes of the lamentable state of web browsing in this platform, a piece of fundamental software which seems to have turned basically into data mining and spyware, not to mention lacking in actual usefulness.

Even former champions of standards and browsing innovation are just a sad shadow of their former selves. Opera embeds statistics and advertising, Firefox got as far as to bundle AdMob for a while ( thankfully it stopped doing that, but is still loaded with telemetry and calls back home, and is the clunkiest thing to use on Android, their only saving grace that it is still engine-independent ). While most others just build a wrapper around WebView, add crapware and spyware to it, and call it a day.

[Android Apps and Games] h3110:
Can't agree with you more.

Atlas remains the primary browser on my phone. Its private browsing mode is superior to literally any browser out there.

I hope someday following issues can be fixed at least.

1. Buggy adblock.

2. Special URL schema handling, such as intent://
[Android Apps and Games] Prack:
Yeah the dev is busy with his file explorer app. Who knows if this will ever be updated again, it's been at least a year at this point.

A 2.0 version is under development presently...hope to have a beta out soon. Trying to get IAP fully ironed out as an option to buy the plus key (existing method of buying a separate APK will of course continue to be supported).

Primary focus of 2.0 is a rebuild of the UI around actual Material Design APIs (Atlas 1 was built before they existed). And quite a bit of bugfixing.
[Android Apps and Games] Prack:
omg its happening!
[Android Apps and Games] ratbags:
Looking forward to the update! One thing that irritated in original is that I use third party adblock so I've switched off content filtering but still get the filter loading toast messages all the time. If I've switched it off please don't load it!

you probably didn't turn it off completely.

Atlas 2.0.0.17 Released (BETA Channel)

Direct download: http://android.nextapp.com/atlas/r2017/Atlas_r2017.apk

Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.atlas

You must be part of the beta program to download the beta version via the Play Store. Visit this link to join/exit the beta program: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/nextapp.atlas

This release is a major overhaul of the Atlas user interface. Previously Atlas used its own code to approximate a Material Design appearance, which had quite a bit of nonstandard stuff in it and now looks quite dated. The 2.0 version builds on the standard Material Design APIs.

An in-app-purchase is now available to buy the Plus license key for those that want it. Please note that this is an *additional* option. The add-on license key APK will always work as well. No need to buy anything new.

Also note, to hide the "Upgrade to Atlas Plus" bookmark, go into Settings and uncheck it under the "Bookmarks" section. I need to add a long-press option to disable it as well.

Thanks for any bug reports!

(And below is just a repost of the 2.0 screenshot):
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
the address bar draws a little too much attention, but I'll probably get used to it eventually.

a bit more annoying is the animation when closing a tab.

tabs below it will slide up to fill the empty slot, and during the animation those tabs become unresponsive.

I'm used to being able to switch tabs immediately after closing a tab, so I now end up having to tap a tab multiple times to switch.

Worst-case will simply have to add the ability to disable animations. The tab close animation is the built-in animation in Android's LinearLayout so I'm not certain how tunable/improvable it is.
[Android Apps and Games] tliebeck:
Thanks for report, will try to get this corrected ASAP!

All I want to know is why do library developers think it's okay to throw IllegalStateExceptions (a runtime, unchecked exception) when things go wrong in expected ways? Still my fault for not testing this scenario without gapps, but really annoying nonetheless.

Thanks for updating this amazing browser! I've tried the beta version, and found that the default android user agent seems to be changed.

My old user agent is:

Now it was changed to:

This change cause some web site, such as Google, to display wrongly.

BTW, some special intents are still not supported, such as tel: which should be redirect to phone calling, but it always shows an error message ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME. Is it possible to support this?

Thanks for the great work! As always.
[Android Apps and Games] Prack:
New update looks great. One issue I'm still having is using this browser to add dropbox to FX. I'm able to log in to dropbox, click allow and then it crashes. Seems to work fine in chrome but not Atlas.

net::ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME

I tried both mobile and desktop modes. So far this is the ONLY reason I still have chrome browser installed. I would really like to find a solution so that I can remove chrome from my phone. Please let me know if there is anything else I should try.
[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pt.joaormf.openwith

I use that.

if I ever encounter an URL that needs to be handled by a different app I use [share>open with>intended app].

after the update I've been encountering some cookie/login problems.

my.nintendo.com often forgets i was logged in.

and on phandroid.com the disqus comment system doesn't recognize me as logged in, even though the disqus website does recognize me.

perhaps these 2 website problems are related, and atlas now has trouble remembering login cookies when a single login is used for multiple domains.

I'd like to have the tabs on the right and options on left panel if possible.

Atlas 2.0.0.18 Released (BETA Channel)

Direct download: http://android.nextapp.com/atlas/r2018/Atlas_r2018.apk

You must be part of the beta program to download the beta version via the Play Store. Visit this link to join/exit the beta program: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/nextapp.atlas

This is a quick trivial update to remove the dependency on Google Play Services that was causing crashes.
[Android Apps and Games] tliebeck:
I really want to convert FX to using an internal browser window to connect to DropBox...unfortunately directing it to another app has always been a major thorn.
[Android Apps and Games] tliebeck:
The user agent string is now built based on parsing the device's default and reconstructing it. This keeps the chromium engine version current at all times. Not certain what Google is getting stuck on there...is this the main google.com page / search results? I did want to thin out noncritical data...e.g. not really anyone's business what your Android version is.

And yes, lack of telephone scheme is *really* annoying, on the list!

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] tliebeck:
Thanks! Any chance you adjusted the text zoom size? In the right panel it's the first item under advanced. Setting it to values other than 100% can cause layout issues when sites are done correctly (it's there to work around sites that appear badly on mobile screens). This feature is also accessed via a three-finger pinch-zoom gesture, (i.e., it's possible to adjust it accidentally).
[Android Apps and Games] h3110:
With the old user agent, the Google's search page looks like this:

With the new user agent, it looks like this:

You can see the layout and style of the web page is different.

I'm running Android 5.0.2 on HTC One. I think the user agent should be kept as original as the device's default, because a lot of web pages will change the display style base on the user agent.

Anyway, this may not be a big problem.

Thanks for your great support!
[Android Apps and Games] tliebeck:
Tested this and it looks like Google is pattern matching off that version number being there. I'll add it back in. Thanks for detailed report!
[Android Apps and Games] Ultramanoid:
Still unable to launch, instant crash, and judging by the log, in-app billing is still the culprit… Hrm.

Bug report for v2.0.18 - when full screen mode is active, entering text in a text field such as Facebook doesn't allow the page to slide up with the software keyboard, so it ends up hidden behind the keyboard. If it's not in full screen mode the page slides up properly.

Cheers!
