I don't know if it's just me, but when I search for an extension on the chrome store, I can't select any of the auto fill suggestions. It's like I pressed enter, even though I tapped on one of the suggestions. The keyboard also starts after making a search. I know these are minor issues so it's cool if the dev can't fix them.
[Android Apps and Games] IamTheBRAVE:
If possible, can i make a another suggestion? Please add a reset/clear/delete button in search engine menu.

I have a peculiar problem that i could only solve by clearing data in app info.

My SE of choice is yandex, (.com not .ru) it has one parameter that is not by default (&lang=en )so i have been trying to set it. when i go to yandex.com, kiwi registers that as a new custom SE. But when i modify the url later it does not notice the difference and keeps opening the default page.

in order to get it right, from the start i have to enter the modified web address manually so kiwi registers it otherwise I need to wipe the whole app and start again.

This is not a big problem, i have everything set up right now.

And again a big Thank You for the best browser ever :good:

File: '/data/data/com.kiwibrowser.browser/app_chrome/Default/Preferences'

Entry:

"default_search_provider_data"

"search_provider_overrides"
[Android Apps and Games] IamTheBRAVE:
Thanks for the suggestion. This is what i got:

"default_search_provider":{"synced_guid":"f959b2b2-b770-4e6a-a3ba-ef665fe9a40a"},"default_search_provider_data":{"template_url_data":{"alternate_urls":[],"contextual_search_url"

Later on i got this:

suggestions_url_post_params":"","synced_guid":"f959b2b2-b770-4e6a-a3ba-ef665fe9a40a","url":"https://yandex.com/search/touch/?text={searchTerms}&from=os&clid=1836588",

Which is the default url. If i modify that line will it modify only suggested search terms or the whole search engine?

Also i can't see "search_provider_overrides" can i just add it?

Thanks for your help.
[Android Apps and Games] gdgsdg123:
The whole search engine.

"search_provider_overrides" is not as important, it only defines the search engines available for overrides (to replace as default).

Hello [MENTION=9196003]arnaud42[/MENTION]. Thank you for your work on the Kiwi web browser. It is progressing rather well.

I do have some requests. Please let me know if you have any questions:

Allow more time to undo tab closings and/or provide another mechanism to restore closed tabs. I believe that the addition of a confirmation prompt to the selection of the "Close all tabs" option to be a good option. Oftentimes, tabs may be closed by accident, especially when working with large fingers on a small, high resolution touchscreen display. While there currently is an option, immediately after closing a tab or all tabs, to restore the closed tabs, it appears for a very short time in an unintrusive part of the screen. By the time, one realizes that the tab(s) have been closed and tries to undo the action, the option is oftentimes gone.

Show full Bookmarks' URLs instead of just domain(s). Currently, Kiwi browser (Quadea) displays the Bookmarks with two levels per line item. The first level shows the bookmark title; the second level provides the bookmark domain. It can be confusing what the bookmark actually represents given just a domain. This is especially true when there are multiple bookmarks for different pages at the same domain. I would propose that URLs be provided instead of just domains.
[Android Apps and Games] Soumy1234:
Is it possible to make kiwi think I'm using a phone and not a tablet? I understand kiwi isn't optimized for tablets, and I really like how kiwi looks and works on my phone, especially since dark mode and bottom address bar work on my phone but not on my tablet.

Thanks for your amazing browser, [MENTION=9196003]arnaud42[/MENTION]

Could you please add Wikipedia as a search engine?

Wikipedia search is built in option for Firefox and Yandex in both mobile and desktop versions (so it's not just me, single user, asking for a feature, I'm sure they researched the demand for it, since wiki is a non-commercial organization, it's done purely for users).
[Android Apps and Games] Soumy1234:
With the new "bangs" feature you can sort of do that. In the address bar, type '!w' without quotes followed by your search term(s). It will search for those terms in Wikipedia.
[Android Apps and Games] IamTheBRAVE:
[MENTION=8489742]Soumy1234[/MENTION]

Use a user-agent switcher extension from playstore. [MENTION=10220597]xdname[/MENTION]

Just do a search with wiki search engine and add it as custom SE in settings ( unless you want another SE as default, then you can make the wiki %s line as new home page for easy access )
[Android Apps and Games] samsungcuadem:
thank you its very usefull
[Android Apps and Games] P4M30:

[Android Apps and Games] Soumy1234:
Extension from chrome store or play store?
[Android Apps and Games] xdname:
[MENTION=8489742]Soumy1234[/MENTION] , typing !w is working only with English version of Wiki. But even if it could determine a query language it is still very unfriendly: [press shift] [press !] [press w] [press space] [change language by pressing space for 3 seconds(amazon devices)] [select language] [type query] [press enter]

[MENTION=8033385]IamTheBRAVE[/MENTION] , searching with Wikipedia doesn't make it appear on the list (have you tried it?)

It seems that search engine list is hardcoded, so searching with any particular engine just makes it visible on the list, not "adding" it.
[Android Apps and Games] IamTheBRAVE:
[MENTION=8489742]Soumy1234[/MENTION]

I meant Chrome store [MENTION=10220597]xdname[/MENTION].

Which site are you using for your searches? The wikipedia home page search field didn't show up in search list, i used wiki.com search and it worked
[Android Apps and Games] xdname:
[MENTION=8033385]IamTheBRAVE[/MENTION] , wiki.com has nothing to do with Wikimedia Foundation and at any moment it could direct you to god knows where. And it adds unnecessary step to the search process.

I don't understand which search site you asking about? Not plenty to choose from. There is wikipedia.org and the search field is present there as well as on every other page on their site. I appreciate your effort, but I would like to hear from the developer.
[Android Apps and Games] Soumy1234:
But won't the extension just affect the websites and not the actual app? I think I need an Xposed module or some other root utility to trick the app...
[Android Apps and Games] IamTheBRAVE:
I get it now. To make the app display like in a phone, you need to change the app's dpi. Are you rooted? It's not doable otherwise. And you're right, you'll need exposed. Or try some per-app dpi changers in play store but the result is not garanteed.

Check this: https://android.stackexchange.com/q...nge-the-density-dpi-for-specific-applications

Hello arnaud, I have this issue where clearing browsing data does not clear the site storage. For example, if I clear the browsing data, my google search history will not be cleared. I noticed this behaviour on Edge Android too. This function however works if I use Google Chrome or Samsung browser. To overcome this issue, I need to clear site storage which is buried in the settings

2 Questions:

* Zoom:

- Sometimes looks as a Desktop page until restart and corrects the view to Mobile.

- Text wrap and Zoom looks mostly wrong, even enabling Blink's Zoom at Flags.

Are because my settings?

* Sync:

- Would be possible to use a cloud storage?

Hi, is it possible to install manually chrome extensions in .crx format? I would like to install Google Cast
[Android Apps and Games] IamTheBRAVE:
Go to extension tab in menu and activate developer mode (top left) click on load and select your crx file. Make sure it's in a folder that will not be messed with, the browser will need continous access to the file.
[Android Apps and Games] Sk8erboy69:
It doesn't work, I put the file in the folder Android / data / com.kiwibrowser.browser / files / extensions. Is the right folder ?
[Android Apps and Games] DerEineDa:
I've noticed that Kiwi never opens links in their respective apps, even though these apps have been configured as default.

For example, YouTube links never open in YouTube and Reddit links never open in Boost (my preferred Reddit app). Other browsers handle this correctly. Is there some setting I didn't find?

Edit: Of course, after weeks of being annoyed about this, I finally find the setting right after posting about this. The setting is found inside the accessibility settings.

Also, Kiwi doesn't run in 90hz on the OnePlus 7T, but this is probably not the fault of Kiwi.
[Android Apps and Games] IamTheBRAVE:
Did you go to the extension page in menu and load the .crx file? Put the file in com.kiwibrowser.browser/app_chrome/default for example, then push the LOAD button (see picture) to add the extension.
[Android Apps and Games] brielll:
Best browser!

Little suggestions:

1) Websites in the startup page can be renamed.

2) Websites in the bookmarks can be added onto the startup page directly.

3) There isn’t a progress bar (or a loading indicator) when opening a url.
[Android Apps and Games] Sk8erboy69:
I did exactly as you say, but it doesn't work. Perhaps the .crx file does not work. Do you know if it is possible to install extensions in the browser to enable transmission in chromecast?
[Android Apps and Games] IamTheBRAVE:
Maybe the file is corrupt. I don't know much about chromecast, but did you check crx4chrome.com? They have a number of chromecast extensions maybe one of them will do that.
[Android Apps and Games] Sk8erboy69:
It's from there that I downloaded it. Surely the file is corrupt. Thanks for your help

Hello, I just started to use Kiwi browser. However, i think i noticed a bug with extensions. Ublock origin doesn't appear to work in incognito mode. I allowed it to work in the extension settings but it doesn't seem to have an impact. However ublock works perfectly fine in regular browsing.

Edit: it appears that no extension works in incognito, even though i allowed them to do in their individual settings

Kiwi stopped working for me today. I can open the app, but it doesn't load any page (not even the homepage). I have tryed to disable my extentions but can't do it. I have also flushed the cashe, and done a reinstallation. Nothing helps. :(

Have used Kiwi for a long time now, and never have had any problem with Kiwi before.

Btw, also the Discord-app also stopped working today, but otherwise all apps is still running without any issues. Other browsers are working too......

Any ideas why, and how to fix Kiwi for me?

Edit: Nevermind, found the source. It was an app (Swift Installer) who was the bad guy... disabled that app and Kiwi and Discord worked again.

It is superior to chrome in every way. Hopefully to see in future the ability to put custom search engine manually like in desktop chrome.

Hey guys, maybe someone can help me out.. I've been using Kiwi for over a year on my Pixel 2 XL. Recently I am missing some popup notifications. Such as, after adding a bookmark, I used to get a bottom popup with "edit". Another one is after a download, I don't see the details popup.

I don't remember changing any settings. Did Android 10 change some settings or actions??

Also, when clearing all data, it doesn't just work and close. It hangs up and never closes. I have to hit the recent program (square button) and swipe kiwi away, thus killing it, then restart/reopen Kiwi.

Any suggestions? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] PeterMarkoff:
why doesn't Kiwi respect setting for disabled navigation and still animate context menu? is there any way to disable it?
[Android Apps and Games] maurizio de maio:
I suggest to change the corners of the search bar widget to standardize with modern round elements of the UI.

For example in attachment an image of my homescreen to show how squared search bars clashes with the rest of elements.

Also a bit of personalization would be appreciated.

For example the possibility to choose from 2 or 3 search bars (with Google colors or black and white maybe)

Thanks anyway.

Hello, and thank you for the best browsing experience in Android.

Is there any way to save / export a list of all the tabs in the Tabs screen?

I thought any one of the "tabs saver" extensions would work, but after trying out some, the pattern is always the same: they all capture only the most recent dozen or so tabs. I usually have many more than that I'm interested in saving as a list.

Has anybody found a way for this?

I'm happy to write a small extension myself as well, if [MENTION=9196003]arnaud42[/MENTION] or anybody else can tell me how to query for all the tabs visible on the tabs screen.

Many thanks

Hello, i love your browser, it's so smooth and fast. I love the night mode and the feature that allow us to install extension so thanks but I have 2 questions :

Is this possible to transfer all password from chrome to kiwi browser without the Chrome sync?

With this browser, the Google captcha is always asked and sometime we have to do this 4/5 times to make it work.

On Chrome, it never shown, but I think Google do it on expect, they have classified the kiwi Browser as an unsecured browser or something like that I think.

But, there is a way to bypass this? To have less captcha

Might Did work, as the extension (or this schema) is not perfect and I haven't found another available solution yet.

Some issues found

Hello,

I found some issues when using kiwi browser on my Samsung s6 tablet.

1. There is no toolbar related settings in the accessibilities settings. Both my phone and tablet have the latest 10-07 update installed. But only my phone can see settings like "toolbar always on screen" and "bottom toolbar".

2. I often connects a bluetooth keyboard to the tablet. But everytime the keyboard connects/disconnects to the tablet, the browser refreshes and reloads all pages. If I have incognito pages open, they would all disappear. And if I have the "close all tabs" option (inside privacy, says close all tabs between two browsing sessions) on, then all tabs would be closed.

3. The "desktop mode by default" option does not always work. Sometimes pages would randomly open as mobile sites.
[Android Apps and Games] Soumy1234:
Kiwi isn't optimized for tablets. As far as I know, to make it work as if it was on a phone, you need to change the dpi value the app gets. I used the App Settings Xposed module to make it work on my Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 but it works up to Nougat only.

Ok people... That WAS a great adventure, now I'm focusing on Ghostery browser. The change is due the lack of important updates, every day "updates" of +40 MB without nothing of interest, and with that, the development team is refusing to show the contents of their updates.

Here on XDA, it's incredible how only 1 or 2 person replies to the comments (not the developers) and there's not news about the development/bug fixes/changes and not less important, ideas for updates (from the team). Isn't clear if the Kiwi source code (obviously without Google parts because this is a Chrome clone) is fully available to the public (It raises questions about privacy as well as the possibility that a third party will be able to create an option superior to Kiwi under their own programming knowledge [Nature of open source and free]
