A no-frills Android browser with a navigation drawer and adblocker and not much more? Well there must be some special reason why I am reviewing this... err... right?
Not really. I came across this in a search and downloaded it to actually see what it looks like because the only screenshots available on the app download page are of its settings menu.
Butterfly Browser is a light and fast browser with a good adblocker and no ads. Beyond that not much can be said other than editing the bookmarks menu is intuitive.
A glaring missing feature is a home button. Navigation pretty much is through the navigation drawer. It would be nice to be able to click on a home button and go to either a search engine or a speedlinks page but no such option exists.
It is plain and near every other basic Android browser you've seen all over again. If the developer ever updates this with features like a home button and individual tabs they would have a really nice browser with a clean operation.
You can get Butterfly Browser on APKPure (746kb). It is compatible with Android 4.0 and up.
My rating would be this is in my apps folder. Frankly I have enough browsers in there now. But if you're looking for an alternative browser, maybe for separate social media accounts so you don't have to keep signing in and out, then this will certainly fit the bill.
