If you love using
Samsung’s browser on your phone, there is some great news.
Samsung has finally
opened up the Windows version of its internet app to everyone. After a few months of test runs, anyone with a Windows 10 or 11 PC
can now download it, which is a big step for Samsung as they aim to make it
easy for people to switch between phone and PC without losing their place
online.
No More Jumping Through Hoops
In the past, getting
this browser on your computer was a total headache. You basically had to be a
software developer and live in the U.S. or South Korea just to get a copy. Samsung has now dropped those old rules, so you do not need a
special account and it does not matter where you live; you can just go to their
site, hit download, and you are all set. It is much more user-friendly now that the
"secret club" requirements are gone.
So, why should you switch
The biggest reason to
give this a try is how well it works with your Galaxy phone. If you sign in
with your Samsung account, all your bookmarks and open tabs will show up on
your PC automatically. It feels very familiar since it
looks like the mobile version you know, and it is built on the same tech as
Chrome, so it is fast and most of your favorite sites work well, with handy
tools that block the trackers that follow you on the web.
It Is Still a Work in Progress
This
browser is now here for “everyone” to use but in the real sense, it is still a “Beta”
version and this means that you may face some weird things on this system, the
company is still crossing its T’s and dotting its I’s. However, the fact that they are letting
everyone in now is a pretty clear sign that the final, official version will be
ready very soon.
How to Get It
If you want to take it
for a spin, you can find the installer on Samsung’s beta webpage right now. It installs fast and takes just a minute to sync your data, making
it a great pick for anyone who wants their phone and PC to feel like one
device, and even with the odd beta bug, it is a solid choice for Samsung fans
tired of sending links from phone to PC by hand.
