More of our online time is spent on mobile devices, whether smartphones, tablets or both. With this shifting approach to our connected lives, there’s an increasing demand for browsers that do the job well on smaller screens.

The tech industry has responded, creating new browsers with more functionality, more features, and more available add-ons and extensions. Below is a look at the top mobile browsers and what makes them stand out:

Chrome

Available For: Android , iOS

The Google standard and still one of the most popular browsers on desktop, mobile Chrome offers most of the same features, including the search, address, and command omnibox and private browsing. There’s a smartphone-friendly voice search function too. Plus, Chrome has powerful syncing that coordinates bookmarks, tabs, and history across devices.

Dolphin

This browser is all about customization , with extensive features, add-on, tabs, and tools to make the browsing experience your own. There’s voice-activated search and a nifty gesture function that lets you draw letters on a screen to load favorite sites.

Firefox

The mobile version is popular with the smartphone and tablet set with good reason. Firefox offers desktop sync, multiple tabs , and the add-ons (Android version) that made Firefox famous. The iOS version offers predictive search and a tab management system. The add-on choices are not as rich on the iOS version, however.

Flynx

This browser feels like a pop-up…the good kind. There’s an on-screen indicator that lets you keep using other apps while you’re waiting for a page to load. Flynx offers up to four tabs , an ad blocker, link sharing, and a double-tap function that saves pages for later offline viewing.
