About this app

Experimental version of a quick and intuitive Yandex Browser.

Use Chromium extension stores such as Chrome Web Store or Opera Addons to increase what you can do with Yandex Browser.

Get rid of annoying ads on websites with ad blocking.

Protect your personal data when using public Wi-Fi networks and stay away from harmful or fraudulent pages with the browser’s active security system Protect.

Hide unrelated interface elements — ads, site menus, buttons, or widgets — and leave only the relevant text and accompanying images on the screen with Reader Mode.

Surf the web in private using Incognito Mode — Yandex Browser will not keep track of your passwords, search queries, or browsing history in this mode.

Customize your Yandex Browser with a wide array of backgrounds in the wallpaper library to suit any style or mood.


If you have any questions or suggestions, you can contact us straight from the app, or via https://browser.yandex.com/feedback.

Ublock Origin still doesn't work neither from chromestore nor installing manually. Not all parts of the UI are translated in english ( the search tab is in Russian) Add auto translation videos to english as well? Too much AI, an option to disable it fully would be nice.

Great browser. Implementing an adaptive or themed app icon would be a valuable enhancement. Adaptive/themed icons are a Material You feature that allows app icons to dynamically change color based on the user's wallpaper and system theme.

There are 3 things I'd like to complain about: 1. I hate the automatic sign-in function. If I've signed to a Yandex account on Yandex Taxi, Yandex Browser will automatically detect this account and sign in for me without my consent! 2. I need to translate Russian to English, but the browser always offers to translate to Russian and I have to select English every time when I need to translate something. 3. After the recent update I simply can't find the "translate" button anymore.

Already one the best browsers in the entire store. Speed, navigation and acessibility are all great. The only real(as of early 2022) downside is the lack of options regarding extensions, otherwise this browser would be number 1. Update: nevermind the extension thing. You can install all chrome extensions, so dark reader and no script, both a must for me, work perfectly.

Alpha, browser with protect, all introduce same problem. Extensions will stop working by itself. I used 3 extensions and it happen to al 3 of them. Already email to the team for months but the problem never solved. Check reviews it seems I'm not the only one who experience it. Don't you ever ask me to file report. I report at least 3 times but problem still persist. Disappointed at the team. Time to drop this browser

Very effective browser. I love the UI of the browser but with the recent upgrade I can't seem to connect to extensions. Like these extensions are there but if it's needed for a website i can't connect to them. It's honestly very frustrating and it makes my phone hang. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it several times and that doesn't work. Can something be done about this please
