Naked Browser
What Naked Browser is
Naked Browser is an Android web browser focused on minimal permissions, speed, and a small interface. The free version costs nothing, has no advertising support, and includes built-in ad blocking. It offers unlimited tabs, crash restoration, and undoing closed tabs. Pages render through the Android WebView installed on the device. The maker says internet access handles web requests, file access supports saving and uploading, network-state access handles connectivity changes, and a keep-awake permission prevents downloads from stopping. Users can load a block list from a .nbhosts.txt file in the downloads folder. Naked Browser Pro adds per-site controls for JavaScript, images, user agent, cookies, and geolocation, plus clearing cookies on exit while retaining whitelisted cookies. The app listing is English only. The maker links to help and Google Play usage guidance and notes that the minimal interface may require learning.
