Avast Secure Browser Review
If you’re a Chrome, Firefox or Edge user most likely do not give much thought to alternative browsers. Avast Secure is a good option if you want a browser that puts an emphasis on privacy and safety. The Chromium-based browser comes with the ability to use a click to reference VPN as well as ad blocking, among other features.
You can modify the settings of the ad-blocker and activate strict blocking mode in order to block even the most persistent ads. It also comes with the uBlock Origin plug-in, which includes dynamic filters as well as third-party lists to help you manage your ads. Its phishing prevention feature helps keep you safe from scam sites and its banking mode protects your credit card and password information from the eyes of a snooper.
Tab grouping is another feature that helps you navigate between tabs by keeping them organized. It will sync bookmarks, history, and other data across all platforms so that you can continue browsing from where you stopped. It also blocks online ads which helps speed up website loading speeds.
The web browser of Avast is almost identical to Google Chrome. It lets you import all your bookmarks, settings for configuration and other features that you can choose to add. The only drawback is that it sends usage statistics and crash reports to Avast’s servers, which you can change at secure://settings/importData. It’s a solid web browser that has a variety of privacy and security features.
