Yandex Browser Reviews

Yandex works great on iPhone & Windows. I love its uncensored search results. But it keeps running in the background even after you close it. Have you read their privacy statement here in YandexBrowser Store? I think their press & actual habits are at odds. That said, I’m reinstalling again for searching. I’ll probably uninstall it again for privacy.

I am really pleased to be one of Yandex browser users! I prefer Yandex to other big names like Google and Mozilla. I have given a rating of 4 stars because the browser isn’t compatible with password manager! I believe this is a very crucial feature that needs to be implemented ASAP. I have tried to add Enpass and Sticky password manager, none of them worked. You can’t even find them in the share extension. Other than that the browser gives you a seamless browsing experience.

The only issue i have ever had to complain about is that their is a lot of Russian that can’t be translated despite setting my default language to english so their is like 2 settings that I can’t even begin to understand but aside from that i love everything else. Would rate higher if their is an update to the language stuff example being caller id i look to activate it but its all in Russian so I won’t be doing that <3 much love dev team if you read this

Up at the top of these reviews someone said there feed up with Google and there a template at controlling everything we see which I cannot agree more. So in my attempt to avoid Google and as much as possible to do with them I’ve been using DuckDuckGo thinking I was on the right path for more freedom and privacy but that person also mentioned DuckDuckGo could someone explain why and should I stop using them as well. If so favorable search engine’s would help. I recently got a phone after a little over two years of not having one because someone would repeatedly hack any device me or my wife would get so now because of Google’s and various other’s madness I’m trying my hardest to stay safe and private. Thanks for your time.

I don't know why Yandex team never thought about to put these (downloading) features, they made perfect browser but never put these features, first I was using UC browser but with every new update their browser got worst that's why I moved to yandex but in this browser Above mentioned features need to add...

It’s great, I think! But I haven’t used it that much! As long as it supports free speech, and doesn’t have a screwy contrive search engine with biased results, then I love it! Make it great! For the people! And when I look up a topic like the truth about Covid vaccines, don’t throw in articles about cupcakes!

Finally a browser with the address bar at the bottom where you can search one handed! Please keep it that way. It’s what makes this browser different than the rest

I looked for another search engine when Google, Firefox, and Duck Duck Go all started to heavily censor their search results. My daughter and I are both severely damaged from vaccine encephalitis and I keep up with the news on autism, vaccines, and other types of autoimmune syndromes caused by vaccines. I was dismayed at how hard it had become even to get articles I was already familiar with. Google has admitted censoring its results, in order to promote the conventional Pharma-friendly narrative. But Yandex is incredible, whatever search I make on PC topics like terrorism, or anything else, it instantly gives me hundreds of results of just what I was looking for. And it doesn’t stall as often as the others do. I love it and am so glad I found it!

I’ve been learning Russian for years and after being in Russian social media I found Yandex. I actually prefer it better than Google. The layout is much better, and feels more user-friendly. Even without knowing Russian it’s still a great search engine.

Yes now it is done now. Zen wasn't working at first but now is.

I have a little feature idea, maybe an option where you can tap the screen in a certain pattern to open up any site?

It's hard to describe, but here's how it would be.


------
Tab closes,

Tap the screen maybe in a quick pattern to open it again.

Pattern - 1 tap top of screen, 2 left then 1 again at the top, and the page opens instantly again, just a bit faster then history.

------

Just a little gesture I think it's called that popped into my head, I don't think it's any good as an idea at all, but let me know what you think of it if you want.

It’s a great browser if your looking for something that doesn’t ask you to sign in every five seconds. Also it has everything you expect and more. I would highly recommend this browser.

I actually use Viasat browser but I can’t change the main search engine to yandex so I will use the browser for the search engine. (Edit) I don’t have a problem with this browser I just don’t have space on my device for it overall very good

I am very satisfied with YandexBrowser’s performance, it shows professional quality in all functions. I recommend to obtain the set of apps developed by YANDEX because it would be like hiring a team of navy seals to bring to you high performance and quality results to a level where you will close YandexBrowser withe the best reward from any job , event , that is “SATISFACTION” .

It is a great browser but my phone language is English but many options in YandexBrowser remains in russian, please fix it

-for example (search for a picture in google >> press and hold to a photo >> first choice is Сохранить изображение it should be save picture), there are others please fix them ❤️

Yandex is the browser everyone needs to use. For mobile and desktop. You can import your bookmarks, passwords and saved forms from Google. It also takes privacy very seriously. The other browser, Brave, works with Google. This can compromise your security. Don’t let them bribe you with Attention tokens. Instead get Yandex and be safe.

I went into Settings and selected English as default display language but YandexBrowser still renders the search engine in Russian. How do I make the settings set English as default language so that all search engine features and search results display English language?

It is up there in my favorites with Brave and Google. I am not sure if this search engine has an bias, but I just don’t want to support Google anymore.

A few things that would make YandexBrowser better:

Better optimization. YandexBrowser drains battery pretty quickly and makes my phone hot. I hope it’s not Spyware

Ability to turn off feed, etc. So far, it’s a bit noisy. I wish I could turn off the feed under the search bar on main page. A little bit more customization as well where you can turn off background, change background colour, etc. It already has AMAZING customization. It needs a little more so we can make it more simple. I really liked Google because it was simple.

Yandex Search Browser isn’t controlled by the U.S. Government therefore when you’re searching about something that the U.S. Government doesn’t want you to know it will always still pop up in the search results, anything relevant to what you’re searching up. But Google on the other hand blocks and censors things that the U.S. Government doesn’t want you to see, they control Google and therefore control see and don’t see.

Was searching for a different search engine, as getting disgusted with google and Facebook being discriminatory against Russian web and news sites. Found this gem, very impressed with turbosearch feature as extremely faster than any thing in the US. Would like to drop google all together as I do gmail through them. Went to Yandex mail, and it was in Russian language. Hope developer expands the mail feature to The US and western countries in near future.
Look forward to future updates and if google tries to shut you down, tell that Schmidt and zukerberg where to go.

Update. Thanks for responding to my suggestion. Know it is hard to connect between Russia and USA, since American media made relations strained due to that false Russian Collusion and Robert Mueller.

Would like to see something like Yandex, be a strong competition to Google and Facebook, in near future.

I really like the way you design YandexBrowser , it has its own style and looking good and classy. Maybe you can add english language support for voice to text speech. Also, don’t be like google, please think like a professional not an amateur indian google developer. Russians are smart, not stupid.

I can’t stop using it everyday as my main browser, despite that chrome and firefox are also good but Yandex has its own special features.
Hope that the dev team could integrate ID touch as one of method to confirm saved passwords.
Thanks a lot.

Yandex is the best browser for mobile and PC. I have been able to open web pages and files with it that other browsers failed to open. Works on every device I've tried it on so far.

Yandex shows up when I try to use Google Chrome. I hate it, I dont want it, I never installed it, I never agreed to it and i cant get rid of it. I want it REMOVED, FAST.
