If Microsoft added more extensions for people to use, or if it even allowed people to grab whatever apps they please, then I'm sure it'll be a huge hit. Search for uBlock Origin and select it from the list of results. First, open the Chrome app on your phone and go to the Google Play store. Even with this bare-bones test implementation, I'm seriously considering using Microsoft Edge for all my mobile browsing. Using uBlock Origin on Chrome mobile is easy and secure. However, I honestly think that Microsoft will have a lot more success with Edge on mobile if it fleshed out the extension support.
I understand why Microsoft went all-in on the AI browser hype after all, artificial intelligence is a huge topic these days. Microsoft Edge's best feature is its extension support In fact, if you pick up a new Android phone and you're on a clean slate, I'd recommend using Edge instead of your default browser and see how you like it. This made browsing the web a lot more pleasant than using Chrome for me.Īs such, I recommend giving Microsoft Edge a shot if you've previously disliked how it works on mobile. Likewise, whenever I visited a website that didn't have a dark mode, Dark Reader would kick in and make the website a lot easier on my eyes. I expected uBlock Origin on Android to struggle with some websites that are renowned for showing lots of advertisements, but I didn't see a single one.
