Today Surfy Browser, the popular web browser app for Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows 10, has been updated to version 5.28, sporting a brand-new clean logo design.
Surfy Browser is also now available in beta on the Android platform, via the Google Play Store. At present the beta is limited to the first few hundred users. So, get in fast if you want to see what Surfy Browser on Android has to offer.
To take part in the Android beta, visit the Android Beta Testers group on Google+.
Some new features in Surfy Browser on Android include passcode protected tiles and the ability to save an entire browsing session to a tile. The browsing session can also include automatic private browsing mode and the ability to show or hide a screenshot of the page or pages on the tile.
We’re hoping these new features make their way to Surfy Browser for Windows in the not too distant future.
