- Bromite
- Bromite is a Chromium-based browser that comes with a built-in ad blocker as well as a good handful of upgrades to user security and privacy. It delivers a browsing experience visually similar to what you get with Google Chrome, but with more options and more privacy.
- The ad block engine in Bromite uses filters from EasyList, EasyPrivacy, and others. Thanks to them it's quite possible that you won't see a single ad during your browsing session . unless you manually whitelist certain pages.
- From the options menu you can pick which search engine you want to use by default from a long list: DuckDuck Go, Bing, Google, Yahoo!, Qwant, and StartPage, among others. Do also keep in mind that in Bromite you'll always browse in incognito mode.
- Bromite is an excellent browser for Android users that delivers more security and more privacy than the vast majority of other browsers. And all over a simple, intuitive, and familiar interface.

- Bromite - Take back your browser
- Bromite is a Chromium fork with support for ad blocking and enhanced privacy.
- Bromite is only available for Android Marshmallow (v6.0, API level 23) and above.
- For the Frequently Asked Questions see F.A.Q..
- For documentation see the wiki.
- Bromite aims at providing a no-clutter browsing experience without privacy-invasive features and with the addition of a fast ad-blocking engine. Minimal UI changes are applied to help curbing the idea of "browser as an advertisement platform".
- Please donate to support development of Bromite and the costs for the build system.

- All built versions are available as releases; the official website points to those releases and - when browsing via Android - it will automatically highlight the one apt for your device (or none otherwise).
- Each tag corresponds to a Chromium Stable release tag.
- Bromite is currently built for ARM, ARM64 and x86 and for the Android SDK version 23+; Bromite SystemWebView is provided as well (SDK23+). For every Bromite build you can always find a matching vanilla Chromium build which is used for example to verify which issues are specific to Bromite or not.
- You will automatically receive notifications about new updates (and be able to install them) via the auto updater functionality (enabled by default), see related wiki page.
- All official releases are also available through the official third-party F-Droid repository.
- Integrity and authenticity
- You can verify the integrity of a downloaded APK file from this project with any sha256sum -compatible tool by downloading the corresponding brm_X.Y.Z.sha256.txt or chr_X.Y.Z.sha256.txt file, where X.Y.Z is the release version number. Example:
- $ sha256sum --check brm_68.0.3440.54.sha256.txt arm64_SystemWebView.apk: OK arm64_ChromePublic.apk: OK arm64_ChromeModernPublic.apk: OK
- You can verify authenticity, e.g. that the author (csagan5) released the file, by using gpg2:
- $ gpg2 --quiet --verify brm_68.0.3440.54.sha256.txt.asc gpg: assuming signed data in 'brm_68.0.3440.54.sha256.txt' gpg: Signature made Sun 08 Jul 2018 04:22:52 PM CEST using RSA key ID D85DC0C5 gpg: Good signature from "csagan5 "
- You can download csagan5's public GnuPG key from here: csagan5.asc.
- Please refer to official Chromium build documentation to get started on how to build Chromium; if you can build Chromium for Android, you can build Bromite.
- The Chromium version tag used as base for the patches is available here: RELEASE; this is always corresponding to the git tag for every release. The GN args used to build Bromite are available here: bromite.gn_args. The patches are to be applied second the order specified in the bromite_patches_list.txt file (you can use git am ).
- NOTE: no official support is provided for builds.
- Bromite uses an unindexed filter file, which is periodically published at https://github.com/bromite/filters
- Please submit issues following the issue template; beware that GitHub does not display the templates from mobile.
- Patches are welcome and accepted if they match the project goals.
