Puffin Browser Pro App Reviews

333 add

It was a great app until the update

The new iOS 9.3.1 deleted the app from my device, if you could find the problem and update your software that would be great. :)

I just dont get it.

Puffin had it perfect before hand. Why take away cool features for a dumbed down ui? Kind of insulting to be honest...

Keeping working on it.

Still a long way to go before this thing is no longer a beast.

Irritating

Update Customizations still missing, bookmarks still open new tab, menu floater at bottom still there in the way, address bar still stupidly messy to deal with, self-congratulatory bandwidth counter still appears prominently everywhere. Its terrible UI design, taking no thought for actual use. This last quick update was obviously rushed out to reset the 2-star rating. Very, very disappointing after several years of quality, user-oriented work. Dropped to 1 star from 2. --- Original 5.0 review Major borking of a good browser. Its obvious the devs got caught up in cute at the expense of functional. Most customization options are gone. Bookmarks always open new tab. Big menu tab locked at bottom is distracting at best, often infuriating. Cute slippy-slidey address bar is unintuitive and hides most of the tabs you have open (and youre gonna have a LOT open). Sadly, its bad enough to send me back to the loathsome Safari.

Laggy on iPad Air 2

I love all the new features and the new deisgn, but this browser now lags.

My adobe flash is still not working

The update is great, big problem is that flash is not working still, I use puffin to check my YouTube notifications and play flash games when Im bored What do I do?

Its OK now

V. 5 was quite unexpected in a bad way since it felt like a step back from what we already had, which was super good in use and aesthetics, but luckily the last update to v.5 fix most of the problems. Having said that, I hope you guys bring back the option to restart failed downloads ASAP, the ability to use the gamepad outside of full screen, and the auto-hide function of the menu and search bar which is quite annoying for iphone users. Leaving that aside, puffin continues to be the best mobile web browser, theres nothing this fast out there :)

Okay but

The apps keyboard does not work with the games which destroys the library of playable flash games

1-star until next update

Revised from 2-stars to 1-star until the promised next update. If that update makes significant improvement then the app rating will go up. Still no add-ons. No change in video quality. Previous update review: Why update if you make the app less user friendly? This browser no longer accepts add-ons and has fewer user options available. Any speed increase only exists with the Data Savings set in the default setting. Turning Data Savings off (for best video) leads to very slow downloads. The previous version of the app was much faster with its Data Savings set to off. Bad update!

Old version was better

As much as like the new layout l liked the older version better. There were things that didnt work on Safari or Chrome that could with Puffin because of the Flash support. Now not even Puffin can accommodate me with this. That is crap!

Terrible Update

Ive used this app for years and loved it but this recent update is terrible!!! It crashes and doesnt have the same website functionality... Please try again!

Latest update has problems

Puffin was a great way to get flash to work on a mobile browser, however, with this latest update, it has become the most unstable app I have ever used. It is constantly crashing and resetting saved settings. I hope they are able to fix this current build because I can no longer use it in its current state.

New update is horrible

Now connection is super slow and crashes often for no reason. In addition, incognito is now useless because it automatically closes the page as soon as you switch. They also took out the reconnect to server button, so now when you freeze you just wait forever. Plus, I feel like the the save data feature is there so they can monitor how much data you use, and give you less so they can buy these cheap slow servers. I am so angry I wrote this review.

Poor usability compared to previous version..

- wasted real estate - so many good personalization options taken out - practically this option has become unsalable for me with it continuously zooming in and out when you click fast playing a flash game..

Video not working

Need to fix video on some website or flush program not working

Where did the game pad go???

The previous version I Would have rated 5 stars but now that it updated the organization of the options is so much more complicated. I cant find the game pad!! Go back to the old design please!! ALSO IT DOESNT EVEN COMPRESS MY IMAGES TO SAVE MY DATA!!!! WASTE OF MONEY!!

Needs immediate fixing!

This update ruined it! Many websites dont play videos & doesnt stream anymore. Video fails!!!!

Switched

I switched to chrome because this update is not the greatest. The old interface was so much better, and the developers should definitely make the switch back. The only thing I use this app for now is to download files because this app still has the best downloading capabilities as opposed to Chrome and Safari.

Game Crash

This app used to be great but now it refreshes every single time. It would also automatically go to bookmarks. I wish I could go back to the older versions. Devs made a mess with the newest version.

Please fix!!

Downloads are super buggy. They keep redownloading, having errors, and dont consistently say the progress. Please fix and Ill give 5 stars
