Offering the right balance of
personalization and security
, you can add shortcuts, select between two dark mode themes, and use Ad Blocker Plus — the app’s built-in ad blocker. However, you have to
enable JioPages’ ad blocker
yourself since it’s
disabled by default
. Not to mention, some websites are not accessible if you’re using Ad Blocker Plus.
Making internet browsing more personalized
One of the best aspects of JioPages is its browser customization options. Here, you can
add Quicklinks
— which is similar to that of
Google Chrome
desktop’s Add Shortcut function — so you can
access your favorite websites
without typing the web address on the search bar. It also features
Informative Cards
to keep you in the loop about sports or anything in particular.
Plus, the browser’s
dark mode
helps protect your eyes from the sleep-interrupting blue light when surfing the internet at night. It supports
multiple Indian regional languages
, too, including Bengali, Kannada, Malayalam, and many more. This way, you can understand the latest news without having to use a translator. Similar to other web browsers, this app also boasts an
incognito mode
.
Enabling incognito mode not only allows you to
browse privately
but also to safeguard your newly created bookmarks with a
PIN
. When it comes to file saving, this app’s
download manager
keeps everything organized by file type thanks to its auto-categorization system. For your security and privacy, its
dedicated
ad blocker
can hide intrusive ad banners and pop-ups on websites, making browsing less distracting.
A browser worth checking out
Overall, users should not sleep on JioPages, an Indian-developed browser. From creating shortcuts to adding a PIN to your bookmarks, this app has everything you need to secure and personalize your browsing experience. It has an ad blocker, too, though you need to enable it manually. The multiple language options are, of course, the best features of the app, as they make web browsing more accessible to Indian users.
