About this app

Puffin Web Browser is now subscription-based. In addition to the existing $1/month subscription, two new low-cost prepaid subscriptions are available at $0.25/week and $0.05/day. The exact price is subject to the tax, exchange rate, and Google's pricing policy in each country. Puffin's monthly postpaid subscription offers Android's standard 7-day free trial. Puffin's short-term prepaid subscriptions allow users to pay for Puffin only when they need to use Puffin.

The yearly subscription is retired, and existing subscribers should switch to the monthly subscription when it is time to renew.

🚀 Wicked Fast: With our cloud servers handling even the most resource-demanding web pages effortlessly, websites can load at incredible speeds.

🔒 Cloud Protection: All Internet traffic from the app to our servers is end-to-end encrypted, therefore making it safe to use public, non-secure Wi-Fi.

🎥 Flash Support: We constantly provide improvements to our servers, and the ability to view Flash content through the cloud.

💰 Data Savings: Puffin uses a proprietary compression algorithm to transmit web data to your device, and can save up to 80% of your bandwidth on regular web browsing. (Please note that streaming Flash content or videos requires more bandwidth than normal usage.)

Features:
• Unparalleled loading speeds
• Fastest JavaScript engine
• Ad Blocker Included
• Mobile & Desktop modes for a full web experience
• Download to cloud capabilities (up to 1GB in size per file)
• Theater mode for Flash videos and games
• Virtual Trackpad & Gamepad
• Adobe Flash Support

===== In-App Purchases =====
* $1 per month for Puffin Monthly Subscription

* $0.05 per day for Puffin Daily Prepaid

==== Limitations ====
• Puffin’s servers are located in the US and Singapore. Geolocation restrictions of the content may occur if you are based in other countries.

No longer useful. The app often says it has no internet access and when it does it keeps asking to reconnect to server. Clearing the cache and data doesn't solve anything. I have the latest version. Once upon a time this browser was good, and I had paid a lifetime single payment for it. But then they became greedy and went back on their word, turned it into a subscription, and simultaneously the app lost quality and reliability, got worse with each update. So the low rating isn't surprising.

Let me know when you purchase Puffin Browser Pro and how much did you pay. Do you subscribe to Puffin? If not, you can't use Puffin.

I've subscribed to the monthly fee and it has served me well for years. This should be a 5 star, but on a new phone, this browser runs into a few hiccups, the Google search engine starts showing not functioning Captchas at me, even after I solved it, it's just not responding. Switching to Bing for the time being just ignores the Captchas, which alleviates the issue somewhat but I just don't generally enjoy using Bing, so for now I'm might unsubscribe and leaving a 3 star review until its fixed.

Google sabotages Puffin once in a while. The latest one occurs to some Puffin users during Google searches. Google harasses Puffin users with an infinite loop of CAPTCHAs, even if users always answer correctly. A workaround is to go to www.google.com and log in to their Google accounts. Afterward, there will be no more CAPTCHAs for Google searches.

A friend of mine recommended me. Although I was sceptical because it's a paid browser while there are literally tons of free browsers out there, still I took a 1-day plan to check this. But guess what, it's now saying 'unable to access the network! Please send log to us. We will try to resolve it'. i would like to know how I would be compensated. Will the money be refunded to me or I would be given this wasted time as Extra

The connection issue has been confirmed and fixed. According to Google Play Store, you do not subscribe to Puffin. You will not be prompted for a subscription when the connection can't be established. If you indeed paid, please contact Google for a refund.
