Despite Chrome's dominance on Android and Safari on iOS, the list of mobile web browsers is huge, yet everyone has functions and features that make them unique. Security, privacy, downloading or playing multimedia content, performing actions with gestures or translation while browsing are some of the options that offer very popular mobile browsers.
An example of this kind comes from Japan. Named Smooz, it is available for Android and iPhone, as well as its extensive list of functions, because it allows us to run the browser with one hand. Literally.
In principle, any smart phone and mobile application are designed to run with one hand. Or so it should be. But we know that this is not always the case, and that despite the continuous improvements of designers and developers, we sometimes have to use both hands to carry out routine actions on our smartphone or in specific applications, including a web browser.
Smooz focuses on breaking this barrier and offers a truly one-handed navigation option. To do this, instead of placing the buttons apart from each other and inaccessible to the difficulty of self. This browser is designed to be used by thumb, and use gestures and movements so that routine procedures such as opening a tab or moving between them with one finger.
Specifically, to open a link in a new tab, click it for a few seconds. If we rotate left or right, we will switch between open tabs. If you drag your finger down, we can search or close the tab.
Also featured in the browser, you can customize the animations, to execute certain commands such as opening a favorite link, activating your profile, closing a tab, and so on.
The browser was considered one of the App Store's best apps in Japan in 2016, and has achieved excellent results in other countries recently.
