Samsung Internet expands support for extensions on its devices

Samsung Internet

Unlike other smartphone manufacturers, Samsung makes available to any Android user some of the applications that it includes natively on its terminals. One of them, Samsung Interne, has shown be one of the most popular apps on Android, not only between the terminals of the Korean company.

Far from abandoning the development of this fantastic browser, Samsung continues to improve it by adding new functions, some of which are not available in Chrome and other popular browsers available on Android. With the release of version 11.0, Samsung allows us to install other types of extensions.

Practically since its launch, Samsung Internet has limited the installation of extensions to mainly ad blockers. From now on, we will also be able to add web extensions, a standard used by many Chrome and Firefox extensions.

While the extensions offered by Samsung Internet were accessible directly from the browser, the new extensions are only available through the Galaxy Store, thus limiting their use to terminals manufactured by the company. But the limitation goes further, since it also requires Android 10 to install them.

This additional requirement further limits the new function within the company itself, since although there are many terminals that are about to be updated to Android 10, none have yet done it officially.

Samsung Internet is not the only Android browser that allows you to install extensions, an option that it is also available in both Firefox and Kiwi. A few months ago, Samsung Internet exceeded 1000 billion downloads, showing that it is not just any browser and that both the options it offers and its performance are very good, and to which we have to add the possibility of installing extensions.

Samsung Internet is available for your download completely free and does not contain ads, beyond those that we will be able to find on the webs we visit, ads that we can block using extensions.
