Gee
A private browser for Android. No accounts. Nothing sent to us.
Gee blocks ads and trackers, opens articles in reader view and follows sites with RSS. Every tab is private, and Burn wipes your browsing in one tap.
US$1, paid once. Google Play shows the price in your currency.

Gee is a web browser for Android that keeps your browsing to yourself. It is built on GeckoView, Mozilla's browser engine.
Every tab is private. Cookies and the page cache are held in memory, and Gee deletes site data when you press Burn, when you close the app and again the next time it starts. Burn wipes your tabs, cookies, site data and history in one tap. Gee can also burn by itself after 15 minutes or an hour in the background.
uBlock Origin is built in, with its filter lists packaged inside the app. Lists never update on their own: Gee contacts the list servers only when you tap “Update lists now”. Cookie banners are hidden too. You can turn blocking off for a site that breaks, turn off JavaScript for a site, or block a site's cookies.
Long-press part of a page to hide it. Gee remembers the rule for that site.
Open an article in a clean, readable layout, with a choice of text size and light, dark or sepia pages. Stories from your feeds can open straight in reader view.
Follow a site's feed and read new stories on your start page or in the Feeds screen. Paste a site's address and Gee finds its feed. Save a story for later with a swipe. Feeds are fetched directly from each site, without cookies.
The things you choose to keep (favourites, followed feeds, saved stories, hide rules and your per-site settings) are stored only on your phone, encrypted with keys held in Android's Keystore. History is off unless you turn it on. When it is on, each entry is encrypted, and reading it back needs your fingerprint or screen lock. Gee is excluded from cloud backup and device transfer.
Gee runs on 64-bit ARM phones with Android 8.0 or later.
Gee does not collect, sell or share any information about you. There are no accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no crash reporting. We have no server that receives anything from the app. What Gee keeps is stored only on your phone. The network requests Gee makes go only to sites you open or choose.
Read the privacy policy, which lists every request Gee makes.
Gee costs US$1 on Google Play, paid once. Google Play shows the price in your currency. There are no ads.
