Blaze Browser: Private & Fast

Blaze is a fast, private browser with a real ad blocker built in. No account, no cloud, no tracking of you. Pages load lighter because the junk never loads at all.

BLOCKS ADS AND TRACKERS
• EasyList, EasyPrivacy, uBlock Origin lists and StevenBlack hosts, all built in
• Blocks requests before they leave your phone, then hides the empty ad slots
• Handles cookie pop-ups and the scripts that try to bring ads back
• Lists refresh weekly; add regional and annoyance lists, or your own
• A counter on every page shows what was stopped

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
• Private tabs run in their own storage, wiped when you close them
• Tracking parameters are stripped from links before they open
• Connections upgraded to HTTPS where the site supports it
• Fingerprinting protection and third-party cookies blocked
• App lock with your fingerprint or screen lock, and a blank card in recents
• Clear everything on exit, if you want

FAST TO USE
• Speed dial with your sites, most visited, and a featured row
• Search with DuckDuckGo, Brave, Google, Bing, Startpage or your own engine
• Reader mode, find in page, desktop site, translate, save page offline
• Full-screen video player that follows rotation, with background audio
• Downloads with progress notifications
• Bottom address bar option, dark pages, text zoom, data saver

Blaze keeps history, bookmarks and settings on your phone. It has no analytics and no crash reporting. The featured row on the home page is labelled Sponsored and can be turned off in Settings.

Recent changes:
Faster first load: pages start rendering as soon as the app opens, and the ad blocker no longer holds up the first page. Lighter pages: each site now only receives the hiding rules that apply to it. Privacy scripts now run in every tab, not just the first.
