Description
It's your device. It's your time. So make it your Internet.
Brave has joined forces with LinkBubble to bring you a faster web - by blocking the ads and trackers that get in your way plus all the features you love from LinkBubble. Just go to the settings to turn on or off privacy features like ad blocking, tracker protection and Https Everywhere.
Recognized in Google Play's Best Apps of 2014, Brave (formerly known as LinkBubble) has unique features to make internet browsing faster and more seamless. When you click on a link in an app, Brave loads that webpage in the background, leaving you free to keep using your current app - rather than wasting your time watching pages load.

Brave Offers:
- Ad Blocking - Tracker Protection - Https Everywhere (for security) - Page loading in the background - Efficient handling of links that direct to other apps
Download Brave to experience the web the way it should be - fast, secure, and with settings controlled by you, the user.

Comments on Link Bubble for Android
★★★★★
My only complaint with this app is that when dragging the bubble around (from the side, tapping it to open, dragging to share or close) it is EXTREMELY laggy. Granted I have a phone that isn't brand new, but the SD 801 processor should not be struggling this much. If the bubble dragging was optimized better, it would be a total 5 star app, no question
★★★★★
the concept is great...but not working for me on oneplus 3..while using google when i simply click links they open up in chrome. i have changed the default to link bubble...have checked permissions...but it wont work.
★★☆☆☆
If this app doesn't work with you check your permissions settings as it has a special permission to create pop up windows which is disabled by default on my phone. It may also require draw over other apps permissions and perhaps accessibility settings. Works great after I have made these changes and is far more stable and useful than the similar app flynx.
★★☆☆☆
Forces you to use brave browser!! Cannot set the puffin browser as default browser
★★☆☆☆
Trust me on this. You need this app. It'll change the way you browse the web. One suggestion, Chris: add swiping between bubbles like swiping between tabs in Chrome. It just kinda makes sense. In my head at least.
★★☆☆☆
High data usage Neat product, great functionality, but leaving a bubble active (even if not expanded) can potentially, and quickly, eat through your cellular data plan. In less than one day for me, one active link bubble sucked up 1.19 GB of data. EDIT: Background cellular data can be disabled in \\Settings\Apps\App info\App data usage
