Comments on Tor Browser (Alpha) for Android

★★★★☆ Deelu Priyadarsh · Aug 8, 2025

Security of the Alpha version is appreciated Some of the sites are forbidden from being accessed The application is found to be traversing through insecure routers in the beginning when connected from Navi Mumbai India The Onion network has a wide range of anonymous servers and the encryption of the payload is observed to be exceptional Apart from the insecure routers "en route" even after "Enabling HTTPS Only Mode" the developers have been seen as to being had done a good job

★★★★☆ Марк Стефанишин · Oct 28, 2025

I have used this program before, and I saw a lot of other comments AKA reviews in the Google Play Store that is bad, and I disagree for those who said that it's bad it's understandable this app is mostly used for dark web me myself I have not used dark web for malicious purposes, and I will never, and I do understand that you might be frustrated that keeps crashing well I mean it's the dark web it's very sketchy so of course it will crash

Good app I can't tell the difference between the two tor browser, but they sure know how to give one a sense of internet movement

I want to like this but, I'm sorry. The browser cannot circumvent cloud flare. The entire browser is blocked by cloud flare, TOR makes its relays public... 3/4 websites I visit use Cloudflare, thus no dice. The app is basically useless unless you are using Google to search for things and only viewing that result page and not actually attempting to visit the websites. But it's 2024, and using Google is virtually pointless nowadays, so this app is further redundant. I really wish Tor would update.

★☆☆☆☆ chris 1977 · Aug 22, 2025

Wow, the 2nd Tor browser is worse. This one doesn't even load at all, and it's even slower than their second Tor browser.

★☆☆☆☆ Salvator · Jan 1, 2026

Recent update to beta version has rendered the app useless no longer connects to any sites not even DuckDuckGo 🤷
