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

★★★★★ Stay off my phone Stay off my messaging · Oct 22, 2025

I like Tor, it's a good app, Will continue to use it. The only thing is when you look at the logs it shows who's hacking your phone. I saw everything they wrote. Smh. I wonder what their purpose is? Well maybe Tor can figure out why they're doing their app in that manner. Well, thank you. I recommend it.

★☆☆☆☆ B · Apr 15, 2026

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.

★☆☆☆☆ Jamie Genet · Jan 17, 2026

Why does it no longer have its own Tor browser icon? Also - this alpha version of Tor Browser no longer works. No sites will load, after connection.
