Avast Secure Browser

I love your anti virus. I have been a customer of yours for (I think) 10 years now. I have recommended this product to everyone I have helped with their computer. You also have a web browser. Let me tell you something - don’t sell someone else’s product as your own. People want something else BESIDES Google. I recently tried your browser and saw that it is Chrome with your name on it. I am sick of Google spying on me. Yet I still love some of the Chrome features - like the ability to customize the theme of the browser with a picture of my choice. May I please suggest that your developers start working on YOUR OWN browser. This IS WHAT people will pay for.

First I’m an Avast User and not an Avast Team member.
There are ‘many’ browsers that use the underlying Chromium code.

I don’t particularly like Google Chrome, so I also don’t use any chromium based browsers.

There are a hell of a lot of Free browsers, and even Microsoft Edge is chromium based. I can’t see that changing anytime soon - the cost involved in creating your own browser in the hope of recovering that cost in sales I suspect is slim.

You would have to ask yourself why Microsoft have gone down the Chromium based Edge browser route - perhaps they can’t afford it :slight_smile:

Thank you David. You are sincerely appreciated. I just watched a YT video about 2 browsers: Duck Duck Go & Brave. The person rating both claimed that the Brave browser was “just as good as Duck Duck Go” but more customizable. I sorta like this about Chrome. I am not a big fan of “dark mode” (or the other). My Chrome copy has a nice screen shot I took from the web - beautiful pic. Thank you ever so much - again!!!
