Hello everyone,
We’re pleased to announce that we have released a new version of Avast Secure Browser (ASB) for Mac - version 92.0.
Changes
- Major Chromium update
- [New] Cycling Tabs Setting - setting that allows you change CTRL + TAB behaviour to cycle through recently visited tabs instead of in order
- [New] Enabled Reading List - When you want to save a page to read later you can add to a new reading list instead of bookmarking the page. To add a page to your reading list, click on the bookmark star icon on the right-hand side of the address bar. The page will then be added to your reading list on the right of your bookmark bar.
- [New] Phalanx AMSI connector - If you don’t have Avast or AVG Antivirus installed, ASB will now use 3rd party Antivirus engines for threat detection and scanning. This provides an extra layer of security for those who don’t have Avast or AVG Antivirus installed.
Fixes
[li]Improved the overall stability of the Browser
- Improved speed and stability of Avast Sync
- Improved anti-phishing performance
- Minor design improvements and fixes
- Fixed access to wetransfer.com
- Fixed search after pressing ‘Return’ key on New Tab Page
- Fixed issues with installation of Rakuten extension
If you have ASB already installed, it should be updated automatically (feel free to visit ‘secure://settings/help’ to trigger an update faster)
We hope you enjoy the changes we have made, and as always we would love to hear your feedback. Please try our Browser also on your other devices. Next to MacOS version, it is available on iOS, Android, and Windows platforms and with the Avast sync, you can synchronize the settings on all of them. You can download the Windows version here, more information for iOS see here (English locales only), and for Android here or go straight to the App Store or Google Play Store.
