Bare Browser

Meet Bare 2.0. A fresh take on browsing for Android.

Bare is a free, open-source browser built around simplicity, privacy, and control. No Bare account, no built-in analytics, no advertising services, and no unnecessary clutter.

With a completely redesigned interface, powerful extensions, flexible navigation, and thoughtful privacy controls, Bare gives you the freedom to browse your way.

A FRESH BROWSING EXPERIENCE

A cleaner interface, a new identity, and smoother navigation. Switch between tabs with a swipe, browse your open pages in a grid or list, and enjoy a customizable toolbar that puts your favorite actions within reach.

YOUR BROWSER, YOUR RULES

Make Bare feel like yours. Customize toolbar buttons, long-press actions, gestures, menus, themes, and even the app icon. Choose a minimal layout or keep more controls at your fingertips.

EXTENSIONS WITHOUT COMPROMISE

Bring your favorite browser extensions to Android. Install supported extensions, including password managers and dark-mode tools, directly from the web or through CRX files. Manage, update, and organize them in one place.

POWERFUL AD BLOCKING

Bare includes the full, removable version of uBlock Origin. Block unwanted ads, trackers, pop-ups, and distracting page elements without relying on a separate blocking service.

PRIVACY THAT PUTS YOU IN CONTROL

Browse with HTTPS-first connections, third-party cookie blocking, local network address protection, and optional JavaScript hardening.

Lock Incognito tabs with biometrics and choose whether screenshots are allowed. Bare keeps your browsing data on your device instead of sending it to a Bare cloud account.

TRANSLATE WHEN YOU WANT

Translate webpages using optional Google Translate integration or a translation server of your choice. Translation is off by default and only runs when you request it.

MORE FREEDOM ON THE WEB

Download supported videos, use external download managers, keep media playing in the background, control fullscreen video behavior, and decide when websites can open other apps.

BUILT FOR THE WAY YOU BROWSE

Choose your search engine, customize dark mode, enable haptic feedback, adjust navigation gestures, and fine-tune the experience to fit your needs.

OPEN SOURCE. COMMUNITY DRIVEN.

Bare's source code is publicly available for anyone to inspect, contribute to, and improve.

No subscriptions. No Bare account. No built-in tracking.

Just a browser that puts you in control.

This is Bare 2.0. Browsing, stripped back to what matters.
