It has a great UI, easy to use tabbed browsing, and it uses gestures that feel native to Windows Phone. Maxthon is one of the fastest 3rd-party browsers we’ve used. Let us talk to teams and see what we can do.The popular browser on Android finally made its way to Windows Phone in October. But perhaps by adding a flag or other option, it can be deemed that the person is aware of it and accepted risk. We’ll have to check with our Security team and others, as we know they definitely want to make sure people are aware that there will be security vulnerabilities if they don’t upgrade. Would it be possible to implement a way for people to dismiss it so it doesn’t keep showing every time they open the browser?Īnswer: It’s something we’ll look at doing, perhaps adding a flag or something. Question: Many have been expressing their annoyance about the “To get future Brave updates, you’ll need Windows 10 or later.” message. We’ll try to loop him and the team in to know specifically how that is going to work. It will be best to tag Clifton in on that to have the specifics. Question: With the end of life for Windows 7 and 8, will that end the capability to get even manual updates or is it just marking the end of official testing and implementation, where there’s no guarantee it will still work?Īnswer: Good question, we’re not sure. Here’s their two main things ( paraphrased, not literal quotes) I just asked at the end of the Community Call about this. And all the story with disabling it here most likely is tied to manifest V3. But the point is Maxthon 6 I’m using on a desktop (just objectively more features vs Brave’s built-in TOR) keeps auto-updating no matter what. Sorry, I think I went too much off-topic. Like the hell is this, I’m holding a tablet in two hands and operate it with thumbs, where the hell am I supposed to get a 3rd finger for those gestures? Except for UC where they’ve made dumb 2- and 3-finger gestures. And nobody implements touch gestures, so tap and hold on Win (right click) and drag to draw a gesture doesn’t work anywhere now. Because Chromium starting from a specific version separates mouse gestures and touch gestures. And World had proper gesture support - just like Maxthon 5, those 2 (well, 3 - Nitro as well) are the only ones to work. It was lightweight, only Maxthon Nitro was lughter, but it was also older (35) and with less features (literally 2 settings: make default and choose homepage). In fact until this year I’ve been using The World Browser which is like what, 48 engine or so? You get the Idea I think. Those are the things that don’t bother me. And in terms of the notification constantly appearing, will see what solutions they can at least offer for that.Īh, I see now, thanks. There’s still at least a month before we worry about the support ending. For now, I’d say let’s all be patient though. Also, if no info from there, I’ll hope maybe can get more information on Tuesday’s Community Call. That said, since I’m just a normal User and not anything close to being a developer or expert within the tech realm, I’m waiting for better answers from people like and if they end up providing details. However, if you need to seek assistance for issues while using the browser on an unsupported OS, then they won’t be able to help you. If I’m right about that, then the browser will continue to work. It just says you won’t be able to update.Īs I shared elsewhere, I believe I’ve seen before that it’s just that auto update will be disabled and there won’t be any guarantees for any older OS, such as Windows 7 and Windows 8, as they won’t be tested. Also, nobody said Brave would stop working. For what it’s worth, my automatic thought here is that without security updates, you can’t update certificates. I just help and provide feedback on what I do know through observation and personal experience. I don’t pretend to know much or be an expert. In things like this, it’s going beyond my realm of knowledge. Even in WinXP browsers still work just fine as long as you’re able to update certificates. ![]()
