DISCLAIMER: Puffin Cloud Browser is NOT a web browser.
Puffin Cloud Browser is the client app that accesses the cloud server which runs the web browser. The Puffin client app and the Puffin cloud server do not communicate in HTTP protocol and the data exchange is not in HTML format. The Puffin client app is like the remote desktop client and the Puffin cloud server is like the remote desktop server. Puffin Cloud Browser gives the audience the illusion of a web browser but it is not, in reality, a web browser. Puffin Cloud Browser can only "display" the web content rendered on the cloud servers but can't "render" the web content itself on the client devices.

I just downloaded this app not long ago and I'm honestly loving it, with being in a other country most of the websites I used to go on became blocked, this app allows me to get access to the movie etc sites again. Only problem I have so far is that every couple of hours everything starts to slow down then it freezes all together.
F$&K you apple.

I have used this browser for years. It is the only one that will let you view the desktop version permanently. Safari is a horrible browser on iOS that I barely use as it is much slower than Google search app and you have to manually tell safari to fetch the desktop version every time: and many websites don’t end up working anyway. Apple what do you expect us to use and why does google and chrome get to stay but puffin is “competition”? My fanny they are. Is puffin a trillion dollar company now? Apple is slowly getting rid of Steve Jobs vision one device at a time until it becomes another generic $$$ corporation with barely anything to distinguish it from competitors. Eventually even the dedicated apple users begin to lose interest in the latest underwhelming overpriced e-pencil/headphones/monitor stand. This is what happens when you put a robotic gay man in charge of an IT company: the only “innovations” are a new range of flamboyant colours on the same basic clothes as the year before. I would know. 🏳️🌈
Honestly it's pretty good

I usually don't write reviews but the fact that this has been taken down really hit me. I honestly really like this app and to find that it's be taken out in part due to Apple really upsets me. I enjoyed the versatility and the options and functions. The Google app is honestly terrible it's slow and a pain and I hate it. This is now the SECOND browser app that's be forced out since I used to use dolphin which is now out for me and now puffin is out too. It's such a shame and I hope that maybe in the future it may come back.

This browser app was the best for accessing some website only versions of games, eg Forge of empires if your a leader of a guild u can do leader stuff using puffin app for those times u cant access your main computer. You cant do that in the app version of the game. Now apple think by banning puffin in the guise of being too competitive to safari.....geez come on then bring the same versatility to safari then! Only then can apple say its competitive against them. Bad form apple!!!Rating of Puffin app 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Rating of Apple unfair practices minus 5 ⛔️⛔️⛔️⛔️⛔️
