Review summary

Surfy Browser is praised for its built-in text-to-speech functionality, customization options, effective ad and pop-up blocking, and privacy features, making it popular especially for text-to-speech browsing. However, users report issues with tab management, occasional app slowness, UI annoyances like obstructive menus, missing features like customizable search engines, and requests for improved dark/light mode options.

Pros

Built-in text-to-speech feature allows reading webpages aloud and background playback, useful for web novels and audiobooks.
Highly customizable UI including customizable menus and bookmarks with search bars.
Strong privacy features including optional adblocker, cookie deletion on exit, and image loading control.
Effective pop-up blocker that outperforms other popular browsers.
Unique and appealing UI that provides a desktop-like browsing experience on mobile devices.

Cons

Lack of multiple tab management improvements such as vertical tab viewing and a separate tab overview page; navigating tabs can be inconvenient especially with many tabs.
Text-to-speech lacking text highlighting and precise paragraph reading options; some issues with TTS data downloads.
App performance concerns including slow loading speeds and occasional UI glitches like keyboard initialization problems and toolbar menu reverting to defaults.
Some UI elements, such as the bottom menu, can obstruct the browsing screen and are hard to dismiss; Reload and Stop buttons missing from customizable menu.
Light mode option and better dark mode support (e.g., dark web pages, charcoal background) are requested.
