ArPar Private Browser Ad Block

The page gets through. The trackers don't.

ArPar is a free private browser for Android with a built-in ad blocker. It blocks ads, trackers and cookie pop-ups and keeps your browsing on your phone. It shows no ads of its own, asks for no account and no subscription, and downloads at about 10 MB because it uses the web engine your phone already has instead of bundling a second one. That is also why it stays fast on older, low-memory Android phones.

EVERYTHING HERE, IN ABOUT 10 MB

BLOCKING
- More than 190,000 known ad and tracker hosts, blocked from first launch, nothing to configure
- On the cookie pop-ups it recognises, ArPar chooses Reject for you, so you stop tapping them
- Annoyances hidden too: autoplay video players, newsletter pop-ups, floating overlays
- Hide any element on any page yourself, and ArPar remembers it on every future visit
- Tap the shield to see what was blocked on the page in front of you; the count follows each tab
- Allow a single site when it needs it, without switching blocking off everywhere

PRIVACY
- Private mode saves no history and no new cookies, and blocks screenshots while you are in it
- Vanish clears the entire session in one tap
- App lock keeps the browser behind your fingerprint or PIN
- Global Privacy Control signal that asks sites not to sell or share your data, and that several US state privacy laws require sites to honor
- HTTPS-first upgrades connections to the secure, encrypted version wherever a site offers one
- Turn JavaScript off for a site that does not need it
- SafeSearch filtering
- Step-by-step guidance for turning on encrypted DNS

BRINGING YOUR OLD BROWSER WITH YOU
- Import bookmarks from Chrome, Brave, DuckDuckGo and others — offered the moment you start
- Export your bookmarks and history back out to files you keep and control
- No account anywhere in the process

LIGHTER PAGES, LESS DATA
- Data saver mode for slow or metered connections
- A running estimate of the data you did not have to download
- Reader mode strips menus, pop-ups and clutter down to the text

READING AND ACCESSIBILITY
- Read Aloud text-to-speech narrates any article, for when your eyes or hands are busy
- Text size adjusts across every site
- Force zoom overrides sites that try to disable pinch-to-zoom

TABS, GESTURES AND SEARCH
- Swipe the toolbar to move between tabs
- Pull down to refresh
- Tab previews and undo for a tab you closed by accident
- Search suggestions as you type
- Paste and go, straight from the address bar
- Voice search, and your own choice of search engine
- Request the desktop version of any site

OPEN YOUR OWN FILES
- Open a downloaded .html file from your file manager in ArPar: it opens in its own screen with JavaScript and online content switched off until you turn them on

MAKING IT YOURS
- Toolbar at the top or the bottom, whichever your thumb prefers
- Toolbar collapses out of the way as you scroll
- Light, dark and true black (AMOLED) themes, plus per-site themes for the sites you live in
- Dark web pages: an optional switch in Settings that darkens sites with no dark theme of their own and leaves sites that already have one alone
- Material You color, following your phone's own palette

FOURTEEN LANGUAGES
ArPar follows your phone's language, and you can set a different one for ArPar alone in Settings.

100% FREE
No ads of its own, no account, no subscription, no catch — just a fast, private browser.

WHAT ARPAR IS NOT
ArPar is not a VPN and does not hide your IP address from the sites you visit. It blocks the requests advertisers and trackers make, which is a different job from anonymity. No browser alone can make you anonymous.
