User Reviews

Orion Browser by Kagi is praised for privacy-first design, speed, and genuine extension support (Chrome/Firefox) with easy Safari import and the option to use Kagi as the default search engine. It also has responsive developer support. However, it is widely criticized for bugs and instability that disrupt everyday use, inconsistent extension reliability, and ad-block interactions that cause freezes, battery drain, or app-store loops. A few UI quirks and some site-specific issues further degrade the experience. Overall, strong privacy and extensibility are offset by reliability and UX concerns seen across reviews.

Pros

Strong privacy protections with minimal data collection by default.
Real extension support (Chrome/Firefox) and cross-device compatibility.
Fast performance and quick tab management, with easy Safari import.
Ability to use Kagi as the default search engine and solid Apple ecosystem integration.
Responsive support team that fixes issues and releases updates quickly.

Cons

Widespread bugs and instability; pages fail to load and features regress after updates.
Extensions reliability is inconsistent; many extensions get killed or don’t work reliably.
Ad blocking interactions cause issues such as pages freezing, battery drain, or app-store loops.
UI/UX issues and quirks; confusing or cluttered interface and non-intuitive URL handling.
Site-specific problems (e.g., YouTube unmute, Outlook blocking) and occasional performance hotspots.

Recent reviews

As others have review the ad block isn’t perfect and recently I’ve had another huge problem. All my tab groups have been getting deleted basically every time I close the app. I’ve lost probably nearly 100 tabs trying to figure this out while still using it. Fix tab groups or allow me to open all recently closed tabs and this probably goes back to 5 star.

Tried using this for a while but at some point i started getting weird page loads like on sites like reddit. Good browser when i can actually browse

Liquid Glass may have the design element of changing light text on dark background and vice versa depending on the context underneath, but A) you don’t have to follow Apple’s dumb design decision here and B) if you do, you should respect the system setting for Reduce Transparency which should put a blank space toolbar behind said UI elements to avoid this flickering. Scrolling and seeing the text/controls invert flickering is distracting and regardless of whether it was Apple’s design, this decision by Apple was sloppy and distracting. At the very least there should be the option to disable it.
