14 DAY TRIAL // An updated flavor of the UC Browser application is now available for download for the owners of Android-based devices, namely version 9.9.2.
The new application iteration arrives with a series of new features inside, as well as with an enhanced user interface, aimed at providing a much better experience than before.
One of the main changes in the new browser version is the possibility to easily block ads. This ads-blocking capability has been built into the application and should result in a much faster browsing experience than before.
According to UCWeb, the company behind the mobile app, this is the first time when a browser brings default ad blocking functionality to its users.
Moreover, the feature allows the browser to automatically rearrange the elements on web pages through the use of this ad blocker. This will result not only in faster page loading, but will also end up in data savings, the team explains.
Additionally, the mobile application now comes with optimizations to text display, which is meant to offer smoother browsing with a more pleasant text display. The new application version was released with a redesigned navigation page, aimed at offering easier browsing capabilities.
Another change in the new browser iteration is the possibility to customize Page Color. Basically, users will be able to choose their favorite background color for any webpage they visit, it seems.
For that, owners of Android devices will simply need to go to Menu > Themes > Background Color in UC Browser, where various color options will be displayed.
On top of that, the new version of UC Browser has been designed so as to deliver faster access to Facebook. For that, the mobile app offers one click to access Facebook by creating a shortcut on the homepage.
Over the past few years, UC Browser for Android has received a great deal of enhancements, being capable of providing users with a wide range of features aimed at delivering a great browsing experience while on the go.
Some of these include Incognito Browsing, Speed Mode, Rich Add-ons, Smart Downloading, Night Mode, and Cloud Sync (which allows users to easily sync bookmarks and tabs between multiple devices using your Google, Facebook, or UC account).
UC Browser for Android has already seen tens of millions of downloads, and is one of the most popular browsers on Google’s mobile operating system. It is available for download via the Google Play store, with support for all Android 2.2 and up devices.
