Friendly Social Browser
What it is
Friendly Social Browser combines multiple social accounts in one browser app and says it is designed to help users control data and privacy. Supported accounts include Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Reddit, Snap and TikTok. Each network runs in a dedicated web container, while a privacy shield blocks content trackers, click trackers and social-media ads. Its ad blocker filters in-feed and in-video ads across several listed services, including YouTube. Feed controls can sort posts by recency and filter or highlight keywords. Users can download or repost photos and videos, and the media player supports background playback, speed adjustment and Picture-in-Picture. Account protection includes Face ID, Touch ID or passcode on iOS, and PIN or fingerprint on Android. Android also lists dark themes, AMOLED mode and notification quiet hours. The app runs on Android, iOS and macOS.
