Requirements: 9.0+
Overview: With Hermit, you can replace your large native apps with Web-based Lite Apps.
BETTER THAN NATIVE APPS
• Lite Apps take up almost no space, best for low storage devices
• They don’t run in the background, which saves battery
• Scriptlets: Run your own custom extension scripts!
• Built-in customizable Content Blocker can block ads, malware, misinformation, & targeted propaganda. You pick what to block.
BETTER THAN TRADITIONAL BROWSERS
Compare Hermit with Traditional Browsers: https://hermit.chimbori.com/features/compare
• Each Lite App opens in its own permanent window, not a new browser tab each time
• Links clicked in other apps open directly in Lite Apps (must set Hermit as your default browser)
• Settings, permissions, themes & icons are saved separately for each Lite App
• Share links from other Android apps to your Lite Apps
SANDBOXES: MULTIPLE PROFILES / CONTAINERS
Hermit is the only Android browser with Sandboxes: Isolated Containers with Multiple Profiles.
• Sandboxes keep your Web browsing isolated in separate containers
• Use multiple accounts, all active at the same time, in the same browser
• Keep work accounts and personal accounts separate
• Ideal for privacy-invasive social sites
• Use permanent Incognito Mode for sites that offer free content to new users
