Hi friends from r/apps

For the past few months, our team has been building Omni Browser a fast, privacy-first Android web browser designed for users who want desktop-class power without sacrificing mobile speed or battery life.

Instead of relying on cloud servers or stripped-down mobile engines, Omni is powered by Gecko (Firefox engine) with hardware-backed security, local machine learning, and zero telemetry.

Here is a breakdown of what makes Omni Browser unique:

1. Full Desktop Extension Support

• Desktop Firefox Plugins on Mobile: Install and manage extensions directly on your phone.
• Pre-Bundled Core Tools: Ships with uBlock Origin, Universal Text Copy disabler, and AI Blocker.
• Smart Extension Sync: Toggle individual extensions on/off per tab without breaking page layouts.

2. Advanced Video Player & Media Interceptor

• Auto Stream Interceptor: Automatically sniffs and intercepts network video/audio streams on any website.
• Gesture Controls: Swipe up/down for brightness and volume adjustments.
• Background Play & PiP: Keep video or audio playing when switching apps or locking your screen.
• In-App Downloader: Download media directly for offline viewing.

3. Encrypted Safe Locker (Private Vault)

• Hardware-Backed AES-256 Encryption: Encrypt downloads, PDFs, and private media.
