Previously available for Windows and macOS, the browser aims to provide users with increased security and privacy while navigating the Internet, shopping, or accessing their bank accounts on their Android devices.

The mobile application builds on Avast's 2019 acquisition of Tenta, a private browser backed by blockchain pioneer ConsenSys. Avast Secure Browser is developed based on strong encryption, including AES-256, ChaCha 256-bit, and TLS cryptographic protocols.
Featuring support for multiple DNS options straight out of the box, including DNS over TLS, DNSSEC and decentralized DNS support, Avast Secure Browser also ensures that DNS requests are both private and secure.

Additionally, the application includes a VPN to encrypt all inbound and outbound connections, supports a unique ephemeral user PIN code for device access, and features anti-tracking technologies, adblock integration, and an encrypted media vault.

Announcement

Encrypted browsers belong on every device
As our workflows and daily lives have changed for the foreseeable future, it’s a good time to pause and brush up on ways to keep yourself safe and secure, and where might be an area you haven’t thought about protecting before. Like your browser.

Today, we’re proud to introduce Avast Secure Browser for Android because it’s even more than just an encrypted browser. It’s a Swiss Army knife of useful tools for comprehensive defense against mobile online threats. Along with encrypting your data, it also includes a VPN to keep you anonymous online and protect you over public Wi-Fi, and adblock that restricts pesky ads, allowing your webpages to load faster.
