Minimalist browser fans could soon have a new Android option
  • A new browser, Arc Search, will soon launch for Android, although we’re not sure of the exact timeline.
  • The browser has a minimalist design, with a few AI features built into it.
  • It also features an auto-archive function and a built-in ad blocker for a cleaner browsing experience.

If you use an Android phone, you know there are plenty of browsers available, from Google’s very own Chrome to privacy-focused alternatives like DuckDuckGo. Now, it appears that a new contender — Arc Search — might soon be joining the mix (via 9to5Google). The company confirmed this news on Threads in response to a question.

So what is it that makes Arc Search so special, especially for Android users, who face no dearth of options? Well, for one, the browser truly emphasizes a straightforward browsing experience, with a good bit of AI functionality, like the Browse for Me option, built into the platform.
