Yandex Browser

Yandex Browser is a free and user-friendly web browser that looks great and works smoothly. Made by the well-known Russian search engine, Yandex, it’s built on the Chromium platform, which means it uses the Blink engine to load web pages quickly and neatly.

Features of Yandex Browser

Since it’s based on Chromium, Yandex Browser has lots of cool features that you might find in other browsers like Google Chrome. For example, it supports Flash Player through Pepper Flash Player. Plus, there’s a unique New Tab page that has a Windows 8-style layout and lets you add widgets for popular web services like GMail or Google Calendar.

User-Friendly Interface

This browser also comes with a modern speed dial feature so you can get to your favorite websites instantly. There’s even a built-in keyboard layout switcher that helps Russian-speaking users easily switch between layouts!

Speed Up Your Browsing

If you're on a slow Internet connection, Yandex Browser has something called Opera's Turbo Mode to help load pages faster. And if you need translations? No worries! It includes a handy text translation tool that translates from any language into Russian using the Lingvo service.

Customize Your Experience

An awesome part of Yandex Browser is its powerful plugin system. You can make your browsing experience even better by adding extensions from sites like the Chrome Web Store and Opera Addons.

Compatibility with Linux

If you're interested in using Yandex Browser for Linux, it's available as pre-built binary packages for various distributions that use DEB or RPM package systems, such as Ubuntu, Debian GNU/Linux, CentOS, Pidora, openSUSE, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux—supporting only 64-bit (x86_64) hardware platforms.

Works on All Platforms

This browser isn't just limited to Linux; it runs well on popular desktop operating systems like Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X too! And yes—it works great on mobile devices using Android or iOS!
