More About Samsung Internet Browser
Samsung Internet is a web browser that is available on Galaxy Watch devices that support Wear OS. This includes the Galaxy Watch4 series and models released later. The browser comes with new features such as the ability to search for settings within the app, enhanced protection for synced data, and the removal of options to change the scroll bar position and hide it.
The app also prioritizes security and privacy while browsing the internet. It has a Smart Anti-Tracking feature that identifies and blocks domains with cross-site tracking abilities, as well as a Protected Browsing feature that warns users before accessing known malicious sites. Additionally, Samsung Internet allows for third-party content blockers to make browsing safer and more streamlined.
Some permissions are required for the app to function, such as location, camera, microphone, and phone access. These are used to provide location-based content, webpage shooting and QR code scanning, recording, and country-specific feature optimization. Other optional permissions include access to nearby devices, music and audio, photos and videos, files and media, storage, and notifications.
In summary, Samsung Internet is a secure and privacy-focused web browser that offers new features and customizable settings for a seamless browsing experience on Galaxy Watch devices. It also requires certain permissions for optimal functionality and offers optional permissions for additional features.
