INSTALL ORFOX INSTEAD: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.guardianproject.orfox

*****

There are now three new options for you to browser easily through Tor with Orbot:

1) Use Orfox, the NEW browser for Orbot based on Tor Browser and Firefox, that is currently in stable BETA, here on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.guardianproject.orfox - and please send any support issue to support@guardianproject.info

2) Use Orbot's VPN mode feature to proxy any app through Tor. WARNING: This does not make you anonymous, but does help you get through firewalls, filters and other network troubles that may be blocking access to a website or app. You can use Chrome browser with this, but your identity won't be protected, ONLY your network traffic.

3) Use Lightning Browser, a "light' browser that supports Tor proxying with Orbot, but not all of the privacy features and security hardening of Orfox. Good for phones with less memory / storage.
