Editor's Overview

DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser is a ai chat application developed by DuckDuckGo, packaged as a single Android APK of version 5.3 weighing in at 114.82 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

Install Checklist

Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
File size is a light 114.82 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
This build is signed by "DuckDuckGo" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

About this app

At DuckDuckGo, we believe the Internet shouldn't feel so creepy, and getting the
privacy you deserve online should be as simple as closing the blinds.

Our app provides the privacy essentials you need to seamlessly take control of
your personal information as you search and browse the web, no matter where the
Internet takes you:

* Escape Advertising Tracker Networks — Our Privacy Protection will block all the hidden third-party trackers we can find, exposing the major advertising networks tracking you over time, so that you can track who's trying to track you.
* Increase Encryption Protection — We force sites to use an encrypted connection where available, protecting your data from prying eyes, like ISPs.
* Search Privately — You share your most personal information with your search engine, like your financial, medical, and political questions. What you search for is your own business, which is why DuckDuckGo search doesn't track you. Ever.
* Decode Privacy Policies — We've partnered with Terms of Service Didn't Read to include their scores and labels of website terms of service and privacy policies, where available.

As you search and browse, the DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser shows you a Privacy
Grade rating when you visit a website (A-F). This rating lets you see how
protected you are at a glance, dig into the details to see who we caught trying
to track you, and learn how we enhanced the underlying site's privacy measures.
The Privacy Grade is scored automatically based on the prevalence of hidden
tracker networks, encryption availability, and website privacy practices.

Our app provides standard browsing functionality including tabs, bookmarks, and
autocomplete. In addition to strong Privacy Protection as described above, we
also packed in some extra privacy features into the browser itself:

* Fire Button — Clear all your tabs and data with one tap.
* Application Lock — Secure the app with Touch ID or Face ID.

Too many people believe you simply can't expect privacy on the Internet. We're
fighting to change that, and have made it our mission to set a new standard of
trust online. Install DuckDuckGo and take back your privacy!

Antifeatures:
* NonFreeNet - Uses DuckDuckGo as the exclusive search engine, for which the
source code is not available.
