After six months in beta, Arc Browser for Windows 11 is now available in a stable version. Despite using the reliable Chromium base, it’s an unconventional browser that boasts some unique capabilities and a colorful and attractive design. Do you want to try it?

There is no shortage of alternatives in web browsing clients, although Microsoft’s decision to use the open source base provided by Chromium has reduced them. Either you use it in Chrome, Edge or others, or you switch to Firefox, which has been left in “no man’s land”. Apple’s Safari is similarly limited and has almost no market share outside of the brand’s own devices.

Arc Browser for Windows 11

Arc Browser was originally released for macOS in 2022. Its creator, The Browser Company, promised what all apps that came before it promised: “change the way we use web browsers”. To do this, he took some risks in the name of innovation. And we say “true” because they have the basis of so many guarantees like Chromium, which uses alternative development to the great ones like Opera, Vivaldi or Brave, makes things easier. Good

At first glance this browser it looks weird with that folding side panel for cards and bookmarks, its emphasis on split-screen navigation, and how colorful it can be if you like it. Arc also has some unique features, such as a universal Spotlight-like search shortcut that lets you browse the web using natural language, can summarize web pages using AI, and has an Easel “notebook” page that encourages you to share Arc with others. .

Although not all of its features have yet been incorporated into Arc Browser for Windows 11, this version is compatible with touch screens. Of course, works with any website and supports Chrome extensions, thanks again Chromium. We see a fundamental change in its programming language, as it uses Apple’s Swift and not the usual C++, which organizations such as the NSA recommend to stop using for security reasons.

You can download Arc Browser for Windows 11 from its website. You need to create an account and from there you can sync all your data or import bookmarks and more from Chrome or Edge. It’s the only Windows supported at the moment, but a Windows 10 version is on the way, let us know if you try it.
