What's great

The most innovative browser I've used in a really long time. And that's great. Other browsers feel like copies of each other compared to Arc. I particularly like the split view and the fullscreen UX. Those are life changing.

What needs improvement

bookmarks (1)

Bookmarks!!!!! Please, please, please, add a feature where I can add persistent bookmarks. The way you make everything a tab is cool but I use my browser as a library of cool content I keep coming back to. You have no idea how many times I had to go back to my Safari and look for a bookmark there just because I closed a tab in Arc by a mistake.

vs Alternatives

Safari

I know I'm probably in a minority here but I keep coming back to Safari. It just works without drawing too much attention to itself, it syncs my content across several devices, and I don't have to think about my internet browser. And take that as you will, that's a huge plus.

Absolutely love Arc. It's not for everyone — but it's become my default browser... and that's saying A LOT!

Arc is the only alternative browser that I actually managed to stick with. I love the small details, the animations, the command palette, and how easy it is to navigate through tabs. I also enjoy how clutter-free it feels, even when I have a million tabs open. Since it's a relatively new product, there are more bugs than with other established browser, and a few more limitations in terms of add-ons. Still, I see the team constantly shipping updates, so that's good!

It is a gamechanger for me. Gorgeous, beautiful UI, and finally most of my browser routine can be done with keyboard shortcuts. Also, the Browser company are doing fantastic work with their release notes – not only shipping features and fixes, but also telling their stories. Overall – love and recommend, especially for ADHD folks out there.

I love Arc's take on web browsing and treating our browser and more of an OS than just another application. I'm a power user. Arc allows me to go crazy with tabs and multitask better than I ever could with Chrome or Safari. It has become my everyday driver but still has some quirks with window management. The dev team and the Arc community are incredibly active, so I have no doubt the improvements will keep coming.

Good browser with lot of features. But some features are complecated to use and understand. In my Mac pro 2016, firefox is still faster than Arc unfortunately

Been using this app for a few days and it's been great. It is very clearly still in development and does not have all features of most browsers - for example, the existing method of permanent tabs in Arc feels way worse than regular bookmarks from other browsers. And sometimes, when a website's controls are on the left, it may be annoying with the sidebar popping out. But overall, I've been enjoying it and there aren't many browsers that could change one's internet browsing experience so substantially.
