What it does

Safety switches that actually work.

01

Kids Mode

Blocks inappropriate content, so a younger sibling can browse on their own.

02

Safe Mode

Limits tracking and turns on the ad blocker. It also supports routing through a VPN bridge.

03

RAM Saving Mode

Keeps memory under 200 MB without crashing, even with several tabs.

04

History you control

Every visit is listed, and you can delete any of it.

05

Standalone

Version 1.1.5 needs no external DLLs. Install it and it runs.

06

Settings panel

Every safety and privacy switch lives in one place.

Memory

Twenty-three times lighter.

Version 1.1.5 was the biggest update GuineaBrowser has had: a redesigned homepage, a polished interface, a standalone build and the settings panel. It is also the version where the source went public on GitHub.
