Since the internet has emerged for consumers and businesses, there’s no shortage of web browsers. What started with the OG Internet Explorer, now has landed in Google Chrome. Although there are many excellent web browsers for PCs and mobile devices, there is a small number that prioritises privacy and a user experience free of ads.
Zoho Corporation, however, hopes to change this situation by launching Ulaa, its first privacy-focused web browser. This online browser, created in India with Chromium as its base, offers a variety of outstanding features and functionalities that set it apart as a standout option among web browsers.
Ulaa uses DuckDuckGo as its default search engine instead of Chrome or Safari. Unlike its competitors, Ulaa prioritises DuckDuckGo, a search engine renowned for its emphasis on privacy, above competitors that use Google as the default search engine. Also included in Ulaa is app tracking protection, which protects users from seeing ads for items they recently searched for on a web browser.
The prominent features of the Ulaa web browser are integrated tracking and ad blockers. Ads are successfully removed from websites by the ad blocker, giving users a clear and uninterrupted browsing experience. With only a click of a button, users may quickly and easily stop the ad blocker. By blocking an API that connects to and communicates with the user’s device online, Ulaa takes further precautions to prevent online monitoring. Additionally, it uses a multi-ID paradigm that improves privacy by making it difficult to track and link browsing sessions to specific users.
On the desktop version of Ulaa, there are five different browsing modes available: personal, work, kids, developer, and open season. The personal mode, which prioritises improved privacy and includes an ad blocker, is activated by default. Additionally, it makes it easier for users to check their browser history. Through the filtering of distracting websites and the provision of a powerful ad blocker, the work mode is intended to increase productivity. Additionally, it offers a defence against phishing attempts. Ulaa’s kid’s mode offers a vibrant user experience for younger users and parental control tools that allow parents to ban particular websites and guarantee their kids’ online safety.
Ulaa, being based on the Chromium platform, offers numerous advantages as a web browser. Users can expect to find familiar features from browsers like Chrome, ensuring a seamless user experience. Additionally, Ulaa benefits from the security enhancements and capabilities inherent in the Chromium platform, keeping users protected while browsing. Ulaa also offers cross-platform syncing, allowing users to retrieve their search history on different devices. In conclusion, Ulaa customers will get a feature-rich, safe, and synchronised web browsing experience thanks to Zoho’s usage of Chromium as the Ulaa Foundation.
