Kiwi Browser, a completely open -source web browser for Android, apparently leaves us. Founder Arnaud Granal announced that the browser has come to the end of the road in the official Discord server and Github warehouse.

According to the report, Granal, Discord channel “Kiwi browser is now archived. After January 2025, no longer care will be done. ” The latest version of the browser, which is currently removed from the Google Play Store, can still be downloaded from Github.

In a separate message he sends, Granal said, “The care of browsers is very complex and requires long -term commitment. I started Kiwi as a side project and has been going on for almost 7 years.

After this process, the plug -in must be installed.
