Little Browser aims to be a very fast web browser. It is designed to be very simple to use and to load the webpage as fast as possible.
It reduces data utilization by displaying only readable content from webpages and by not downloading extraneous contents like scripts and images.
This app makes getting information over the web easier and faster especially when internet speed and bandwidth are limited and is very suitable for users on the move.
In-app purchase is available to remove ads.

2. Bookmark webpages for quick site access. Saved bookmark can be accessed by searching for them by entering the bookmark name into the address bar (you may need to scroll down to find the matched bookmarks).
3. Quick access to recently accessed webpage (up to 10) via navigation drawer on the left.
4. Supports webpage zooming.
5. Supports back button to move to previous webpage.

Quick Tip
• Access the tabs by sliding in from the left (see screenshot)
• Other shortcuts are also available by sliding in from the right (see screenshot)
• To go to "http://www.nba.com", just enter "nba" into the url text.
• Turn off Javascript for even faster browsing experience. (Warning: some sites with heavy usage of Javascript may fail to load properly. Just reenable Javascript when that happens)
• Hide address bar to increase amount of screen space
• Long click in manage bookmark to get context menu to appear (so that you can delete/rename selected bookmark)
This application is a work in progress.
Give it a 5 stars if you like it.
Free feel to let me know how the app can be improved for you (I am always on a lookout for ways to make it better)
I would appreciate if you can refrain from giving the app a bad rating. I am just starting out, give me a chance to fix it for you :)
Known Issues
• zooming does not work for mobile sites (update settings to use "Prefer desktop sites" to workaround this for the time being)
