Very good browser! But still buggy. What I miss with it:
1. Can't set the homepage with bookmarks. Waiting for that since first version you publish.
2. Can't open links in other window, can't open at last 3-4 different window and (!) easy navigate between them. In second window you add I can't use the url bar to enter link, can't hide navigation buttons. Second window you add is just like other browser and other app at all!
3. Still need to write the "http(s)://" before address

3. Press the clear button and type s

I mean the homepage with bookmarks on it just like other brrowsers have.
We need multipage function anyway, you know that.
And more, can you please replace the caching from drive C to drive E?? Have to cleen my phone with Mobile Cleaner every time I'm using Star Browser.
About UI: you can replace url button from Quick Access Menu by other functions like copy page code, history or second window. URL input can be available after pushing Floating Button just like Quick Access Menu? in the same time.
Hope you'll do youre best 'cause it can become the best browser we ever heve on symbian!

You can not compare the browser to anything but the default Web app by Nokia, mate, and it does not have that feature.

Why didn't you install to E:\?

This is true; this has the promise of being the best third party browser out, mate ;)

Like I've said to a lot of people multipage won't happen, also a bookmarked homepage, that is too mainstream.

But I am badly running out of time and have a lot to do before january 1st.

The native browser does not handle streaming video; it hands it over to the Video player.
Or do you mean your Web app is not streaming videos?
-If not, Settings > Application settings > Videos
Make sure you have these settings configured.

I mean enable video via standart symbian Media player, sorry but the build in html5 player in star browser is realy sucks.
And yes, if you don't know the OSS browser can play streams on the web page, using the web site flash player, without Media player. Some times I'm watching some films online with this browser.

HTML5 player isn't my problem I didn't make it, comes with the webkit.

I couldn't change it and intergrate it anyway it's caps are too high.

Very cool - i never knew that. i dwell on an Anna E6 so my Belle fluency is not very strong.
Thanks for the tip, mate ;)

Dude, why are you so abusive to Allstar for sharing a FREE app that is still in development and criticizing it so harshly?
If you don't care too much for it, use a different browser. Or just try making suggestions without commentary; it's pretty rude.
