* WebView tabs, tab overview, bookmarks, history, downloads, and find in page
* Full URL editor opened from the vertical URL rail
* Built-in QR scanner powered by ZXing
* Install Website as App support through Android pinned shortcuts
* Incognito browsing, ad blocking, cookie controls, WebRTC settings, and clear-on-exit options
* Decoy Mode for replacing recent browsing history with randomized realistic browsing sessions
