Solipsism Browser 7.0.0
Installing the optional Antares core
- Install this signed Solipsism APK.
- Download and install the matching arm64 Antares Engine APK from the Antares releases.
- Open Solipsism and choose Antares in the browser-core chooser or Debug Settings.
- Both packages are required. Android WebView remains the stable fallback.
Highlights
- Added the Antares experimental browser-core integration, with secure companion-package binding and runtime core selection.
- Added a native offline homepage with bookmarks, shortcuts and consistent rendering when creating or restoring tabs.
- Added first-run setup for browser core, theme, AMOLED black, accent colour, navigation rail position and search engine.
- Added Antares/WebView tab-content lifecycle handling, loading-state tracking, media bridging and coordinate diagnostics.
- Added generic media-source handling and improved video playback lifecycle across tab switches.
- Added compatibility user-agent controls, including a Chrome-compatible mode for supported sites.
- Added preference-aware ad and tracker blocking with immediate policy updates.
- Added Screenshot Studio improvements, image search workflow and safer temporary-image handling.
- Added expanded accessibility behaviour, including announcements and Text-to-Speech support.
- Added rail and overflow-menu customisation, configurable quick actions and improved Material 3 layouts.
- Improved tab switching, URL/search-bar interaction, homepage persistence, downloads, bookmarks and privacy controls.
Known limitations
Antares is experimental. Some complex sites, including YouTube and Amazon, may have incomplete interaction, CAPTCHA, media playback or compatibility behaviour. Android WebView remains available as the stable fallback.
