Has Anyone Had Any Experience With Epic Browser?

I googled it and some said it's adware and others say it's fine. After I installed it I ran a malware scan and there were no detections. That means it's safe right?

No, not really.

Some things I learned about Epic Browser.

• Epic has a partnership with Yahoo (Why?) so Yahoo is allegedly whitelisted in their built-in ad-blocker.
• It has a Free VPN. This is possibly where the malware comes into it?
  • Free VPN’s have notorious reputations in regards to collecting data which is passed on to third parties.
• Epic Browser isn’t open source
• I went to the Apple App Store, the Epic browser App hasn’t been updated for 4 years.
• Epic is built on Chromium

You’d be better off using Brave which has a huge user base now and it’s growing. People seem to trust it. I don’t see the same warm fuzzy feeling on the net about Epic. Brave is also built on Chromium.
Or use a Fork of Firefox or just make Firefox work for you in regards to privacy and protection. You can “Harden” Firefox but I have never attempted it or know anything much about it.

Not here either! I read they have a partnership with chrome. (I would rather wait) Virus Total came up with 1 hit. + a yellow hit on reviews?
I agree with antspants.

So many good and reputable alternatives out there. If you are concerned about the privacy, then use Avast or Brave browser.
