Answers use saved listing facts and recorded sources.

What it does

FOSS Browser is an Android WebView browser with domain-specific settings for JavaScript, cookies, blocking and fingerprint protection.

FOSS Browser makes a site's saved profile the center of its privacy workflow. You can decide which domains receive JavaScript, cookies or other capabilities and set a default profile for sites without saved choices. Its built-in blocker updates host lists automatically, with options to control the blocked content.

The repository is explicit that it uses Android WebView rather than its own rendering engine. That keeps the project distinct from a Firefox or Chromium fork and means the system web component is part of the browsing setup.
