Is Brouser free?
Yes. Download and use it at no cost.
Which systems are supported?
Windows. Installation goes into your user folder and does not need administrator rights.
Is the VPN on by default?
No. The VPN is off until you turn it on, and it needs a WireGuard configuration. See the VPN docs.
Is Brouser based on Firefox?
Yes, it is built on LibreWolf, a privacy-focused Firefox fork, so Firefox extensions and web compatibility carry over.
How are updates delivered?
The launcher checks for a new version, downloads packages only from allowed addresses, verifies their SHA-256 hash and applies them on the next restart.
Does DIRECT X need the internet?
No. Nearby messaging runs over Bluetooth between your PC and phones.
