Mac update! 🍎
We told our beta testers back in January that we were shifting the focus of UR and concentrating on privacy and security features.
Our goal is to build a web browser that gives you easy-to-use tools to protect your privacy and keep your data safe.
This beta version is a big step forward in our vision of a browser built to protect users. More to come in the near future!
>> Version 55.1.2883.X (PC/Mac)
Please uninstall your current version of UR and re-install this one.
