A browser that fights back.
We smite all redirects and ads.
A full-scale Android browser built to defend your session: ads and trackers blocked on the web pages you visit, redirect and pop-up hijacks stopped cold, and playback that keeps going on your terms. No store middleman — you download it right here.

Most browsers ask you to put up with the modern web. Olympus Browser is built around mechanisms that push back — here is what actually runs under the hood.
Filter-list blocking is built into the engine, not bolted on as an extension — ad and tracking requests on web pages are refused before they load.
Not a single media player runs on Olympus without its ads being smitten by Zeus.
New windows and tabs can't open without your tap. Script-driven redirects that try to drag your tab to another site are blocked at the navigation layer and logged.
A proper Android media session: your earbud and headset buttons work the way you'd expect — tap to play/pause, double-tap for next.
Olympus Browser's blocking engine works on the web pages you open in the browser — including YouTube's web pages. On those pages, the same filter lists that block ads elsewhere also block the ad requests that play before and during videos, so playback runs with far fewer interruptions. Because pages run in a real browser — not a locked-down app view — a video can keep playing in the background, with the screen off, and Olympus Browser's playback protections are designed to keep "Continue watching?" check-in prompts from pausing your music.
Honest fine print, because we'd rather say it than imply it: ad blocking is filter-based, so an occasional ad can slip through when a site changes its plumbing, and sites can change how their pages behave at any time. What we promise is the mechanism, kept current — not magic.
The core browser is free, and browsing never needs an account. Zeus is the paid tier that turns the full engine on — the complete filter lists and the aggressive redirect defenses. It starts with a 3-day free trial the moment you sign in with Google inside the app, then $1.99/month, cancel anytime. Sign-in is optional and exists only for Zeus.
Android first — honestly. Apple doesn't allow browsers to be downloaded to ordinary iPhones from a website: iPhone apps reach users through Apple's App Store (which needs a paid developer program and, for us, a separate from-scratch iOS build), or through narrow routes that don't work as a public product. We're reviewing the options and won't promise an iPhone download we can't actually deliver. If that changes, this page is where it will say so.
