The news and video content are being served on the Jio Browser directly from Hyderabad-based news aggregator platform PublicVibe. This seems similar to how UC Browser serves content through UC News.
The Jio Browser also has a default favourites tab that lists websites such as MyJio, BookMyShow, AJio, Amazon.in, Flipkart, and NDTV among others. Notably, you can't sort the listing on the favourites tab as per your preference or add your favourite websites. The browser, however, has the option to bookmark different URLs.
Similar to a large number of Web browsers available for Android devices, the Jio Browser features a large search bar on the home screen. You can also press the microphone icon from the search bar to use Google Voice Search for your queries. Furthermore, the browser supports multiple tabs and has an Incognito mode.
Reliance claims that the Jio Browser delivers a fast Web browsing experience. However, it is worth noting here that the browser doesn't generate cached webpage like how Opera Mini enables a faster browsing experience on affordable devices.
You can download the Jio Browser for your Android device directly from Google Play. The app comes in 4.8MB of size and is compatible with devices running Android 5.0 Lollipop and above.
