I recently discovered a secret browser located inside the “Manage my account” popup that Android has in various apps (quite important apps, such as Settings, and all Google suite apps). The browser even bypasses parental control!
How to get there?
Getting there…. takes some work:
1. Go into Settings→Google (or any app that lets you choose your account) and click on “Manage my account”.
2. Then go to the “Security” tab. In there, scroll down until you find “Password Manager”. Click on it.
3. Click on the ‘Settings’ icon in the top-right.
4. Scroll down until “Set up on-device encryption” appears. Click on it, then click on “Learn more about on-device encryption”.
5. Now you are in the browser. But you want to go to Google.com! So click on the hamburger menu, then click “Privacy Policy”.
6. Tap the nine dots at the top, wait 5 seconds (it takes some time to load) and click “Search” (If you don’t find the search icon, you can also scroll down until ‘Google’ and click on that)
7. Logout from your Google account.
8. You got the secret browser ! You can go anywhere. You can also play YouTube videos (with ads, unfortunately), and all of this is in the settings app (or whatever app you choose)
