What is Silk Browser?
Silk Browser is a web browsing software developed by Amazon, designed to provide a comprehensive and immersive viewing experience on larger screens such as Fire TV. It allows users to cast videos from YouTube directly from their mobile devices to their Fire TVs. Silk Browser supports a wide range of online activities including video watching, live event streaming, socializing, and shopping. It also integrates with Alexa and the Fire TV remote for easy control of videos and music.
The browser showcases websites in full-screen mode, aiming to enhance user comfort while browsing from larger viewing platforms like a television. Silk Browser also includes a feature that remembers passwords for frequently visited websites, facilitating quicker logins. Its user-friendly menu aids in easy navigation, enabling users to move back and forth between pages, add bookmarks, and switch between desktop and mobile site views. For families, Silk Browser comes equipped with built-in parental controls, allowing parents to regulate and manage the browsing experience.
