Description
Arc Search is the modern, AI-enabled mobile browser you’ve been waiting for —focused on getting you to an answer faster, and without all the clutter of the internet.
SEARCH YOUR WAY
Arc adapts to your needs — use traditional text search, go hands-free with VOICE SEARCH and CALL ARC, or let our features BROWSE FOR ME and PINCH TO SUMMARIZE take the heavy lifting out of your search journey. With intuitive AI summarization, Arc Search condenses webpages into concise insights, delivering the perfect answer to any question you have – no more endless scrolling or information overload.
AD FREE, DISTRACTION FREE BROWSING
Enjoy an ad-free, distraction-free web experience that's clutter-free (and great for ADHD) with:
- Always-on blocking of ads, trackers, GDPR popups, and banners
- Automatic archiving of inactive tabs to maintain tidiness
- A reader mode that minimizes distractions (great for ADHD)
- A minimalist user interface that subtly complements any website
PRIVACY FIRST BROWSING
We're passionate about the internet but not at the cost of compromising your privacy. Arc Search ensures your online activities remain yours alone with advanced private browsing modes, secure tabs, and comprehensive data protection.
ARC, EVERYWHERE
Seamlessly sync your Spaces, Pinned Tabs, and Today Tabs across all devices with ARC SYNC. Whether you're on iPhone, iPad, Windows, or Mac, Arc keeps you connected. Access Arc Search quickly with home screen widgets, ensuring you're never more than a tap away from getting what you need from the internet.
IN THE DETAILS
From the keyboard-ready start to the ~easter egg~ fidget spinner logo (also great for ADHD), Arc Search delights with its clean UI and thoughtful touches.
ABOUT THE BROWSER COMPANY
Arc Search, crafted with care by The Browser Company, is more than just a browser—it represents a step forward towards a better internet. The Browser Company, based in New York, is a team of friendly individuals committed to improving how we use the internet. After all, the web browser, a tool we use daily for hours, has remained largely unchanged in the past 15 years. This realization led us to develop Arc, a browser that is not just faster but also more personal, focused, and creative. Arc embodies a vision of simplicity, eliminating tab overwhelm and internet clutter to create a more efficient online experience, keeping pace with our increasingly online lives.

Build 870246859v1.38.02024-11-08 08:07:06
Say goodbye to those pesky cookie banners! Thanks to Shannon, we've added a smarter way to handle cookie consent prompts:
- When cookie blocking is enabled, Arc Search will automatically try to deny those annoying cookie consent prompts for you.
- If we can't reliably deny the cookie prompt, we'll leave it alone so you can manually interact with it – this fixes an issue where our previous cookie blocker sometimes prevented websites from scrolling properly. Now you can keep browsing without any unexpected behavior.
Thanks for using Arc Search!
Build 870090607v1.37.02024-10-31 16:01:52
Lots of small bugs fixes and polish, including:

- Clearer education about voice search for new users
Build 869945660v1.36.02024-10-24 14:08:13

Build 869776425v1.35.02024-10-17 21:29:50
- Tapping on an App Link will now open the native app by default, if possible. If you prefer to stay in the browser, you can adjust your preference in the settings: Just select "Open App Links in... -> Arc Search". If you've already changed your preference previously, we'll of course leave it unchanged.
- We've fixed some small visual issues that came out of the app's recent update to iOS 18.
Build 869716420v1.34.12024-10-15 12:48:56
We've fixed a bug that would cause Call Arc to sometimes fail to answer your question. Sorry about that – Call Arc is back up and running again now, eager to answer all your questions!

- Take two! We've had to roll back this change from last week's release due to an unforeseen infrastructure issue, but today's Arc Search release finally contains an important fix for Traditional Chinese queries!
Previously, if you asked Browse For Me a question in Traditional Chinese, it would respond in Simplified Chinese. No more! The response will now match your language preferences and correctly detect it from the query as well.
