What if Browser Doesn’t Support any Plugins?
As I said, some extensions may have limitations due to smartphone web limits. If the extension is not supported by the Browser then I recommend you download any other extension of the same nature.
You can also try refreshing the tabs to check of the browser is installed. Some of the browsers are designed for desktop experience only therefore you may not be able to use than on mobile.
Why Kiwi Chrome Browser?
The Kiwi is a Chrome-Based Browser that runs on Google’s Blink Engine and Webkit. Thus, you can expect the same speed and page loads. Apart from speeds, the Browser also has the interface much like the Chrome Browser with inbuilt Ad Blocking and Night Mode.
