Yandex Browser - Download

Feeling strange seeing browser in the list? Well it deserve place here. Yandex browser allows you to use chrome extensions on mobile. This wasn't possible before but now it is.

Just go to chrome webstore from Yandex browser and install the extension and use it.

Of course, some extensions may not work properly since UI is completely different but it works when you have no other choice.
