The popular Arc browser, well-known among macOS and iOS users, has finally made its debut on Windows. Designed to revolutionize the browsing experience, Arc boasts a collapsible sidebar that seamlessly integrates vertical tabs and bookmarks, a command bar for easy navigation, and a range of tools to enhance web browsing.
Developed by The Browser Company, Arc aims to differentiate itself from competitors like Chrome and Edge by offering a more organized and calming browsing experience. Co-founder Hursh Agrawal describes Arc as a tool that improves user productivity and task management throughout the day.
While initially jarring for Chrome enthusiasts, Arc’s unique features, such as the sidebar and clutter-free interface, provide a refreshing alternative to traditional browsers. Built on Chromium, Arc ensures compatibility with websites and allows users to bring their extensions along.
Furthermore, the release of Arc on Windows marks a significant milestone in The Browser Company’s vision of creating “the operating system for the internet.” With plans to bring Swift, Apple’s programming language, to Windows, Arc is set to become a versatile platform that extends beyond just a browser.
As the Arc for Windows continues to evolve with weekly updates, users can anticipate a growing list of features that will eventually match its macOS counterpart. With the promise of a seamless and innovative browsing experience, Arc is set to make its mark in the competitive world of web browsers.
