Wave Browser
Wave Browser is an efficient browser that makes everyday online life cleaner, more organized, and more meaningful. Built on the trusted Chromium foundation, it brings essential tools directly into the browser so you can get more done without installing extra extensions or juggling multiple apps. The sidebar keeps your favorite tools and lists within instant reach, while split view lets you work across two pages at once, ideal for research, comparison, studying, or multitasking.
Wave keeps your browsing protected with features that put you in control. Ad and tracker blocking give you a more secure, private experience, and incognito mode allows you to browse without storing activity on your device. With AppEsteem Certification, Wave Browser meets strict standards for clean installation, transparent behavior, and responsible software practices that help keep your experience safe.
Productivity is built into Wave’s core. Tab grouping, bookmarks, and a reading list help keep your ideas organized, while picture-in-picture, Memory Saver, and Energy Saver modes keep your device running smoothly during heavy tab sessions. The built-in AI Assistant, messaging integrations, and fast-action buttons to your favorite sites turn the browser into a true productivity partner that supports your day.
Most importantly, Wave Browser is the only browser with real ocean impact built in. Through a certified partnership with 4ocean, Wave helps fund the removal of 100,000 pounds of trash from our ocean, rivers, and coastlines each year. A live impact tracker shows how much waste the Wave community has helped remove, with verified updates from cleanup crews around the world. With Wave Browser, your everyday browsing supports cleaner waters and the people working to protect them.
