Can't install the Samsung Browser from the Play Store??? :(

[zachchen1996]

The Samsung Browser (called Samsung Internet for Android in the Play Store) is my favorite browser, it is much faster and smoother than chrome (or any other browser available on android) and I used it everyday when I had the S6 Edge. I just got my S7 Edge and to my shock and dismay I get a "Your device isn't compatible with this version." message when I go to the apps page in the Play Store. The weird thing is every Galaxy S7 Edge I played with in Best Buy has the Samsung Browser. Verizon please fix this bug! I despise chrome and can't live without the Samsung Browser!

your device is so new they might not be geared up for yet, hang in there.

i love chrome, whatever is on my pc is mirrored to the phone.

Did you check Samsung own store?

Just some information.  The T-Mobile, and AT&T versions it even says not compatible.

[zachchen1996]

Yes I checked the galaxy apps store and it is not there.

I played with the S7 Edge on display in Best Buy earlier this week and it had the Samsung browser on it.

Yes I am aware, but if you go to the App Store with those devices it even says it's not compatible.  That tells me even if it is installed or not it will not be updated or able to be installed until Samsung makes it able to.

[zachchen1996]

Yeah, well at least they have the samsung browser preinstalled on them...

[Tidbits]

Don't look at me.  I am just pointing out the reason why you can't install it is because Samsung has it where updates, and installs can't happen on the S7, and S7E's,

Honestly I think Samsung did right by not having it preinstalled.  I wish Chrome wasn't preinstalled either, or at least be able to be uninstalled.  Personally I don't use either.

Try Firefox.  I really like it.
