Homebrew WIP BrowseNX - Web Browser launcher (Source)

Why not just use the ebrowser mod?? 0% ban risk and way more convinient.

So what’s the difference between this and the captive portal? I haven’t tried this yet but it seems to be just another way to launch the portal.

Full video support among other things like no need to use a DNS and possibly allowing access to the switch's window.nx api

Just installed and it seems to work great.

That apparently has limits to its effectiveness with stuff like jQuery, Iframes, CSS so not satisfactory in my opinion, of course if you don't need sites that require things like that it's your choice what you use, it's just many sites do:

It's the videos reproductor working with sx os?

 

[BlackTSQ]

Does the browser allow to store cookies when launching it this way?

 

[pwsincd]

nothing is stored , no cookies no local_storage on exit its all gone .

There might be a way to remedy that though at some point, stay tuned

By that you mean the cookies/cache thing? Would be great If I could stay logged into my Google account at least.

 

[icefox]

is it just me or youtube still doesn't work? (I know there's an app for it)

It does.
Open a video, touch (!) on the play/pause icon once to "pause" it and again to "play" it and it will start. At least it does for me on 6.2 with Atmo.
Doing this with the JoyCons won't work, you need to do it with touch input.

Joy cons are working fine here though.
I can't believe Nintendo made such a beautiful UI to play videos but is preventing people from using it.

Yeah, cookies and cache, see this: https://github.com/crc-32/BrowseNX/issues/4 and also there's a flag/argument for this web applet too which might mean cookies, but only references caching.
The dash accounts work fine however as they keep you signed in via IP to get round this limitation, so if you do decide to use the extra features of the dash bear in mind anyone on that wifi will also have your account.

Ha! Thank you. That's funny. And the cursor works too so technically JoyCons work.

My guess is there's problem playing the ad in the beginning. Somehow pausing and playing skips it

The icon is not showing up while using SX OS, any thoughts how to fix it?

 

[keven3477]

I've been trying to install this via tinfoil but I get nca signature verification fail. How am I supposed to install?

Do you have sigpatches? This (obviously) isn't a signed official app so it won't install without sigpatches.

If you're using DZ "tinfoil" you have to enable unsigned installs in settings and enter the konami code.

 

[supermariorick]

doesn't work. it just breaks when I try to run it after installing it. needs an icon
