As of now this browser was in development for Android and FireFox mobile operating system. The developers are planning for the stable release of the app shortly.

How It Works :

Whenever you enter a website in this browser,

  1. it sends a SMS request to cosmos NODE.JS backend
  2. Then it will find the HTML source of the website and sends a collection of website details in a GZIP compressed package to the phone by encoding it in Base64 via series of SMSes 
  3. Now the cosmos browser will decompress package and display the contents in the browser.
  4. You will not get the pictures in the website and the webpage will not aligned correctly as you look in the web, but you will get the essential details from the website.

Developer Notes:

If you’re a developer, browse the details on the how the browser was designed and its periodic updates on its GitHub page.
