On macOS, iOS, iPadOS, Linux and Windows soon™. Supporting Chrome, Firefox and Safari extensions on mac. Limitless customization. Privacy by default since 2021.
The development of Orion for Linux and Windows is ending, but this doesn’t have to be the end of the story. We will open-source both versions so the community can carry the torch from now on.
We are truly grateful for the support the community has shown. Thank you for believing in an independent browser, you helped us build something really valuable 🙏

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We understand how disappointing this news is to everyone, and we'll do our best to see both versions move forward in the best possible way. Thank you for your understanding!
With an Orion+ plan, all your benefits will be available across all platforms: macOS, iOS, iPadOS, Windows, and Linux.
We are progressively rolling out this system.
And yes, we're also working on a webpage that explains all of this 🫣
It’s fantastic 🎉 Thank you so much for the incredibly positive reception of Orion 1.1 (even if our site struggled a bit for about 5 minutes 🫣).
If you run into any bugs or other issues, we have a dedicated site for that. You can also suggest new features there.
And you know what? We read absolutely every single message. Yes, really, EVERY one!

Incredibly proud of the team achiving a signficant milestone for Orion browser. v1.1 is out today with native container support and visual eye candy like browser borders with focus mode (yes the picture below shows a web browser!)

It was also about time to optimize the space used up there. So, we've tucked all the status/command icons, like Reader mode or the RSS feed indicator, into a single icon.
But don't worry, we've made it optional :)
There’s Liquid Glass, and then there’s... Liquid Glass.
We decided to build our own custom solution to give compact tabs more room to breathe.
Pinned pages are now part of a single navigation element, and the active tab transforms into an editable URL and vice versa.
We’re stoked with how it turned out! What do you guys think?
Available starting next Monday
You’re not dreaming: Orion is bringing Firefox’s famous containers to Orion.
Each tab can now be *completely independent* or part of a shared group.
→ Manage multiple X or Facebook accounts in the same window, under the same profile, without them seeing each other.
→ Stop sites from tracking your searches to hike up prices.
Available for all Orion users starting next Monday.
Quick note on our golden border post:
It was meant as a lighthearted, tongue-in-cheek joke about over-the-top design. Nothing more. No political message, no hidden agenda.
We realize the reference landed poorly and we’re sorry to anyone who felt misled or uncomfortable. That was never the intent.
Orion is a browser built for everyone! Every background, every belief, every country. That’s not a stance, it’s who we are.
Back to building a great browser for all of you. 💙
