Dooble is a free and open-source web browser that was created to offer improved privacy for users.[2] Currently, Dooble is available for FreeBSD,[3] Haiku, Linux,[3][4][5] macOS,[3] OS/2, and Windows.[3] Dooble uses Qt for its user interface and abstraction from the operating system and processor architecture. As a result, Dooble should be portable to any system that supports OpenSSL, POSIX threads, Qt, SQLite, and other libraries.

Features

Dooble is designed and implemented in order to improve privacy and usability.

  • Dooble includes a simple bookmarking system. Users may modify bookmarks via a bookmarks browser and a popup that's accessible from the location widget.
  • Along with standard cookie management options, Dooble also provides a mechanism that automatically removes cookies. If permitted, Dooble will occasionally remove undesired HTTP cookies.[6][7]
  • Dooble Web Browser provides according to the News Portal Hongkiat an "easy to use download manager".[8]
  • Most of the data that Dooble retains is stored using authenticated encryption. Dooble does not encode file associations and user settings. Dooble also provides a session-based model using temporary keys. The passphrase may be modified without the loss of data.
  • Included is a non-JavaScript file manager and FTP browser.[7]
  • Version 1.53 introduced Gopher (protocol) support.
  • A security passphrase can be created for the browser. The password can be set from the Safe area of the browser settings.[9] "You need to create a master password, otherwise everything is wiped when you exit the program", points out PCAdvisor.[10]
  • Version 1.26 of Dooble introduced support for addons. The Tor Browser Add-On[addon 1] based on Vidalia was added in version 1.40. The Vidalia plugin was removed in version 1.49.
  • The Add-On with the name InterFace[addon 2] expands the browser with social network functions like a messenger with group chat, a friend list, an e-mail client, a chess game, and a forum function like a bulletin board.
  • InterFace is based on Qt and can be integrated as a plugin. It's based on a clone of the RetroShare Messenger. The plugin is considered deprecated.
  • Configurable proxy settings provide reasonable flexibility.
  • Dooble supports session restoration for authenticated sessions. If Dooble exits prematurely, the user may restore previous tabs and windows at the next authenticated session.
  • Some Web sites employ iFrames in order to distribute content from one or more third-party Web sites. Since this technology may raise privacy issues with some users, Dooble provides a means of blocking external content.

History

The first version (0.1) was released in September 2008.[11]

Since November 5, 2017 it uses the Qt WebEngine.[12]

The version (2.1.6) was released on January 25, 2018.[13]

Releases

Dooble was also available on Nokia's N900.[14]

Reception

In 2014 Dooble was rated as the ninth of ten "top" Linux browsers by Jack Wallen.[5] Dooble further has been announced in 2015 as one of the top five best secure browsers.[15] PCWorld reviewed Dooble in 2015 on the feature side as "rendering quickly, even on image-heavy sites".[16] The Guardian recommended Dooble in 2015 as an alternative browser against surveillance: "Try out a privacy-focused browser such as Dooble.".[17]
