Bowmann here at BWone.com and we’re going to take a look at the Skyfire web browser for your windows mobile device so let’s get started. The first thing you need to do is obviously to download it and we’ll provide the link to the website at s Skyfire.com and we can download the link. There are free different ways of downloading software. Most of them are included in the Bowmann pack which is my free collection of windows mobiles that I like to have o my device.
So once you’ve downloaded it and it gotten on your device here you can actually sure get the file on your device, watch my dragon tutorial video, sure you have to do it there and once you’ve done that you want to click on the cab file here and install it. You want to install it to your device, just done setup there. So you’ll see install stop by home screen and search bar so if you’re now using Touchflo and you just want to use the standard today’s screen, you can install that or if this case we don’t want o put that on and it’s going to say and install it safely, do you want to launch it right away, they are pretty quick and it’s going to accept the agreements, it’s going to actually accept the data services and make sure that you know that your up to date if you don’t have any limited plan.
In the browser, and okay, you want to load up the Skyfire web browser you’d be presented here sort of this home page here. Now in this homepage here you have a bunch of different feeds done here at the bottom, give you some—a little bit one hour access news feed that you could scroll over here and you’ve at the top here your bookmarks. It’s going to come with some pre-loaded already. Click that, yeah, YouTube, Hulu, and stuff like that if—now social sections you get Facebook, Bibo, Twitter, Photobucket, things like that. You can also go to your history tab here and can view the previous text that you’ve going on. And if you look at the top it says log in or create account. If you create an account at scot bar the next thing about that is it’ll ask you to synchronize your bookmarks and your cookies so you can easily transfer your tuff between phones, your bookmarks and all your files and all your save the date between save browser and between phones and you could just pay in the forms as well. That’s the cool thing about signing up and you need some more stuff as well.
Alright, let’s go at the home page here. And you can actually customize this home page as well. So what you see down here at the bottom is the only thing you can have put on it via customize. You can add your log in on Facebook and Twitter. You can add different news, newsfeeds that you just dig, Google news, ESPN, different feeds and media and you just have to—all you have to do is click. To deactivate them, you got to activate it, click it once again and it’ll activate back up and you can put custom feeds right here. Then on already with it.
So once you’ve done that, click close here, you can go to back and it’ll save all your settings. And then here at the bottom and here at the bottom row. You have here your menu, I mean your menu start to give you navigation actions differentiate settings and stuff like that as well, and cancel back, this is your back right here. And if you want to go to webpage just click the top here which says empty search or your arrow so let’s click on that. Click on the bottom and it opens the virtual keyboard and you click, let’s go to PW1 and that stuff try and get where you’re going here at BWone.com, let’s figure it out. And then click go.
So you load the progression at the bottom. It’s really quick and there it is right there and it gives you how to zoom if you’re not using a touch screen phone, if you’re using like one of those mobiles, smart phone that does not have a touch screen or series 60 Nokia phone. You’ll only to use the— and stuff like that. That works on here as well but I’ll see with touch screen phone. You only need a touch screen. And remember the site and it does it really well and it is really quick. As you could see here, you see my site and all you have to do is double click in, zoom in, double click on the zoom out. You’ll accept an advance zoom if you hit here at the top, so with the plus and minus. You can zoom as close as you want and then zoom back out. Then right next you have your home button then go back to home, use your back button and if you want to hide the stop bar click that button right there and then hide that to makes you full screen mode and you can bring it back as easily as that.
And just to show you it does word it quickly, switch to landscape mode, so if you want to see the whole thing in a landscape it’s pretty quickly. Hide this top bar here which is kind of weird but you can click menu, hit web search and it will bring you back up again. So you can type another URL if you want to.
So the nice thing about scot fire is that it supports flash. So if you go to one of these links here, you can see TouchPro video, be sure you have flash radio in there. Just go in there, scroll down to the bottom and install a flash video. If you click on it, it will stop playing the flash right there for you and it will embed it to the website and you have this little sound button up so that you could turn the sound off or on. It went to loads up.
There you go your flash support. And it looks like I already put it over to YouTube. Go to the home page. It’ll show you that it supports all the flash elements as well. So you can get the flash on YouTube, you get certain flash on the webpage as well for the support, so that probably there is the Skyfire web browser. It’s definitely faster than the upper browser that’s built into the TouchPro and built into MS mobile pro at Six Pro devices. It definitely have a lot of added features which gain, gain and add feeds to it.
Like I said it floats really fast. You can go from landscape to portrait mode very quickly. It does a whole lot good about it. I definitely recommend downloading. I remember using this a little while before when I was in private beta and it was pretty good but there was a little bugs here and there but it worked all that out and it’s fast and it’s smooth and I definitely recommend it over the other web browser right now being at that book into your phone. I would definitely download the Skyfire browser and go forward and give it a shot.
