Getting started (quick steps)

1. Download Miles Browser from the official site or your device’s app store.
2. Install and open the browser.
3. Sign in or create an account to enable syncing (optional).

Basic tips

• Use reader mode for cleaner reading of long articles.
• Enable built-in ad/tracker blocking for faster, less cluttered pages.
• Use profile or account sync to keep bookmarks and passwords consistent across devices.
• Check performance settings if you notice high memory use—try enabling efficiency or sleeping tabs.

Troubleshooting common issues

• Pages load slowly: Clear cache (Settings → Privacy → Clear browsing data) and disable heavy extensions.
• Sync not working: Sign out and sign back in, ensure network connectivity.
• Extension problems: Disable extensions one-by-one to find the culprit; reinstall if needed.
