Pros and Cons from users' feedback
Based on the users' reviews of the Tor Browser app, here are three pros and three cons: **Pros:** 1. Easy to use, with a simple and intuitive interface for accessing the dark web. 2. Effective in maintaining user privacy, protecting against online surveillance. 3. Portable, allowing users to access the dark web from anywhere. **Cons:** 1. Slow loading times, frustrating users with slower internet connections. 2. Limited functionality compared to regular browsers, restricting users' activities. 3. Complicated configuration settings can overwhelm new users, causing confusion. Note: The reviews on the Google Play Store are mostly positive, with many users praising the app's functionality and privacy features. However, I've highlighted some common criticisms to provide a balanced view.

Description
Orbot is a free VPN and proxy app that empowers other apps to use the internet more securely. Orbot uses Tor to encrypt your Internet traffic and then hides it by bouncing through a series of computers around the world. Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security known as traffic analysis.

★ Traffic Privacy
Encrypted traffic from any app, through the Tor network, gives you the highest standard of security and privacy.

★ Stop Snooping
No extra eyes know what apps you are using, and when, or can stop you from using them.

★ No History
No central logging of your traffic history or IP address by your network operator and app servers.

Orbot is the only app that creates a truly private internet connection. As the New York Times writes, “when a communication arrives from Tor, you can never know where or whom it’s from.”

Tor won the 2012 Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) Pioneer Award.

★ ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTES: Orbot is the official Tor VPN for Android. Orbot bounces your encrypted traffic several times through computers around the world, instead of connecting you directly like traditional VPNs and proxies. This process takes a little longer, but the strongest privacy and identity protection available is worth the wait.
★ PRIVACY FOR APPS: Any installed app can use Tor via the Orbot VPN feature, or if it has a proxy feature, using the settings found here: https://goo.gl/2OA1y Use Orbot with Twitter, or try private web searching with DuckDuckGo: https://goo.gl/lgh1p
★ PRIVACY FOR EVERYONE: Orbot prevents someone watching your connection from knowing what apps you are using or websites you visit. All anyone monitoring your network traffic can see is that you're using Tor.

    The app isn't compatible if ipv4 in the settings is off and IPv6 is on. Both settings must be on or tick for orbot to start working. This wasn't the case before I could use this app with setting on IPv6 only. There are many complaints from people why the orbot isn't working. All we get "no reply" It's shameful
