Puffin Browser is a web browser released by CloudMosa for mobile operating systems[1] like a Android,[2][3] iOS, and Windows[4] operating systems. It uses a split architecture where some of the processing is performed on encrypted cloud servers to improve webpage loading performance and reduce bandwidth use.[5][6][7] As a result of the pages being processed on cloud servers, the IP address reflects the cloud server's IP address and some websites might detect the browser to be a proxy server.[1] For instance, users cannot edit Wikipedia using Puffin because Wikipedia detects Puffin to be a proxy server.
Puffin comes with Adobe Flash Player to play flash content.[8][9] It also comes with virtual trackpad, gamepad, and on screen keyboard functions.[10][11] It was released sometime before October 2013.
Puffin Browser also have a Lite version for iOS.[12][13][14]
