    Mobile browser with cookie control

    As per the title really. I'd like to be able (as I do on desktop chrome) to accept all first party cookies then delete on exit (except whitelist), and reject all third party cookies (except whitelist, stupid Sony having multiple domains for PlayStation store).

    Chrome on mobile doesn't have the delete on exit function, and clearing cookies ignores the whitelist. I tried installing Dolphin as I've used it before and the cookie control seems even more crude. Before I start playing whack-a-mole with browsers via the Play Store can anyone recommend something that fits the bill? Don't need sync or anything fancy, just was a bit horrified by the number of cookies that I had stored when I did clear my data on mobile!

    Thanks!

    Re: Mobile browser with cookie control

    I think you may be able to use Firefox on Android with this addon: cookie-quick-manager (sorry cant post links yet!)

    From the description:
    November 2018: Cookie Quick Manager is now available on Android!

    and:
    Cookie protection: Delete cookies except protected ones
    Cleaning and privacy: Can automatically delete all cookies at startup.

    I've just installed it and it seems to work other than that it deletes the cookies "2 seconds" after launch, which im not sure if that bothers you.

    Thank you - wasn't aware there is an Android browser with cookie manager!
