How to install add-ons for Yandex browser on Android

Yandex browser add-ons for Android are installed according to a similar principle as in the desktop version of the program. The negative side is that the catalog of extensions for the Yandex browser on the Android mobile OS is much smaller than in the full version of the browser, since not all developers make modules for mobile operating systems.

There are 3 installation methods used here:

  1. Through the Google store. Extensions for the Yandex browser on Android are installed like this: Enter into the search engine: “Plugin name” for Google .
  2. Go to the page with the extension.
  3. Install the plugin for Yandex browser on Android.

  4. After installation, click on the vertical ellipsis in the lower right corner and select “Add-ons”, all installed add-ons will be here.
  • Through the Opera store. If the plugin is not supported in the Yandex browser for Android when using the previous method, you can try using the option for Opera. The algorithm of actions is identical, only we enter into the search engine: “name of the plugin” for Opera .
  • Through "Add-ons". The easiest way to install extensions for Yandex Android browser is from the custom add-ons section; first of all, you should check the availability of the required plugin here. We use the built-in catalog of add-ons for Yandex browser on Android:
      Let's go to the menu.
  • Select “Add-ons” and click on “More add-ons”.
  • Click on the switch next to plugins.
  • The list of extensions for the mobile Yandex browser is limited, there are significantly fewer of them, but the most useful additions are present here.

    Important! There are cases that the same add-on for Yandex browser on Android is not downloaded from the Chrome online store, but is downloaded from Opera or vice versa. It's worth trying both options. If the process of checking the availability of the add-on for the mobile Yandex browser takes a long time, and nothing happens after it, then the extension is not yet suitable for Android.

    How to use the directory of extensions for Yandex browser

    Google has the most complete store of plugins for the Yandex browser, since the Chrome browser is the most popular today. Most extensions are available in the Opera and Google stores at the same time, so there is no fundamental difference between them.

    How to use the Google extension store for Yandex browser:

    1. Go to the main page using the link.
    2. Enter the name of the plugin in the search bar. The Yandex browser extension store from Google will search for the given name and show the result after a couple of seconds.
    3. Click on the line with the add-on to study information on it, or immediately click on the “Install” button.
    4. In the description window, click on “Install”.
    5. A pop-up notification “Install “extension name”” will appear; confirm the action by clicking on the corresponding button.
    6. After installation, an image icon will appear on the right side of the address bar.

    Add-ons with standard settings are downloaded from the Yandex browser extension store; they are suitable for the average user, but there are also plug-ins that require mandatory specification of parameters. To go to the control menu, just right-click on the extension and select “Settings”.

    You can use the Yandex browser add-on store from Opera in the same way, even a little more convenient. If you go to Google Extensions and try to download an unsupported plugin, the installation either stops unexpectedly or runs a scan that produces no results. In Opera, it immediately indicates whether the Yandex browser supports the selected module. If there is a green button “Add to Yandex browser”, the extension is supported. Otherwise, the notification “This extension cannot be installed in Yandex.Browser” appears.

    The official catalog of add-ons for the Yandex browser includes a number of installed extensions along with the program, today there are 19 of them. The developers have independently collected the most useful and frequently used add-ons; all that remains is to enable them.

    How to activate the extension:

    1. Go to the “Menu” of the browser.
    2. Click "Add-ons".
    3. For convenience, the plugins are divided into several categories; we study the proposed options.
    4. If we find an unnecessary plugin, click on the slider next to it that says “Off”.

    If no add-on store for Yandex browser has the required extension, but there is a file with the crx from a third-party developer, you can install it in the browser. The method is also useful for people who want to install the extension on a computer without access to the network or with a low amount of traffic.

    Installation from third party sources:

    1. Download the file from the developer's website. There is a way to download crx files from the store, just go to the website and enter a link to the plugin, for example, a link to Lightshot - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/lightshot-screenshot-tool/mbniclmhobmnbdlbpiphghaielnnpgdp?hl =ru , then click “Download extension”. Using this method, you can load extensions onto a USB flash drive and transfer them to other computers.
    2. We make the Yandex browser window smaller, about half the screen.
    3. Open the folder with the downloaded crx file.
    4. Open the section with extensions in the Yandex browser.
    5. Drag the file into the browser and confirm your desire to install the extension.

    Yandex.Browser Old versions

    This page presents old previous versions of Yandex.Browser, which you can download without registration and via a direct link. You can download and install the old version of the browser from Yandex if, for example, you do not need the Alice voice assistant, or you want to see and learn how the browser developed and looked before. Sometimes, instead of updating unnecessary browser functions, an update takes away some of the old familiar features, or changes the design so much that you want to return the previous familiar version.

    You can download Yandex.Browser using the direct link at the bottom of the article ↓

    Yandex.Browser is a free web browser developed by the Russian search corporation Yandex, which uses the Blink web browser engine and is based on the open-source Chromium project. The main feature of the browser is its tight integration with Russian services from Yandex. In addition, the browser checks the security of web pages using the Yandex security system and scans downloaded files with Kaspersky Lab antivirus. The browser also uses Turbo technology from Opera Software to speed up the loading of web pages at slow Internet speeds.

    In comparison with the Chromium browser, Yandex.Browser is distinguished by:

    • Another New Tab screen with a Windows 8-style interface and specialized widgets for popular services (for example, the gmail widget shows the number of unread messages).
    • Built-in keyboard layout switcher in the omnibox: for example, if a user frequently uses gmail.com and starts typing "pf" ("gma" with a Russian keyboard layout) and presses the Enter key, the user will be redirected to gmail.com and not to Search page for "Pef" (like in Chrome, for example).
    • Support for browser extensions from the add-ons site for the popular Opera browser.

    In addition, there are special tips regarding Internet safety:

    • DNS spoofing protection. Active protection technology scans files and websites for viruses, blocks fraudulent web pages, protects passwords and bank card information, and protects online payments from theft.
    • DNSCrypt. The world's first browser to support DNSCrypt technology, which encrypts Domain Name System (DNS) traffic. For example, it protects against the DNSChanger Trojan, surveillance and ISP DPI systems, or hackers. This option must be enabled in your browser settings.
    • Wi-Fi protection When connecting to open Wi-Fi networks or to points that use weak WEP protection, the Yandex browser automatically encrypts traffic between it and HTTP sites.
