Fluid Browser App Reviews

I’ve wanted something like this for a long time. It’s a bit rough, but it’s getting better and better. I’m giving 5 stars because I believe in you…and goblins. Sooooo many goblins.

This is an awesome idea and the dev’s implementation of it is great. It had some flaws, like how the Chrome extension didn’t work for a little while there, but it seems like it those things were worked out. A couple things that I think would make this even better though is if it had a Safari extension (seeing as how this is Mac only) and it would also be useful if you could set local documents on your Mac (like PDF’s) as favorites and not just internet sites. Overall though, it’s still very useful and I use it all the time while I’m coding for school projects.

The window stays on top, and you can adjust the opacity - OK. Might be useful. But the first site I try to log into (Pandora) I get an error. "An error prevented this operation: com.savagebeast.radioesque.api.protocol.xmlrpc.RadioXmlRpcException: user agent mismatch”. Dead end.

Fluid Browser is just what I needed! I love how I can watch what the teacher is saying and actually do what I need to do in other programs without interrupting the video! I love this app!

Needs a little polishing, but no much. Double-geeking at its best. Watching a streaming video while wokring on the same screen is just fantastic. TV episodes, Youtube tutorials. I love it. If this app can avoid feature bloat…forever…then it will be on my desktop for, at least, that long. UPDATE: Wishlist item: privacy features

This app was great initially, but an update to it or to Hulu seems to have broken hulu. Although, I’m logged in, I can only watch a 2 minute trial. I’ve contacted support with no response. Anyone else have this issue?

Simple, easy to use, and functional. Works when I need it to without any distractions. Great product, great design, great code. It’s a wonderful creation from start to finish. Well done and well worth the buy!

This is great! I have a request, though. Could you add a couple of styles to the hbogo site so that when it’s on a small screen, the overlay for the menu disappears? It’s annoying to watch on there and be forced to see that overlay the whole time.

I bought this whith every intention for YouTube videos while working on projects. However I have yet been able to play any YouTube video becouse I get an error. Below the error it states “Watch on YouTube”, but when I click the link, it will just open a new window and still give me the same error as before. When this browser can actually playback anything on YouTube or other sites, then I would give this a 5-star review. Error: “This video contains content from VEVO. It is restricted from playback on certain sites.”

Issues: it forces you to use the youtube embedded player, which youtube has kneecapped. You can’t watch most music videos, or anything that prohibits the embeded youtbe player, which is surprisingly a lot. Fluid, whenever it sees a youtube video goes to the embedded player. I’ve also had incostincy with saving logins for stuff like HBO and Plex, and the rules as to wether the top bar will collapse or dissapear are unclear. All that aside, it’s a great little browser with a killer feature. recommended
