The record

Product: Yandex describes its browser as fast and secure, with phishing warnings powered by neural networks.
Data transfer: The browser can transfer data and settings from another browser.
Neural tools: YandexGPT-powered tools support text and media editing, translation, summarization, text-to-speech, and creative processing.
Video and image tools: The browser can summarize YouTube videos, articles, and text, recognize QR codes in videos, and translate text in images.
Tab organization: Users can group browser tabs, for example into separate work and vacation groups.
Tracker blocking: YTP technology can identify trackers on a page and block ones the user does not trust.
Password checks: The browser can flag simple, reused, or publicly exposed passwords and suggest replacing them.
Video enhancement: The browser supports NVIDIA RTX Super Resolution to display low-quality videos in higher resolution.
Security: Protect scans downloaded files for viruses, blocks infected and fraudulent websites, and secures passwords, card data, and browser settings.
Security limitation: Downloaded-file virus scanning is available only on Windows, and Yandex says its browser protection is not a full-fledged antivirus product.
Extensions: The browser supports extensions from the Google Chrome and Opera catalogs; extensions from other sources may be disabled as unverified.
Supported desktop systems: The installation guide lists Windows 10 or 11, macOS 12 or later, and specified 64-bit Linux distributions; it also notes that 32-bit Windows support ended in August 2025.
Support: Users can contact support through the browser’s Feedback form or open the form in another browser if Yandex Browser will not start.
Data handling: The maker says browser data is sent for technical tasks such as transfer speed and virus protection, as well as usage statistics; the data collection guide describes settings for disabling some data sending.
