Hi Goldi,

While Blocks runs on a modified version of Android 6.0, I'm sure that you'll be able to download a webbrowser. If it's not developed, I'm sure someone will as soon as they have a watch, so you shouldn't worry too much.

I moved your thread to customer queries. Please make sure to ask questions on that section. Just to let you know for the next time

When you ran into a problem, don't give up.
Most of the time a nice workaround will help you further.

While it'll be quite easy for someone to develop a browser for the Blocks Smart Watch, I personally don't see the use at all. Why would you want a tiny browser on your watch ? like what are you gonna browse? It would be better to have apps that are designed specifically for the watch rather than using a browser

If we had a browser it would very limited, but this could be something to bring up when we start discussing software in more depth in the coming months.

The issue is that there's no such thing (yet) as smartwatch-friendly websites, so both the desktop and the mobile versions would be incredibly hard to navigate with a small round screen. But not everything got an app, I agree. I was thinking about something related to this issue, I'll probably share my thoughts in the software section once I have a more general idea.
