Your Favorite Dev Browser Has Evolved! The All New LT Browser 2.0

We launched LT Browser in 2020, and we were overwhelmed by the response as it was awarded as the #5 product of the day on the ProductHunt platform. Today, after 74,585 downloads and 7,000 total test runs with an average of 100 test runs each day, the LT Browser has continued to help developers build responsive web designs in a jiffy.

Even so, the best was yet to come for LT Browser after many brainstorming sessions and numerous feedback from our beloved users. Our team had put in strenuous hours to cook this behemoth of testing browsers — a feature-packed browser for developers to cater to all your needs for debugging mobile websites.

We are proud and strong to announce the beta release of the new Chromium-based LT Browser 2.0!

There is so much to uncover with this updated LT Browser version so let us get right into it!

A friendly note: The LT Browser 2.0 is still in beta. We seek your continuous cooperation and suggestions to help us take LT Browser 2.0 up a notch.

Leverage The Power of Chromium

Now take your responsive testing to the next level with the power of Chromium. The all-new LT Browser 2.0 is faster than ever as it is based on the latest native Chromium rendering engine (Blink).

As LT Browser 2.0 has a Chromium-based engine, there is a lot more that it offers:

  • Use of Chrome settings and APIs.

  • Better OS integration.

  • Faster and latest Chrome dev tools.

  • Better memory management.

  • Chrome extension support.

Interact and Test With More Devices

With LT Browser 2.0, upload your app and perform mobile app testing on four devices simultaneously. Get access to a plethora of Android and iOS devices to test on. The earlier version of LT Browser allowed users to interact with only two devices, but now you can test and interact with up to four devices in real-time.

You can also refer to our detailed LT Browser 2.0 support doc to kickstart your mobile website and web app debugging process.

Fasten Your Debugging Process With Multiple Dev

Until now, you could only use a single dev tool option, not anymore though! The latest LT Browser lets you enhance debugging with multiple dev tool options. In addition, you can now have dev tools separate for every device and debug them simultaneously.

Generate and Share Multiple Bug Reports

Identifying bugs and errors early in the software testing life cycle (STLC) can save developers time and effort. With the latest version, you can generate multiple error reports with many available combinations. You can also share numerous error reports with your team members by integrating your favorite project management tool.

New Selenium IDE supports cross browser testing and parallel tests for automation along with record and replay function. Here’s why you shouldn’t miss out on it!

Clearer UI and Dark Mode

The LT Browser 2.0 now has a more precise and intuitive UI, catering to your testing needs and giving you the best testing experience possible. Also, developers can toggle to the dark or light modes per preference.

Record With Entire Screen or Browser Tab

Have you ever encountered a bug that is too tough to reproduce without enough evidence? Unlike the previous version of LT Browser, where video recording was only available for the device, users are now presented with multiple recording options.

The latest version allows devs and testers to record the entire screen or a particular LT Browser tab over a tablet or mobile view. Later, if you find anything peculiar about your responsive web application, you can review these videos with your team.

Automated functional testing tests helps to ensure that your web app works as it was indented to. Learn more about functional tests, and how automating them can give you a faster release cycle!
