Perplexity Brings Its Comet Browser to Android

Why It Matters

The launch marks one of the first AI‑centric browsers on mobile, positioning Perplexity to compete with Google’s Gemini integration and expanding its ecosystem beyond desktop, which could accelerate user adoption of AI‑enhanced web browsing.

Summary

Perplexity has released its AI‑powered Comet browser for Android, now available for download on the Google Play Store. The mobile app mirrors the desktop version, letting users summon the Perplexity AI assistant, use voice mode to chat about open tabs, and request on‑the‑fly summaries. While cross‑device sync of history and bookmarks is not yet supported, the company says it will roll out in the coming weeks, along with plans for a fully agentic voice mode and a native password manager.
