Perplexity is launching its own AI-powered browser on Android. The new Comet app is now available to download, and it comes with many of the same features as the desktop version of the browser, including the ability to summon Perplexity’s built-in AI assistant while surfing the web.
Like Comet on desktop, you can use voice mode on the browser’s Android app to chat about the information in your tabs, as well as ask Perplexity to generate a summary of what you’re looking at. You can’t sync your browsing history or bookmarks across Comet’s mobile and desktop apps yet, but Perplexity spokesperson Bijoli Shah explains The Verge It’s on the startup’s “roadmap to launch in the coming weeks.”
Perplexity is also working on adding full support for other Comet features, including a fully agentic voice mode and a built-in password manager. Shah says that, however, you can still use Android’s password manager with the browser.
