A browser for people leaving Arc.
A vertical sidebar, spaces that keep their own logins, and your pinned tabs and folders carried over from Arc. Built on Chromium.
macOS on Apple Silicon only, for now.
The sidebar
Tabs where you expect them.
Vertical tabs, pinned tabs that stay put, folders, and a search that finds any open tab. If you used Arc, your hands already know it.
Pinned and folders
Pin what you always need. Group the rest into folders, and give a group an emoji so you can spot it.
Search your tabs
⌘K opens a search over everything you have open, so a hundred tabs stay manageable.
A clean page
The site you are on sits in a white card. Browser controls stay in the sidebar and out of the way.
Spaces
Work, personal, a side project. Each in its own room.
Every space has its own colour and its own logins, so your work account never leaks into your weekend tabs. Prefer to share? Point a space at another one and it uses the same sign-ins.
Colour and gradient
Pick any colour, or blend two. The window picks up the space you are in.
Separate or shared logins
Separate by default. Share a space's sign-ins with another when you want one account in both. Sharing asks first, because it signs that space out.
Pin a site to a space
Tell Halo that a site belongs to a space. Open it from anywhere and it moves to the right room, with the right login.
Leaving Arc
Bring your sidebar with you.
Halo reads Arc's sidebar file on your Mac and rebuilds it. No account, no export step.
Comes across
- Spaces, with their names, colours and emoji.
- Pinned tabs and folders, in the order you left them.
- Favorites from the top of the sidebar.
- A JSON backup you can export and import any time.
Does not come across
- Boosts and Easels. Halo does not have them.
- Logins and cookies. Sign in again in each space.
- Anything the import could not read. It tells you what it skipped.
