Summary

Pi Network has revamped the design of the Pi Browser, stating that it will make Pi apps and the Pi ecosystem more accessible to more Pioneers (Pi Network users) by providing a cleaner and more informative user interface. This update aims to facilitate the development of apps and utilities for the Pi ecosystem.

Explanation

The browser’s interface itself enhances the user’s security experience by indicating whether the page currently being visited is a Core Team app, an app listed in the ecosystem, verified, unverified, or a website unrelated to Pi apps. For example, if a scammer creates a fake “Pi Wallet” to phish for a Pioneer’s wallet secret passphrase, they cannot change the browser’s URL or related UI that the official Pi Wallet has. Therefore, Pioneers should not enter their passphrase into this fake wallet.

Outlook

As Pi Network progresses towards Mainnet and Pioneers actively use Pi within the ecosystem, it is important to improve the Pi Browser and provide a safer and more user-friendly experience. Pi Network’s vision is to create a human-centric, universally accessible Web3 that allows people to harness the power of cryptocurrency in their daily lives. This design overhaul is necessary to achieve a better Web3 experience in the Pi Browser, and we are very excited to see what Pioneers think.
