Internet Explorer Forward and Back Buttons

[sentimentGX4]

The only "UC browser" I see on the marketplace is some Chinese app with a Firefox-looking logo. I have to assume that's not the one you guys are talking about.

Can someone link me to the right app?

That's the one! The state of mobile browsers is kind of sad.

UC Browser is actually quite popular on Android as well.

You could try surfcube... but I don't see whats so bad about IE. How much do you really need a forward button. Just use 'recent' when needed.

No forward button and the loss of going back a page when you leave IE and come back are just two of many reasons to hate IE. Why the **** can't MS allow devs to develop browsers without having to use the IE framework?!

The best browsers on iphone/Android are 3rd party with lots of features as well as ability to stream nearly any audio/video and watch flash videos. As much as I want WP to succeed MS stubbornness and failures really piss me off sometimes.
IE is a horrible browser and while I know there are others available they are built off IE and are stuck with many of the same flaws. When's the last time MS even updated this browser? I can't say it enough, Apollo better exceed expectations because if they half *** it like they did with WP7 and other things they might as well start over or give up. They will never sniff a respectable market share

you sir are overreacting, the recent feature can be used as forward and the hardware back button is used as back,html5 videos on the most used video sites stream just fine in IE on WP. The other browsers don't even have a way to switch between mobile and desktop m IE has had this ability since 2008. IE also passes the acid test,the others don't and they crash all the time. So I'm sorry but IE is the best mobile browser I've used.

This is something I did on my HD7 when Mango first came out. It really works

I can confirm it works as a back button too if you replace 'forward' with 'back'
