Smartphone and tablets are great for browsing the web so here's how to set your browser homepage on Android.

There are a number of browsers which you can download for Android including Dolphin, Opera and Firefox. However, there are two effectively 'default' browsers which we're going to stick to for this guide – the Android browser and Chrome.

Android browser

The standard Android browser is likely to come pre-loaded on your smartphone or tablet. It's typically called 'Internet' or 'Browser. Here's how to set your homepage in the Android browser.

Step One

Locate and open the Android browser. It might be on your homescreen but you can definitely find it in the app menu.

Chrome

Google Android devices are also likely to come with Chrome, possibly as well as the Android browser. Unfortunately, the Android version of Chrome doesn't allow you to set the homepage. Instead it will show you a selection of suggested pages based on your browsing habits.
