Perplexity Launches Comet AI Browser for iPhone
What’s the deal?
I put the new Comet app on my iPhone to see if it lives up to the hype. You get all the power of the desktop AI right in the palm of your hand. My first look proves that searching for stuff feels much more natural now. It makes the internet feel like it has a real brain inside it.
Key Features
I like that I can just talk to my phone instead of typing every single word. You will see a mix of regular web links and smart answers that the AI writes just for you. There is many ways to find facts fast using the Deep Research tool. I saved five minutes looking for truck parts because the app summarized three websites for me. You can tell the Assistant to find cheap prices or read your long emails while you walk. I started a search on my desk and it was waiting for me on my phone screen later. You cannot use browser add‑ons yet like you do on a big computer.
Pricing & Privacy
You get the app for free right now which is a good deal for everyone. I think you should spend the twenty dollars for the Pro plan to get more daily turns. The price used to be two hundred dollars so this new cost saves you a lot of cash. I found out that the app tracks what you look at to build a profile for ads. This data collection might makes you feel a little bit uneasy about your privacy.
Final Thoughts
I believe this is the best way for you to browse the web on a mobile device. Each of the tools help you get more work done when you are in a rush. It is a very strong tool for your phone that changes everything today.
