Comet browser update puts privacy in users’ hands

Users can manage privacy, security and AI Assistant permissions directly from the homepage.

Perplexity has unveiled new privacy features for its AI-powered browser, Comet, designed to give users clearer control over their data. The updates include a new homepage widget called Privacy Snapshot, which allows people to review and adjust privacy settings in one place.

The widget provides a real-time view of how Comet protects users online and simplifies settings for ad blocking, tracker management and data access. Users can toggle permissions for the Comet Assistant directly from the homepage.

Comet’s updated AI Assistant settings now show precisely how data is used, including where it is stored locally or shared for processing. Sensitive information such as passwords and payment details remain securely stored on the user’s device.

Perplexity said the changes reinforce its ‘privacy by default’ approach, an important principle in EU data protection law, combining ad blocking, safe browsing and transparent data handling. The new features are available in the latest Comet update across desktop and mobile platforms.

• AI browser Comet from Perplexity rolls out for free.
• iOS version still in the works, despite rogue App Store appearance.
• Company CEO declares bogus app “fake and spam”.

The new AI-powered browser from Perplexity, Comet, is currently winning headlines and gaining popularity – but in the mobile space, only on Android devices.

Aravind Srinivas, the CEO of AI startup Perplexity has issued a public warning via social media that the iOS version of the app, which was available on the App Store for iOS users, is a hoax application and should not be downloaded.

As of the time of writing, the listing for the bogus app has been removed, although links from search engines still exist.

Srinivas called the app “fake and spam”, stating the app is not affiliated with Perplexity, and that the company has yet to release the browser for iOS. “You will directly hear from us when Comet iOS is ready for pre-registering and downloading.”

The Comet AI browser has received a positive reception on the Google Play Store in the geographies where it’s available. The company has also released the desktop Comet browser for free in some areas – previously it was only an option to paying subscribers of Perplexity’s AI services. Comet now offers AI-powered features to users at zero cost (depending on their location, release cadences may vary), including recommendations, shopping, and smart search. Features include AI-powered summaries of searches, a contextual recommendation engine, and various integrated tools for content discovery.

The company has been careful to position Comet as a direct Chrome rival; a tall order given the latter’s ubiquitous position in the browser league tables. Chrome currently dominates web browser choice, with approximately 65% of the market across mobile and desktop. Main rival, Apple’s Safari, holds around 15% of the total

At DataDome we are seeing more and more traffic coming from AI agents and browsers. Criminals are taking notice and buying ads related to Agentic browsers (another malicious campaign for Arc browser is also running).

Cybersicherheitsforscher haben Details eines neuen Angriffs namens CometJacking veröffentlicht, der auf den KI-Browser/-Assistent Comet von Perplexity abzielt. Dabei werden bösartige Eingabeaufforderungen in einen scheinbar harmlosen Link eingebettet, um sensible Daten, auch von verbundenen Diensten wie E-Mail, Kalender u.ä. abzugreifen. Perplexity hat allerdings die Ergebnisse als „ohne Auswirkungen auf die Sicherheit“ eingestuft... 👇
