UC Browser has been created by Chinese giant Alibaba and is widely popular in India and China. The main reason is because of publicizing it as the fastest mobile browser (may or may not be, but surely it is super fast). That is why in India, with limited access to fast internet, people want to use it.

  • UC browser also sends Wi-fi related data to the parent company Alibaba
