• Function: The address bar (called “Smart Address Bar” by Maxthon) integrates search, URL input, and command execution.
• Advantage: Supports direct input of search keywords, URLs, or quick commands such as “Calculator” and “Translate,” boosting browsing efficiency.

5. Super Drag & Gesture Control

• Function: Drag selected text or links to perform actions like searching, opening in a new tab, or saving as an image.
• Advantage: Combined with customizable mouse gestures (execute commands via mouse movement), users can perform common actions like navigating forward/backward or closing tabs without clicking buttons, enabling smooth, fluid browsing.

6. Password Master

• Advantage: Enhances reading focus and comfort; notes can be synced with your account for easy knowledge collection and management.

8. Rich Extension Support

• Advantage: Built on the Chromium engine, it is compatible with mainstream Chrome extensions. Users can install a vast array of extensions via the Maxthon Extension Center or developer mode, allowing unlimited customization of browser functionality.

9. Privacy Protection & Ad Blocking

• Function: Built-in “Ad Hunter” effectively blocks pop-ups, page ads, and video ads.
• Advantage: Offers “Do Not Track” requests and private browsing mode to protect your online footprint, creating a cleaner, faster browsing environment.
