UC Browser (also known as UCWEB) is a web browser for mobile devices, such as mobile phones created UC Mobile, a Chinese software company headquartered in Guangzhou, and with offices in Wuhan, Beijing, Chengdu, People's Republic of China, and Gurgaon, India. The web browser increases speeds by not loading web pages on the phone, but instead compressing and rendering them on a server,[1] similar to the operation of a thin client.

The browser is available for a number of mobile platforms,[2] from low memory phones to high-end phones.[3]
