Dolphin Anty or Octo Browser: which should you pick?
Pick Dolphin Anty if
You want more profiles for less: a free plan with five, and up to 60 on the $10 Starter plan, with the option to keep profiles on one computer.
Pick Octo Browser if
You want the newer published engine and a profile export, and cloud storage is fine for you.
If neither fits: Neither adds a second person below a mid-range plan. If your team is two people on a small budget, check the prices on both.

If you stop paying
- Dolphin Anty Cloud data is deleted 45 days after sync is switched off, or at once if you ask.
- Octo Browser Kept 6 months without an active subscription, then every profile in the account is deleted.
- Donut Browser Nothing to delete. No second copy exists.
