About this ranking
StatCounter counts page views on the more than a million sites that use its tracker, so this measures how much each browser is used on those sites, not how many people have it installed. Change is in percentage points against the same month a year earlier.
Browsers built on Chromium, such as Edge and many Chinese browsers, count under their own names here, even though they share Chrome's engine. Browsers that identify themselves as Chrome count as Chrome.
