The built-in Browser panel lets you open web pages inside Naia and have the AI avatar perform web tasks.
Notice: The Browser panel is currently experimental and may be unstable. You may occasionally experience display issues or unexpected Chrome process termination. Stabilization work is ongoing.
Requirements
The built-in browser requires Google Chrome. If Chrome is not installed, an installation prompt will be shown.
flatpak install com.google.Chrome
Opening the Panel
Click the Browser icon in the right sidebar. Chrome will be embedded inside the Naia window.
