Create your first browser profile

Create your first browser profile

If you are going to use Incogniton, you will of course need to create a browser profile. A browser profile is unique with its own fingerprints – this prevents multiple browser profiles from being linked to each other. In this guide we will explain how to create a new unique virtual browser profile and get started in Incogniton.

1

Step 1: Create new browser profile

When you are in the Incogniton overview, click on the Create Single button down left, the New profile button up right or the Go to profile creation button in the middle.

Step 2: Choose the profile settings

After this, the overview page of the new browser profile will appear. On this page you can add the name, group, operating system, and the browser version of the Incogniton browser you want to use. We recommend that you always use the most recent browser version. If you would like to, you can also hit the button Randomize fingerprint. This means the hardware configuration and navigator settings of the browser profile will randomly change.
