# [Android Components](../../README.md) > Samples > Browser
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A simple browser app that is composed from the browser components in this repository.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
⚠️ **Note**: This sample application is only a very basic browser. For a full-featured reference browser implementation see the **[reference-browser repository](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/reference-browser)**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Build variants
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The browser app uses a product flavor:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **channel**: Using different release channels of GeckoView: _nightly_, _beta_, _production_. In most cases you want to use the _nightly_ flavor as this will support all of the latest functionality.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Glean SDK support
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This sample application comes with Glean SDK telemetry initialized by default, but with upload disabled (no data is being sent).
|
||
|
|
This is for creating a simpler metric testing workflow for Gecko engineers that need to add their metrics to Gecko and expose them to Mozilla mobile products.
|
||
|
|
See [this bug](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1592935) for more context.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order to enable data upload for testing purposes, change the `Glean.setUploadEnabled(false)` to `Glean.setUploadEnabled(true)` in [`SampleApplication.kt`](src/main/java/org/mozilla/samples/browser/SampleApplication.kt).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Glean will send metrics from any Glean-enabled component used in this sample application:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [engine-gecko-nightly](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/blob/main/components/browser/engine-gecko-nightly/docs/metrics.md);
|
||
|
|
- [engine-gecko-beta](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/blob/main/components/browser/engine-gecko-beta/docs/metrics.md);
|
||
|
|
- [engine-gecko](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/blob/main/components/browser/engine-gecko/docs/metrics.md);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Data review for enabling the Glean SDK for this application can be found [here](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1592935#c6).
