## 📌 Key features of Octo Browser

### 1️⃣ Human-like typing simulation

The **"Paste as Human Typing"** feature lets you paste text character by character, simulating real typing. This greatly reduces the risk of raising red flags with anti-fraud systems.

**How to use it:**

* Copy the text you need to your clipboard.
* In Octo Browser, right-click in a text input field and select **"Type text from clipboard."**
* Or use the hotkey: **CTRL + SHIFT + E**.
* Octo will then automatically type out the text at variable speeds — just like a real person.

### 2️⃣ Installing extensions

### 4️⃣ Cookie robot

The **Cookie Robot** in Octo Browser automatically visits the URLs you provide and collects cookies and pixels. This helps your profile look more "real" and "warmed up" to anti-fraud systems.

**How it works:**

* The more URLs you load, the longer the robot will run.
* Once done, all collected cookies are saved to the profile.
* You can view the collected cookies here: `chrome://settings/content/all`.
