Xanax seems to be highly inspired by Durex in terms of interface and functionality. Being much lighter in size than Durex, Xanax works smoothly on almost all devices. Xanax features nearly all working add-ons that Durex offered, on top of others. It also comes with a decent cullection of video add-ons like Exodus, Deathstar, and Monster Munch, which makes it an attractive pick for streaming fans.
