It'd be 4 stars because of the amazing adblocker, maybe even 5 if it didn't have this one issue. When you tap on the tab button and then try to use the Android back button to exit a page, it doesn't work as expected. Instead of exiting the page, it often takes you back to the previous site or, sometimes, just closing the app. It's harder to get back to the tab I was previously in. Usually, I'm in sites that require you to save before you exit, so you can see why this is a problem.

This is my go-to browser on my phone because it is fast and blocks ads well by default. With a configuration setting, it also lets me listen to Web sites in the background or with the screen off. Unfortunately, the lack of FIDO2 or U2F support is a massive security downgrade from chrome. It affects not just web browsing but any app that embeds a browser for the sign in process. I frequently have to switch my browser to Chrome temporarily when logging into an app.

Wow, I love this browser. I've been using it for almost two years. I got it on my computer AND phone! I love the lack of ads; it saves me a lot of time and irritation I totally recommend it! Edit: hey, I've been having a few problems lately- it disappeared from my phone, but it still is installed? I can only open it from the app store. Uninstalling and reinstalling, but that isn't the only issue I've had recently. Not sure if it was an update or what? Still love this app, though! Just problems.

What's new

In this release we:

- Added the ability to copy a “clean” URL link, which means a link minus any corresponding tracking codes that companies like Facebook might have appended at the end of the URL.
- Added the ability to include custom filter lists in Brave’s ad blocking.
- Upgraded to Chromium 117.
