Ratings and reviews

Great Brave App with Minor Navigation Issues. This app is fantastic overall—no advertisements, and it's free to use, which is a huge plus. However, I find navigation could be more intuitive. Specifically, if the screen closes, it can be difficult to quickly find what I was watching. Another feature that would enhance the experience is Chrome cast support. This would make it much easier to watch content on a larger screen. Despite these minor issues, it's still a great app. Highly recommended!

Ad blocker works amazingly, such a relief from the constant YouTube ads. I wish they had a few fun features like opera gx though. But I only use it for the use of YouTube, so it's not really a must have. I must say, the one downside is the 10 second loop buffer if I go higher than 1080p. Which isn't a good thing if I wanted to watch a higher quality video to get a better experience. But overall, 4 stars.

Excellent browser!! Thank God I made the switch! I can now browse without ads and videos auto playing and other distractions popping up all over the screen. I can actually read a recipe from start to finish without every other sentence being wrapped around another Google ad. My anxiety levels when researching information have gone right down. I don't know why I hadn't heard about this browser sooner. It was fairly easy to make the switch too with the import from google/chrome/edge feature.
