Ratings and reviews

Like others, I had a problem where tapping on something (like the search field on Google) would make Brave crash and boot me back to my home screen. This happened very frequently. Since getting a new phone, this no longer happens, but I wish they'd fix it for everyone. I also wish reader mode worked better. Aside from that, I love the native ad-blocking and that it truly randomizes your fingerprint unlike most other "private" browsers. It's my daily driver.

Happy with the turn on option of the multiple blocking of pop-ups coming from various countries (wording as the language spoken in the country, ie. Chinese, Russian, etc....). It is so annoying to search for something benign as a recipe and constant pop-ups repeated appear while you're viewing ingredient list. I have had to literally close out the annoying pop-ups over and over again without even quickly looking as the ingredient list because pop-ups appear that rapidly.

This is my new favorite browser for mobile. Sorry Firefox.. you'll still be #1 on my PC though! The ad/pop-up blocking here is perfect. It saves me so much frustration. Others say they block but this one actually does. And without any loss of functionality either. It's also fast. It's secure. It does everything I ask of it and more. Keep up the great work devs! Thank you.
