Ratings and reviews

Brave starts out pretty great. Whenever I get a new phone and redownload it for the first time, it succeeds in being the perfect ad blocker but after a few months, it stops blocking the ads and pop ups and no matter what I do, I can never fix it, which is the only reason I use it to begin with. I really love using it but I wish it was consistent.

Easily replaced Google for me. Much better AND much less bias of search results. Edit: It was great until recently. The picture-in-picture randomly stopped working. That was my main use for Brave. I tried everything, even deleting and reinstalling the app... I just lost all my tabs and everything I've accumulated over years. Didn't realize there wasn't a way I signed in to save my sheeeet. So that sucks

I used to really like brave, but with recent updates as usual they decide to ruin everything by changing little things that don't need to be fixed. they are usually minor things that they could easily leave up to the user if they like it, but it's really annoying to open an app you've used for years and they completely change the way it looks and acts. you aren't the only private browser in town, brave. get it together.
