Ratings and reviews

I like the privacy features and have tried migrating to Brave as my default browser after learning Opera is now Chinese-owned. But Brave is buggy and nonfunctional at times. Often jumps back to a page/tab you just left when you try to select or edit text in another page. It randomly shuts down or closes tabs for no apparent reason. I'm going to try it a little longer but if these issues persist , I'll try another browser. Would be improved with a reader mode for pages that allow it too.

My opinion on the app has increased. Lots of good features, works pretty well, and it's pretty fast. But it does get hung up. Sometimes it won't load anything and you need to delete the tab close and reopen the app to get to the website at all. Turning on/off the brave shield sometimes works. And this issue happens constantly. Other than that it's my preferred app on android, windows, and Linux.

Awesome app if you want ad free internet access, and who doesn't want that. Also it saves tons of space, by blocking ads and deleting spam. You can even turn off your phone and your music will keep playing, so you can have it in your pocket without messing with your touch screen. It has a much better browser interface than Google as well. Awesome app.
