This used to be without a doubt, my absolute favorite browser to use on my phone. It did everything flawlessly and I never had a single issue... Until now. For some reason, with no rhyme or reason; the app now fails to block instrusive popup ads. I literally changed nothing and it just suddenly fails to do with it once did best. It seemed like updating it fixed it, but once again I am getting super intrusive pop ups even when I set everything to be as aggressive as possible. What a letdown.

Thanks for taking the time to write in and provide feedback. Can you confirm your current Brave version? Are there certain sites that you're experiencing the pop-ups on?

Great privacy options built in from the start. Be aware if you set privacy options too high some sites (recaptcha) might see things such as a lack of history as suspicious and flag you as a potential bot, which can get annoying. There is certainly a balance to be found in the settings for daily use; the "shields up" feature is also useful if there are site usability issues.

This is the best browser you can have because it does a perfect job at blocking ads. I've gone to websites through regular browsers and tested it along with Brave. It successfully blocks every single ad, and it appears as if there was never supposed to be an ad there to begin with. No "blocked ad" icon or anything like that in between paragraphs (where an ad would typically be); if you're reading an article, it simply is the paragraphs. It also blocks all ads on YouTube if you log in thru Brave
