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.

works great when phones screen isn't locked. once it's locked and you're listening to something, as soon as an ad should come up it does nothing. when successful at unlocking you'll come to realize the phone is non responsive and have to force restart at the worst and if you're lucky it will be very very very slow but eventually will respond and then once the app is closed the phone works again. wish I could use it with the screen off.

Been a loyal user for years now but the app is starting to have some problems. After a few days, my browser fails to load my bookmarks (and I can't make new ones) until I delete all tabs and exit out of it completely. Youtube no longer works with picture in picture which is a shame. Other than that, it's a great browser
