Initially, I was really impressed by Brave. It seems like they put a great deal of thought into their app (To be honest, I just kept finding things to like about it). However, the dealbreaker is the bookmarks widget. There is NO setting to adjust the background (I like it translucent). Unfortunately, for that reason alone, I'm uninstalling. BTW, I've downloaded this app a few times over the last couple years (just to see whats developed) and thus far no response.

I had this at a perfect 5/5, but after I lost 20+ tabs just now with an accidental "swipe" of my thumb (which was meant to be a tap) and have no way to get them back beyond hitting the "undo" feature which pops up for all of about 1 second, I'm pretty pissed. They don't show up in the history. Still, I can only knock it down a couple of stars as overall it's been pretty good to me until now. (I was not paying attention during the single second the "undo" feature came up.

I love Brave! I do wish that profiles and extensions persisted to the mobile app, though, and there seems to be a bug that reapplies the strict https setting no matter how many times I change it to "whenever possible" rather than "always" (thus the 4/5 stars). Other than that, it's a terrific browser both on mobile as well as on desktop! I use it on my phone, PC, and Chromebook. It's the best!!
