Browser is great, more comfortable than most browsers I have seen. But it randomly crashes with all its tabs, i have to keep fetching every tab from history every single time which is not so great. And there is a unique problem like the browser maintains two distinct sessions with two different sets of open tabs and the browser opens randomly with a set of tabs every week or so. I don't think this is a device specific problem, if it is so any tips on how to avoid it would be appreciated.

Hi Ajay, thanks for taking the time to right in. Have you enabled the multiple windows setting under -> appearance? I'm wondering if this is the cause.

As a browser I love it, but it's been having issues where whenever I try to type something, the app freezes and closes, before my keyboard opens up on my home screen. I'd love for this to be fixed, but judging by other reviews, it seems like it's been an issue for a long while, and is going to stay that way. I'd recommend it if you're willing to deal with frequently reopening the browser whenever you want to type something.

Great on battery life and lots of features. A great privacy-oriented browser. Syncs with Brave on other devices without storing it online. Great at blocking ads although sometimes (rarely) websites don't work with because it's so aggressive but it's easy to turn it off for those sites. Open source. Downside: Too many settings related to cryptocurrency. Regardless, I use it on all my devices.
