Description of the issue: Brave on iPhone no longer suggests websites from my browsing history when I type in the address bar. The websites are still present in History, but they do not appear as autocomplete suggestions.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open Brave on iPhone.

  2. Visit a website multiple times (e.g. YouTube).

  3. Confirm that the website appears in History.

  4. Tap the address bar and type the website name or part of its URL.

  5. Observe that no history-based suggestion appears.

Expected result: Websites from browsing history should appear as autocomplete/adress bar suggestions when typing their name or URL, especially frequently visited sites.

Brave Version( check About Brave): 1.89

Mobile Device details: Iphone 13 with IOS Version 26.4.1

Additional Information: The browsing history is present and not empty, this issue occurs even for websites visited many times.
