Battery Drain on iPhone

Brave is using an excessive amount of power on my iPhone and it heats up pretty fast, meanwhile safari doesn’t cause any issues. App background refresh is disabled. Reinstall, hard reset and normal reset is done, but has no effect. Removed all open tabs, still no difference. Also have a brand new battery installed (issue was there before this).

I see this is a known problem. Is there a fix or will this be solved in the next update?

  • Brave version: 1.88 (137)

  • iOS: 26.4.2

  • iPhone 13 mini

Safari is a native browser. It should perform better.
