So i have been using brave for quite a while, and whenever i click on the inbuilt weather app on my ipad, it will take me to the weather site. However, it won’t show as blocking any ads and trackers until i change the shield setting and then change it back to normal again. I have attached 2 screensh…

Also i would like to mention that i’m not tech savvy at all, so please mention that a normal guy could understand.

Changing Shields may break some sites, “Block scripts” will often cause issues, Try just blocking Cross-Site Trackers only. @Yash0

Well usually i don’t block scripts, but out of all 4 options available, only turning on block scripts seemed to display the number of trackers and ads blocked.

I would test clearing various settings in Brave Shields & Privacy. Limit shields too just Cross-site Trackers for the time being. (The force closing Brave).

Yep, clearing settings and then turning them on again seemed to do the trick for the weather site. Any suggestions for WhatsApp web? @fanboynz

[image] Yash0: However, there is no other way of uploading the pdfs other than choosing print option, but in that case, as i have shown in the screenshot, it adds an additional “blob:” and the date and time at which i have opened the pdf, which i don’t want. Safari however can directly upload pd…

Yeah no on chrome it’s insanely hard to get it to request desktop site…i have to click 5-6 times request desktop site on chrome to open WhatsApp web there. As a result, i have only opened WhatsApp web in safari and brave, where you can request desktop sites easily. In short, i have no idea about chr…

Check Firefox on IOS see if its replicable (since we’re orginally based on this). Would also check Chrome also, just to avoid “Its Brave’s fault” when the same issue occurs with other browsers.
