Hello everyone
Initially, my thanks to the developers and the community for making an already excellent browser even better. Brave is an uncompromising option for those who are looking for security and freedom from ads.
Taking into account the latest updates and additional features, I’ve noticed a number of things that, in my opinion, are important:
-
The settings include sections where you can select and activate the Wallet, Leo AI, VPN, and others; however, if you deactivate these features, their icons don’t disappear from the toolbar — they need to be hidden using a separate command from the toolbar menu. It seems to me that it would be more convenient and logical to display function icons only when the corresponding functions are enabled and in use.
-
In the main version of the app, my maximum option for refusing to store data is to delete everything, but there is a menu item where you can select Local history storage — at least one day. Where can I find the logic? In the same settings section, at the top, there is an item called Delete browsing data. The extreme settings contradict each other: if I don’t want to store anything, why do I need 1 day of local data storage?
If I’m wrong about something or don’t understand something, please help me figure it out. Thanks!
