No PDF download in IOS

*Hey, I’ve been running into this problem lately where I can view, but not download pdf files in brave on IOS. If I go to “my actions” and expand them, there is a link to Downloads, which opens the IOS files app to downloads folder with no option to download. There’s also no option in share, like some other browsers. In many cases, I can’t go back to the link and do it from there, because its opened by javascript. When I asked on online bot about it, it told me about a hack using print, which lets me generate a pdf of the pdf using the print to save it, but it creates a weird file with a new name. Why not just save? I live a rural area with spotty connectivity and the ability to save some documents, including page as a single file is really handy.

Otherwise I love everything about Brave! Keep up the great work!*

Testing …

I clicked on the simple PDF file link, and the PDF file opened in Brave Browser (iOS).

Next, I clicked on the Share button at the bottom of my display.

Result is a list of options … and I chose Save to Files:
