Please edit your Original Post (“OP”) above, in order to include:

- Brave Browser version numbers
- Android device info

* * *

Try:

- Clearing the storage and cache for **Google Play Services** in your Android settings.

- Uninstalling and reinstalling the Brave app to reset local configurations.

- **Update Google Play Services** - Open the Play Store, search “Google Play Services,” and update if available.

- **Safe Mode** : Booting into **Safe Mode** to check if a third-party app is interfering with the setup process.

- Temporarily disable Site-Specific Brave Shields \> Trackers & Ads ← this may rule out Brave’s ad/tracker blocking interfering with the login flow.

* * *

**Why it happens**

- The popup **“Google Play Services error, Tap to finish setup in Brave”** appears because Brave on Android has a **hard dependency on Google Play Services** for certain features, including some authentication/login flows. When you try to log into Amazon (or other sites), Brave attempts to use a Play Services-backed API to complete the flow, and when it fails, it shows this error dialog.

- If Play Services is **disabled, outdated, or not responding** , Brave falls back to this “Tap to finish setup” prompt.

- The fact that you _can_ still manually enter your username/password for Amazon but **other sites block you** suggests the failure is in a Play Services-mediated step (e.g., a redirect or token exchange) that those sites depend on.

PS. If Amazon offers “Continue with email” instead of a social/Play-linked option, use that to bypass the Play Services call.
