Brave Browser Mobile Support
1

Description of the issue:

Brave has been crashing on me randomly, typically when doing anything with bookmarks.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open the bookmarks panel (in my latest observation), or
  2. Open a bookmark, or
  3. Edit a bookmark, or
  4. Save a new bookmark

Expected result:

Brave should not crash.

Brave Version (check About Brave):

1.87 (prior Brave versions have also crashed on me)

Mobile Device details

iPhone 16, iOS 26.4 (crashes also occurred when running prior iOS versions)

Additional Information:

I have previously reported similar crashes in April 2025 and September 2025. Could this latest crash be related to those two? The log is attached.

E-mail sent. By the way, I found some additional crash logs on my computer from earlier this year, some from app version 1.86 and some from app version 1.87. May I send any of those in a separate e-mail?

(Received confirmation that Brave Support received e-mail. 3:27 PM EDT)

I am a regular member of the Brave Community, not a Brave team member … just so you know.

I would stick with crashes happening with current versions of Brave Browser. When reporting, other than Brave Browser (iOS), the procedure:

How do I manually submit crash reports?

NOTE: In a Brave Browser New Window, go to: brave://settings/privacy and ENABLE Automatically send diagnostic reports

READ the guidance:

https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/22281484910221-How-do-I-manually-submit-crash-reports

After you click the “Send Now” button, return to brave://crashes and gather up the Crash Report ID numbers that end with a string of zeros. Post the numbers, here, in a new reply. Example of a Crash Report ID number:

22291165410445
22291165410445524×138 11.7 KB

For anybody who drops by and needs to know the Brave Browser (iOS) crash report steps - not like the Crash ID reporting by other Brave Browser applications. See:

‘Helpful Info & FAQ for Brave Users - #44 by Saoiray’

IMPORTANT: You would be sending the Brave Browser (iOS) crash report information that you gathered, to e-mail address: user-support@brave.com

Next, you would make a new reply - at your Original Post regarding your Brave Browser (iOS) crash situation - and using as a guide, what I did - in order to notify Brave Support of exactly what you have sent to them, so they can “connect the dots”:

Thanks for the advice. :slightly_smiling_face: I sent two additional crash logs from Brave 1.87. Confirmation that Brave Support received my latest e-mail came in quickly, at 4:11 PM EDT.

I am experiencing random crashing frequently in 1.88 on ios 26.4.1. I was also getting a few in 26.4 but it has increased dramatically to the point where it’s happening about 4-5 times per day doing just about anything in the browser, including nothing at all.

I got two more crashes in Brave 1.88 on iOS 26.4.1 as well. I e-mailed my crash logs to Brave Support using the steps given above.
