Hello, I am formally requesting an option to disable the private tab with some kind of password requirement to reenable it on the iOS app for the Brave Browser. I recently learned this was possible on desktop through Group Policy or editing the system registry (though I’m unaware if this requires any passwords or something else to reenable), however this is not the case for iOS to my knowledge, and I’m more so looking for a settings option rather than that setup. However the main reason for this request is that (while I won’t go into specifics) I’m attempting to beat a certain addiction and the private tab is the only thing standing in my way right now. I’ve been able to successfully block websites through the regular iOS settings and don’t know the password to disable those specific blocks, however this doesn’t account for the images tab as for whatever reason you’re not able to complete filter out certain images and even the ones that are blurred can simply be unblurred in the images tab. Essentially the safe search doesn’t work how it’s described from my experience. That is why I’m requesting this feature as I have enough self-control to avoid using the normal tab, so some kind of disabling option that requires a password to reenable it would greatly benefit me and possibly others as well. Thank you for taking the time to read and consider my request.
