I hope this message finds you well. I recently tried to install Brave Browser on my Android 9 device, but found that it wasn’t available on the Google Play Store. While I was able to download it from APKMirror, I felt a bit uneasy about the process and had to verify the APK’s authenticity to ensure my privacy and security.
I believe it would be incredibly helpful if Brave could provide official APK downloads directly on their website, especially for users on older Android versions who may not have access to the Play Store. This would not only improve accessibility but also give users more confidence in the safety of the download.
Thank you for your amazing work on Brave — it’s a fantastic browser, and I’m happy to use it once I’ve confirmed its legitimacy. I hope this feedback is helpful and that you consider expanding your download options in the future.
Thanks for the reply. I appreciate the information, but I think it’s worth noting that not everyone is familiar with GitHub or technical release pages, especially users who may not be as experienced with Android or software downloads.
While it’s great that Brave provides APKs via GitHub, it would be more helpful and user-friendly if Brave offered direct download links for older Android versions on their official website (brave.com), or even kept the last working version available on the Google Play Store as a separate download.
This would help improve accessibility and reduce the need for users to search for unofficial or third-party sources like APKMirror.
