When I open a site on brave browser, It displays the following message at bottom. **This page uses too much memory so brave removed some content** After choosing to **Show original** and letting full page reload, next time it does not pops. ![Screenshot_20190407-204527](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/brave/original/3X/8/4/84feee15a4b739b909c6c23c5be6b485f8edda96.png) **Description of the issue:** **Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary):** 1. Just Install brave browser on phone and going for any site, 2. Using Private browsing. **Reproduces how often:** Everytime I open a site (even on [Google.com](http://Google.com) which should not take much memory). **Brave version:** 1.0.89, Chromium 73.0.3683.90 **Device Model:** Nokia 1 **Android 8.1 Go edition** **Reproducible on current live release (yes/no):** Yes **Additional Information:** I have seen that this issue does not occur on some phones that I have which are full Android unlike Android Go on my phone. This never happened in earlier versions of brave in my phone. ---

cc @Serg @sriram @Mattches on this. Unable to reproduce on my device. Maybe specific to this device/OS. ---

@NinjaByte, Thanks for reaching out. This is a known issue but we’re still gathering data on it. Would you mind telling me – if you have it installed – if Chrome throws the same error on your device? ---

This is not reproduced in Google Chrome or any other Chromium based browser like Kiwi which I have tested. Thank you. ---

I tried the same Brave version on other phones which had full Android unlike my Android Go variant. Also my phone RAM is 1 GB so it might be a phone issue as well. ---

Clear android app cache for brave and I think it is a ram issue. What is the ram size of your device ---

@Dgenies After doing that, it does not solve the problem. Even after reinstalling. My RAM is 1GB with Android Go. ---

@Dgenies As it is a 1 GB RAM phone, 2 or 3 apps at max. Otherwise phone becomes slow. My typical use is one app at a time with WhatsApp or other app to see some message. Otherwise the second app is also not there. I think it’s an issue with automatic tab discarding. There was a flag chrome://flags/#automatic-tab-discarding in Desktop for this feature but not available in Mobile version of chrome or brave. ---

Just switched phones. Had Moto e4 now Moto E5 go. Getting same message. Brave is worthless if I can’t turn the message off. I can’t even use it now. ---

Sorry to hear this I would request the to remove that notification be enable. I do not use Android go. The closest device I have to Android go is Android one and this problem doesn’t exist. @mattches please read this and add my suggestion into the next update if possible ---

I tried brave browser latest version on an old phone with identical specs such as 1 GB RAM but with full version of Android not like Android Go. The problem doesn’t exists on full Android. Even latest beta release of Brave ( [v1.0.90-rc.5](https://github.com/brave/browser-android-tabs/releases/tag/v1.0.90-rc.5)) does not have the issue solved. ---

@NinjaByte, It’s likely that the Android Go OS is causing issues – I’ve reached out to the Android team to confirm (or deny) this and/or for any additional input. I appreciate your patience. ---

Hi, this has bugged me too since latest system update on …1st April 🤬… android 8.1.0 (Nokia 1 TA-1060) Would like to stick with Brave so hopefully some kind genius will sort it soon. ---

Any update on issue @Mattches. I have jumped from browsers to browsers, Kiwi, Bromite, Samsung Internet, Firefox and so on. But none of them powerful yet simple as brave. I seriously want to come back to latest version. Currently I have taken refugee in older version of Brave (v. 1.0.88) from github. ---

Hey everyone, the issue is fixed now in brave version 1.0.93 based on Chromium 74. Available on [Github here](https://github.com/brave/browser-android-tabs/releases/tag/v1.0.93-rc.1). Thanks to the brave team for their bravery. ---

Another user on Twitter (also using a Nokia 1, Android Go device) [reported](https://twitter.com/glitched ____ /status/1127089926455959552) the same experience while browsing the Web in Brave on Android. ---
