Comments on Brave Nightly for Android

★★★★★ Bruno Catari · Jul 24, 2026

Love brave for multiple reasons, it let you watch YouTube w/o commercials, it pays you, and it runs great

★★★★★ Omar Faruk · Jul 27, 2026

I've been using Brave Nightly for a while, and I'm genuinely impressed with how fast and smooth it is. Even though it's a testing version, the browser feels stable and responsive. The built-in ad blocker and tracker protection make browsing cleaner, faster, and much more private. I also love getting access to new features before the stable release. The interface is clean, pages load quickly, and overall performance is excellent. Occasionally, I encounter minor bugs, which is expected in a nightl

★★★★★ Keith Wass · Jun 25, 2026

Great app, I have the regular brave app and the nightly for watching YT videos while I internet search

★★★★★ Mohamed Berkat · Jul 7, 2026

Common guys we need extension support, stop toggling brave colors and its "look-see" and start making the extension support functionality, seriously... it took you forever... sorry about the words

★★☆☆☆ Heno Alambre · Jul 9, 2026

Brave used to be much better but when you keep updating things screwing things up and making things worse than you start losing Stars. Now when I try to open up full screen on my phone on YouTube are any other video platform, and it's all over the map and not even the proper screen ratio. Never used to be that way always was perfect until all the idiotic updates. You want your stars back then fix the bloody problem.

★☆☆☆☆ mizzajl · Jun 13, 2026

Cannot sync without using camera. I don't want to grant the app permission to use my camera.

★☆☆☆☆ Aasheesh Sahu · Jul 27, 2026

Please add video controls, at least orientation change.

★★☆☆☆ Yoihenba Khumallambam · Jul 16, 2026

It's so good at everything, but it always has a problem with YouTube it'll randomly cut off some of the lower part of a video. It has been cutting off like an inch of the lower part of the video from yesterday I think
