Comments on Brave Nightly for Android

★★★★★ 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

If I'm in incognito tab, there's no contextual search available. Any tips?

★☆☆☆☆ Tara Chand · Aug 2, 2026

Brave Android is a secure and safe browser, and it ranks second in my list of browsers, after Firefox. However, I have a complaint about the Brave Browser team. In some browsers I have used, when you long-press on a Facebook video, an option appears to download that video. This option is not available in Brave Browser, and I would like it to be added so that we can download Facebook videos, and When I download large files, the unzipping process starts much later, and the download speed is slow.

★★☆☆☆ Jason Mehlhoff · Aug 12, 2026

It was working (Origin). Stopped recognizing my Lifetime license. Fold8. It was perfect when it worked. I would love to give it 5 Stars. Every site I open it flashes to the Origin screen then flashes back. Quite annoying. Hopefully they see this, especially since I paid full amount otherwise back to Iron Fox.

★☆☆☆☆ Jordan Waddon · Aug 6, 2026

I love Brave however it doesn't play well with password managers all other browsers work fine, but Brave fails to input the manager information. I'm changing this to 1 star as this has now been a long-standing issue that has not been addressed and affects other people. I will gladly change it to 5 stars when the issue is resolved.
