Brave is a fast, private web browser that blocks ads and trackers on every site, automatically. No settings to change, no extensions to install.
Over 125 million people browse with Brave. It's free, open source, and independent — we don't sell your browsing data.
Everything below is built into the browser. One app, not a stack of them.
BLOCK ADS ON EVERY SITE
Brave Shields stops banner ads, pop-ups, autoplay interruptions, and the ads that play before and during videos. Same on news sites, shopping sites, forums and video pages — no per-site setup, no ad blocker extension. It dismisses cookie consent banners too, and it's on from your first tab.
PRIVATE BROWSING THAT BLOCKS TRACKERS
Private mode in most browsers only hides your history from your own phone. Brave blocks the cross-site trackers and fingerprinting scripts that follow you from a shopping page to your social feed, strips tracking codes from links you copy, and turns on Global Privacy Control by default.
SHRED: DELETE ONE SITE'S DATA, NOT ALL OF IT
Clearing browser data usually logs you out of everything. Shred deletes the cookies and storage for one site and leaves your other sessions intact. Set Auto Shred to run whenever you close a tab.
BRAVE SEARCH: A PRIVATE SEARCH ENGINE, BUILT IN
Brave Search is the default search engine in the browser, running on its own independent index — not resold results from Google or Bing. It doesn't profile you or log your searches. Ask Brave puts search results and AI answers in one place. Switch search engines any time.
BRAVE LEO: A FREE AI ASSISTANT
Summarise a long article, translate a page, or draft a reply without leaving the tab. Choose from several AI models. Leo doesn't record your conversations, share them, or use them to train models.
BRAVE NEWS: A FEED WITH NO PROFILE BEHIND IT
Personalise a news feed from hundreds of sources or any RSS feed with Brave News.
FASTER PAGES, LESS MOBILE DATA
Ads and trackers are most of what a modern page downloads. Blocking them means fewer requests, less data and less battery drain. We rebuilt Brave's ad blocking engine to use 75% less memory, so it stays responsive with many tabs open.
MAKE BRAVE YOUR DEFAULT BROWSER
Open Settings, scroll to Brave, choose Default Browser App. Every link you tap — from Mail, Messages or any app — opens with ad and tracker blocking already on.
WHAT'S FREE AND WHAT ISN'T
Free: the browser, ad and tracker blocking, Shred, Brave Search, Brave Leo, Brave News, Sync and night mode.

Good browser, thanks for the simple design. Of the bugs - when opening a new tab, the "search" button is not displayed in the bottom panel. The "+" appears again. This is inconvenient when I use the search bar at the top. I hope I managed to explain the problem, I used a translator. I would also like to have the option to replace "new tab" with "home" in the bottom panel.
Love this t
Cheburila
It has so good products inside. I love it. I’m already successfully replace a google search engine with a brave one and I’m very happy. Integrated assistant is decent, video calls are good so far. Brave is developing so good. I’m inviting more and more friends to this TOOL and most of them say that they are not considering to get back to other browsers. Well done, guys. Good luck.
The best browser
TrueGodOfDeath
Brave is the best browser there is, first of all because it blocks ads and malware links, second it based on Chromium an compatible with chrome extensions, third it have superior settings build in search and AI.
Great browser, but there are two problems
Iksayking
First of all I still see ads, even after disabling rewards, which is kinda annoying.BAT idea is interesting, but I want to consider when I turn them on by myself.And brave playlist controls are a little inconvenient (too big).
