Brave Web Browser is a free, fast, secure, open-source web browsing application based on Chromium available for all devices. It includes a built-in ad blocker that prevents tracking, enhances security, and optimizes data usage and battery performance.
Brave is more than just a web browser. It’s a new approach to how the web functions. Brave aims to improve the web by offering users a safer, faster, and better browsing experience. Additionally, it supports content creators through a novel attention-based rewards system.
This browser was created by a team of privacy-focused, performance-oriented innovators, including the inventor of JavaScript and the co-founder of Mozilla. It begins by giving you back control. Experience unmatched speed, security, and privacy through tracker blocking. Earn rewards by opting into our privacy-respecting ads and helping publishers receive their fair share of internet revenue.
Browse Faster โ Load pages 3x to 6x sooner.
Watch Brave in Motion, head-to-head-to-head with Chrome and Firefox. Brave Masses web page 3 times as quickly out of the field with nothing to put in, study, or handle.
Switching is simple โ Import and proceed to the place you left off
Itโs easy to import your settings from your old browser. You can do it during the welcome tour or later through the menus. All of your old browser profiles will appear in a list. You can import other browser data through the main menu item called โImport Bookmarks and Settings.โ
Support your favorite websites with Brave Rewards.
Turn on Brave Rewards which provides some access to the websites you frequent most. Earn frequent flyer-like tokens (BAT) for viewing privacy-respecting adverts by Brave and assist in funding the content material you’re keen on.
Browsing online with Brave is free: with Brave Rewards activated, you can help the content material creators you’re keen on on the quantity that works for you.
The browser can routinely check and distribute your contributions primarily based on your time on websites you spend. Or, you can select tip websites immediately, and even provide a set month-to-month tip quantity.
All of this works while keeping your browsing history private. Your funds are distributed to website owners through a nameless ledger system, so you may not be recognized primarily based on the websites you visit and help. Over 10,000 publishers and content creators have registered to obtain Brave Rewards.
Remember: these contributions are non-obligatory โ looking online with Brave Web Browser is free.
