@BrendanEich @gzy2001 @fanboynz @yawaramin @drivinginkorea @fmarier thanks for the report. We are going to take a look at it. There seems a general problem with passkey detection that comes from upstream issues.chromium.org/issues/4889483….
English

Hey @BrendanEich any way Brave could somehow implement "disable passkeys"? They are the single most annoying innovation in web authentication and I would like websites to stop asking me to auth using them (similar to how notifications and location sharing can be toggled off)
English

@AniHay1984 @brave @BrendanEich @_brianclifton Thanks for the feedback @AniHay1984 . We are going to prioritize that in the following weeks.
English

anytime I visit a website on my Android phone that requires a password I have to go back from @brave to Google Chrome because Brave doesn't support Google Password Manager. Please fix this well documented bug: github.com/brave/brave-br… @BrendanEich @sergzh_ @_brianclifton
English

@BrendanEich @cyberspace2140 @brave @fanboynz @BraveSampson YouTube updated their site in some regions, affecting Brave's background playback. The fix is ready github.com/brave/brave-co… and drops in Nightly on Monday, Feb 2nd. Please test it—if all's well, we'll push to stable soon.
English

@cyberspace2140 @brave @SergZh_ No need to double-post. @fanboynz as well as @sergzh_ may be able to help. For extra coverage, cc’ing @BraveSampson too.
English

Hi @BrendanEich, with the latest update of Brave, my YouTube background playback for my Motorola Android 14 phone is no longer working, I've reached out to Brave senior engineer @SergZh_ who previous fixed this issue after a previous update, but maybe he is busy. Please help
English

@the404coder @BrendanEich @franseco999 @brave @bvsriram It could be if there is a demand. I don't think there are a lot of people who develop on mobile devices. It's much more convenient to do it on a laptop/desktop.
English

@SergZh_ @BrendanEich @franseco999 @brave Can brave have devtools in the mobile version?

English

@BrendanEich @franseco999 @brave it's in the roadmap for 2026. What particular extensions do you want to use on mobile?
English

@BrendanEich @skuteli Could you check if you have Brave Rewards enabled? It's under Settings -> Brave Rewards. Websites could also bring notifications if you allowed them to notify you. It would be cool if you could show an example of the notification.
English

Turning non-deterministic, hallucinating LLMs, as the basis of so-called agentic browser AI, *on by default* without explicit user consent, is against Brave's user-first principles.
It may be that we are alone in taking this position on principle.
Re: theverge.com/tech/845216/mo…,

BrendanEich@BrendanEich
@ErisButRacist @brave @ShyOwl888 That's the plan. You have to read into the X thread to find the link to it, but please see the blog post at brave.com/blog/ai-browsi…, specifically this part: "Like all AI features in Brave, AI browsing is completely optional...".
English

@BrendanEich @eliethesaiyan @fanboynz desktop version of prime video works correct on my Pixel 9. Do you see the screen cut off in landscape view as well? Does it happen when you actually watch a video or on titles selection as well? We likely could fix a mobile version of website(by intercepting an Intent)
English

@anil_makadia @BrendanEich @brave Could you explain more about what specifically is inconvenient? Do you mean that it's hard to reach the edit button when the keyboard is open?
English

@SergZh_ @BrendanEich @brave Request: please add behavior where the focused address bar moves above the keyboard (or an option to keep it bottom-focused). That would make editing URLs on phones far easier. Thanks! 🙏 @SergZh_ @brave @BrendanEich
English

@lukemulks @bazirani01 @brave @BhavaCom @LizSails that is done and going to be released in 1.84.x this week github.com/brave/brave-co…
English

@bazirani01 @brave @BhavaCom @LizSails Cc'ing @SergZh_ who may have some context for where support for this is on roadmap.
English

This week on #TheBraveTechnologist, @BhavaCom Founder & CEO @LizSails explores the common fears and misconceptions that lead to resistance against AI adoption and how teams can overcome them.
🎧 Listen to the full episode, hosted by @LukeMulks, here: brave.com/podcast/e93/

@BrendanEich @QuackyQuacky1 @brave I agree that it would be beneficial for user on older and low range Android devices. Google's Pixel has AV1 encoding since 2021 Pixel 6 model, Samsung also has it mostly on flagship and mid range models for around 4-5 years.
English

@QuackyQuacky1 @brave Cc: @sergzh_ because if we can detect that no hw accel for AV1, we should force VP9.
English

@BrendanEich @brave Feature request: option in settings to disable software decoding of AV1 codec. Youtube forces this on people by default but it uses quite a lot of cpu and battery if you don't have a hardware decoder. Currently I use the extension enhanced-h264ify.
English

@BrendanEich @yoerichofficial there is an active work on chromium codebase currently to make extensions available on desktop Android(Chrome OS that is going to be migrated on Android OS) issues.chromium.org/issues/4439844…. It will be much easier to enable it for all Android device after that work is done.
English

@yoerichofficial Don't reply-jack. If you are asking about extensions for Android Brave, best to start a fresh thread and include @sergzh_. Our hope was Kiwi which MS bought, so Edge now may provide some (.zip file,delayed) open source gru to help us. Or not!
English

Did you know that Chrome ships a (degraded) version of the famous EasyList adblocking filter list pioneered by AdBlock/AdBlockPlus (originally they were Firefox add-ons)? But not to block ads, of course!
See thread: down-thread explains this irony, up- script provenance lossage.
pes10k / pes40k.bsky.social (but in a funny way)@pes10k
@BrendanEich @ar_io_network @brave Sure! So, a fun trivia bnit is that Chrome ships a simplified version of EasyList as part of a system they call AdTracker. AdTracker checks URLs of iframes and remote scripts on the stack against EasyList to determine if something ad-related is running source.chromium.org/chromium/chrom…

@Gauravgs678 @Zoho @svembu @ZohoCares Thank you for the feedback! We are actively working on various video improvements, and the PiP icon for YouTube was one of them. We'll continue to evaluate user feedback as we develop our video capabilities.
English

@brave @lukemulks @BraveSampson @BrendanEich @_brianclifton
Hi team,
Kindly incorporate the suggested functionality it will enhance the experience of every user..
1. There a suggestion on UI of online video on brave
As of no fast forwarding, volume and brightness control

English

@BrendanEich @super_slavic We don't have any timeline, but that's possible. Upstream is also working to bring them on ChromeOS (Google confirms it’s merging ChromeOS and Android). All of that should help us with maintaining the code.
English

@super_slavic Tagging @sergzh_ who can give best answer, now that Edge may be doing extensions post-MS acq of Kiwi. In Kiwi era, we did not want to go downrev and try to backport secbug fixes. Also crash rate too high for our scale of user base.
English


@SergZh_ hey Serg I just wanted to let you know that this en.akinator.com
website isn't working properly on the android version of brave.
English

@SergZh_ hey Serg how come brave on android doesn't support android 8 and 9 anymore?
English

@the404coder @bvsriram @BrendanEich @XboxSurvival @brave @ParedesLJavi I wonder do you have it on all 3 channels in Brave? I mean Brave Beta and Brave Nightly.
English

@SergZh_ @bvsriram @BrendanEich @XboxSurvival @brave @ParedesLJavi Chrome incognito queries works well
English

@the404coder @bvsriram @BrendanEich @XboxSurvival @brave @ParedesLJavi it would be helpful, thanks. And could you share also what device do you have?
English

@bvsriram @BrendanEich @XboxSurvival @brave @SergZh_ @ParedesLJavi On both actually, normal tabs work well only the first queries in the private tab is the issue.
I can share the video if you want.
