Wondering if anyone else has this issue…Still noticing this issue Description of the issue:
Brave shows a blank page when a link opens in a new incognito tab How can this issue be reproduced?
Quit Brave Completely
Open a new incognito tab in Brave
Go to brave Homepage
Scroll down to GitHub
Click on GitHub
Shows about:blank
Expected result:
Should go to GitHub page instead of showing a blank page Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.60.1 (23.12.15.0) Mobile Device details
iPad 5th Gen(iOS 16.7.3) Additional Information:
Works Fine in incognito tab on safari
No difference with shields down
Noticed this on other websites(Intermittent issue)
Is Github on your favorites within the dashboard? If not, just trying to understand where it is you’re at and where the Github link is located.
Also, is it just going to github.com or is it set to a certain repository or whatever, such as https://github.com/brave?
Does nothing else open to about:blank? It’s just the Github link you’re opening that happens routinely?
When you say noticed this on other sites, but as an intermittent issue, are those also being launched from your homepage or does this just happen while browsing? (Just trying to see if anything seems to be shared in common)
This only happens when in Private?
Not necessarily related to your issue, but are you aware they 16.7.4 that should be available for your iPad 5th Gen? Then for newer devices, they are on 17.2.1. I just mention as I tend to keep OS and apps all updated, so thought I’d mention in case you hadn’t thought to check lately.
and tapping on any link in the description box takes me to a about:blank page and even if I close the blank page and retry same thing happens
When I follow the same instruction for safari private browsing, it works perfectly fine - However In Brave It works perfectly when I press and hold on the link and then click open in a new incognito tab
Just adding a “me too”. iPad Mini 4 on iOS 15.8. I used to not have any problems, but now 99% of the time any link on any web page that navigates to a different site results in about: blank. About 25% of the time if I go back to the original tab and click the same link again, the redirect will work. Otherwise, I must tap-hold and choose “Copy clean link” and then open a new tab manually and Paste-and-go.
I think I was running a fairly old version of Brave up until a month ago when I finally updated it, so I can’t say this is a recent problem in Brave itself. But it absolutely started right after I updated to the latest version.
