Brave closes all open tabs and recovers them after some time randomly

Description of the issue:

Note: I use Brave only on my Android device (Galaxy A34) and both my phone and apps are always up to date. I did use it on other devices before but that was a long time ago.

So,
A few weeks ago, while browsing the web on my phone, suddenly the page I was browsing and all other tabs in the background got closed and I faced a new blank tab. Then I force closed Brave, cleared the cache, restarted the app but to no avail.

Then I tried to recover my tabs by finding the links in my browsing history and manually recovering them. I recovered some, accepted my fate and kept using like that.

A few weeks passed by and today, those disappeared tabs all got restored by itself aaaaand nooooow, the tabs I collected during these few weeks got lost…

I tried to recover by installing Brave on my laptop and adding it to my sync chain and trying to access my lost tabs but the app only shows currently open tabs of my phone session.

What the hell is going on and how can I fix it? I’ve lost so much tabs

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Use Brave on Android
  2. Use sync feature
  3. Be unlucky

Expected result:
Not randomly losing tabs?
