Brave clearly is deceiving its users about deleting history and it actually retains all of your history. You can see for yourself by going to Get Started in the settings and select “Continue where you left off”, then go and manually clear everything for all time. Wait 30 seconds, close the browser, wait some more then open it again and all of your history is still there. Just shows, Brave is a data collecting scam. If you manually clear everything before closing the browser that is technically where you left off, with a clean cleared slate but apparently thats not the case with Brave
For me, I can not save any settings for Clear Browsing History On Exit. The save button is grayed out regardless of what is selected or not selected. But it doesn’t matter anyway, regardless if I could save those settings to clear everything on closing brave obviously does not delete your history
Hello @ThisBrowserIsAScam, thank you for bringing this to our attention. Brave does NOT collect, monitor, or store user data. To know how to delete browser data efficiently, please read:
Same problem happening here. No matter which option you select, the Save button doesn’t enable. I also have Brave Rewards enabled, I don’t know if this changes anything.
I’ve found a *solution for this problem. Brave allowed me to save my settings on the “on exit” tab accessing it via Menu / Settings / privacy and security / Clear browsing data, instead of accessing it directly through Menu / More tools / Clear browsing data…
