Summary: When viewing a site that requires storing a cookie, Brave mobile is preventing display of the notification even when cookies have been allowed, shields are off, etc.
Brave mobile: 1.58.135, Chromium 117.0.5938.140
OS: Android 12; Build/SP1A.210812.016
Device: Samsung S10+
Details: This site (https://villagecentrecinemas.com) requests first-time users to “select a location” which is stored in a cookie. When first going to the site, it displays the “select a location” and about two seconds later displays a “cookie” notification. But this doesn’t happen on Brave mobile. It does appear correctly as expected on Edge mobile and Firefox mobile. On Brave mobile, instead of displaying the cookie notification, at the two-second mark, a shadow is placed over the entire screen and no user input is recognized or accepted; i.e., the screen is now locked. Despite enabling cookies for this site, enabling cookies for all sites, disabling the shield, everything I could think of, it continued to exhibit this behavior.
Note that the site allows the user to bypass the notification and not make a selection by tapping elsewhere on the screen. Taking this option will result in the site behaving always as if the user had never visited; i.e., is a first-time visit. Again, this works correctly under Edge mobile and Firefox mobile but does not on Brave mobile.
[NOTE: I tried to upload all the images but it is still considering me a “new user” . I can provide more the rest upon request.
