Brave on Android gradually takes up storage space

Description of the issue: Android browser gradually takes up storage space

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Time used for browsing the internet

Expected result: Started from about 100 MB, now up to 1.1 GB

Brave Version( check About Brave): 1.8.112

Mobile Device details Android 9; SM-J260A

Additional Information:

Have you tried clearing temporary files? I think Brave downloads pieces of web pages as you browse. When I check for updates in the Play store or once a month from the system settings, my phone will ask if I want to clear some space. I usually empty out the temporary folders.

In my settings, I went into the Brave app and I discovered there was a clear cache setting. I cleared its cache and now it’s down to 202 MB. Thanks so much
