@Spatel59

iOS . . . Do you have

  • ‘Private Browsing Only’ Enabled ?

  • ‘Block Popups’ Enabled ?

Yes they are both enabled

@Spatel59

Guessing, that the Ad-Blocking component for Brave Browser iOS, was updated.

And, might need work @fanboynz ?

An update for ios will go out, not sure if it’ll fix all popups (give it 48hrs). There is so many randomised adservers on various sites we can’t cover on ios.

When we get cosmetic filtering in ios it should help improve the popup issues
