Change user agent in Brave Android Browser

I want to change my android Brave browser user agent to

Mozilla/5.0 (Android 7.0; Mobile; rv:54.0) Gecko/54.0 Firefox/54.0

Is this possible? I have rooted android phone with Android 10. AOSP custom rom.

It can be easily done on firefox with addon and on kiwi browser with extension.

How i can do this on Brave Browser for Android?

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe this is presently possible in Brave. That said, we are working to add support for extensions in an future release, which will allow ua-switching. If you don’t mind, what is your use-case for this request? Thanks!

Possible to get similar lightweight results on brave? I have old device, so ff google search results are way faster.

@poxion I think by enabling Script blocker for Google via Brave icon at URL bar will give you the “expected result”.

@eljuno Is correct; by blocking scripts on Google, you should get the desired results.

Hello, @boilscighxu. You can achieve these results by blocking Scripts on the page. To block scripts, click the small lion (:lion:) icon to the right of the address bar, and turn off scripting. I hope this helps.
