nothing I can think of!
This is really baffling. A feature that is called „favourites“ can’t be customised or synced. It really should rely on bookmarks because what are those if not my favourite links.
Lacking a homepage button is bad for me. But when the replacement is this bad Brave is having a hard time becoming my default browser on iOS.
You can add favorites to your new tab page on iOS but they are not synced with other devices.
Simply go to a website of your choice, tap on 3dot menu → ‘Add to Favorites’, you can remove existing favorites as well
Right, another way is to use regular ‘Add bookmark’ button and change save location to ‘Favorites’.
This should also work for existing bookmarks when you edit them
This works, but has some serious drawbacks. First of all, favs still don’t sync over OSes, so I have to set it up on different systems multiple times (and the option you describes only works on one of the three I tested). But worst of all, when I move a bookmark to favs on IOs the bookmarks vanishes from bookmarks and is sync-deleted on the other devices. I also can’t move the faved bookmark back to the normal bookmarks.
This is really a mess.
Can’t I even get a simple bookmark bar where I put my most necessary links to be synced across systems?
