Troubleshooting technical issues is much easier when both the user and support agent practice clear communication. For this reason, we have provided the template below for you to fill out with information about your issue. Please provide as much detail as possible so we can most efficiently resolve your problem.

Description of the issue: I hid the privacy stats on the new tab page, but I want it back and there seems absolutely no way to do that. I think that’s very weird, I went through all available settings and it’s just nowhere! On desktop you’re able to hide and then show it again, but on mobile this option seems to be missing… This must be some flaw.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open a new tab
  2. Hide the privacy stats (click the little eye-thingy)
  3. They’re gone. No possible way to retrieve it.

Expected result: That one is able to hide and then show it again, just like on desktop. I’m sure that’s how it’s supposed to be working by design.

Brave Version( check About Brave): 1.48.160

Mobile Device details: Pixel 6 Pro, Android 13 (beta 3.1)

@Fizey It works in a similar way as Desktop. When you hide it from NTP, it vanishes from there. To get it to show again, you need to go to Settings → New Tab Page and enable Brave Stats again.

The only difference is Desktop has the Customize button available at NTP page as a shortcut and Android doesn’t.

Thank you man! Damn, I must’ve overlooked it. I was searching for an extensive time but really couldn’t find it. Good to know now where that setting is located.
