You nailed it! I tried my MacOS password and it opened right up. Thank you SO much this has been so annoying.
Actions for anyone else with this dilemma the order is
- settings
- additional settings
- autofill (at the bottom)
- passwords
from there you can click on the 3 dots to get copy/edit/remove options and you’ll get prompted to log in. As noted it wants your Mac password not your Brave password as I had assumed.
Interestingly it only prompts once to log in or I’d add a screenshot.
