How to update manually the ad shields?

How can I update manually the ad block (filters) for both mobile and desktop?

Thank you

On desktop, visit brave://components to update ad filters. Thanks!

Thank you @Evan123 !
Do you know if those are updated automatically? I went to that page and clicked to start an update, but it said they were already up-to-date.

Also does that works for android app too? Or do the filters update automatically there too? (in case the whole app or program isn’t up-to-date to the latest version)

@Jaki filer lists and components should automatically update for all devices. Manual updates generally aren’t needed for those except just if you want to ping for update a little quicker.

That’s good to hear @Saoiray. Does that start in a specific version and after (for both android and computer) ? I mean I think some old versions of early 2021, where the ad shields does not work (is not filtering)
I’m more interested to know on the android app
