**Description of the issue: I’ve paid for the premium search and made sure I associated it with the email account for my existing Brave browser account (this was a recent problem I had to fix). When I open my Brave search browser on my phone it automatically defaults to the premium search with no problems. When I open my Brave browser on my desktop PC and I enter text in the search bar it opens the Brave search window, but it doesn’t show my blue shield in the upper right corner and it isn’t a premium search screen. I have gone to the settings icon in the upper right corner and enabled “ad-free search results” and gone through the steps to get the link and log in to my brave premium account and open the brave premium search window, but once I close my browser it seems to forget all that and when I open my browser again it starts at the non-premium search bar. How do I make Premium my default search without having to go through all those extra steps?
Thanks for your help.
I maintain a bookmark: https://search.brave.com near the top of all bookmarks; and, I only use the Brave Search Engine’s search field (NOT: the URL address field).
